Aerosmith is an American Hard Rock band, sometimes referred to as "The Bad Boys From Boston" and "America's Greatest Rock And Roll Band." Their style, rooted in blues-based hard rock, has come to also incorporate elements of pop, heavy metal, glam, and rhythm and blues, which has inspired many subsequent rock artists. The band was formed in Boston, Massachusetts in 1970. Guitarist Joe Perry and bassist Tom Hamilton, originally in a band together called the Jam Band, met up with singer Steven Tyler, drummer Joey Kramer, and guitarist Ray Tabano, and formed Aerosmith. By 1971, Brad Whitford had replaced Tabano, and the band began developing a following in Boston. Their first gig under the name Aerosmith was at Mendon Nipmuc High School.After a gig at Max's Kansas City, they signed a deal with Columbia Records and released a string of multi-platinum albums on the label, beginning with their eponymous 1973 debut album (their song "No Surprize" describes this series of events). In 1975, the band broke into the mainstream with the album Toys In The Attic, and their 1976 follow-up Rocks cemented their status as hard rock superstars. By the end of the 1970s, they were among the most popular hard rock bands in the world and developed a loyal following of fans, often referred to as the "Blue Army."Drug addiction and internal conflict took their toll on the band, which resulted in the departures of Perry and Whitford in 1979 and 1981 respectively; Jimmy Crespo and Rick Dufay replaced them. The band did not fare well between 1980 and 1984, releasing a lone album - Rock In A Hard Place - which went gold but failed to match their previous successes.Perry and Whitford returned in 1984 and the band signed a new deal with Geffen Records, but it wasn't until the band sobered up and did a groundbreaking crossover duet with rap group Run–D.M.C. of their old song, "Walk This Way," that things began to turn around; the success of the song catapulted Aerosmith back into the limelight, and it helped rocket rap music into the American mainstream in the process. The band released Permanent Vacation in 1987, which helped solidify their comeback, and all throughout the late 1980s and 1990s, they scored several hits and won numerous awards for music from the multi-platinum albums Pump (1989), Get A Grip (1993), and Nine Lives (1997). Their comeback has been described as one of the most remarkable and spectacular in rock 'n' roll history. After over 40 years of performing, the band continues to tour and record music.Aerosmith is the best-selling American hard rock band of all time, having sold 150 million albums worldwide, including 66.5 million albums in the United States alone. They also hold the record for the most gold and multi-platinum albums by an American group. The band has scored 21 Top 40 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, nine #1 Mainstream Rock hits, four Grammy Awards, and ten MTV Video Music Awards. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2001, and in 2005 they were ranked #57 in Rolling Stone magazine's 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.The band (as a whole) also starred in three video games thus far: the arcade Light Gun Game Revolution X, and a Guitar Hero game with their namesake, and a short lived virtual music game "Quest For Fame." Apparently, they have made more money off Guitar Hero: Aerosmith than they have off any of their albums.The band ran into more problems in the late 2000s. Tensions arose as Tyler took time out to treatment for painkiller addiction and surgery plus blindsiding the other members by becoming a judge on American Idol. With Tyler & Perry at loggerheads things got to the point where it was reported the band were looking for a new singer, however the band patched things up, started work on a new album and completed a combined South America/Asia tour in late 2011.After recording and touring in 2012 and an ill-advised appearance on 60 Minutes that threatened to re-ignite old tensions in the band, their fifteenth studio album, Music From Another Dimension, was released in November 2012 to mixed reviews before Aerosmith completed the second leg of their tour in December 2012. The band continued to tour over the next couple of years, and Tyler released a solo country album in 2015.The band are currently not under contract to any record label. A sixteenth and possibly final studio album has been under discussion, and the band embarked on what they said might be their final tour in 2016 - the European tour dates were advertised as the final chance to see Aerosmith live in those countries. The Aero-Vederci Baby! tour concluded in September 2017. Perry said that the band was planning to tour again for their 50th anniversary in 2019, but instead the band announced a residency in Las Vegas starting in 2019. This went ahead but was cut short due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, and a planned European tour was also postponed. Brad Whitford has gone on record with his doubts about the band ever performing together again, citing dysfunctional relationships between the band members and their advancing age (all of them are around seventy years old or more).In spring 2023, the band announced its "Peace Out" farewell tour, originally intended to run from September 2023 to January 2024. However, after the first three shows, Tyler suffered damage to his vocal cords and was ordered by his doctors to rest his voice for at least 30 days. The injury was later found to be worse than originally thought; as a result, the rest of the tour has been postponed to 2024. Joey Kramer is not taking part, replaced by John Douglas on drums. | |

Darker and Edgier: Aerosmith's second album, Get Your Wings, sounds considerably darker lyrically than their debut. (This could also be interpreted as Hotter and Sexier, since the edginess is mostly sexual in nature.) | |

Sex, Drugs and Rock & Roll | |
Aerosmith (Music) / int_16e94b0a | comment |
Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll: One of the iconic examples, though no drugs since their break-up and reformation in The '80s. Not for nothing were Steven and Joe called the Toxic Twins. Jerry Garcia once said they were the druggiest bunch of guys he's ever met. Jerry Garcia. Think about that for a second. After he got clean, Steven Tyler reportedly said, "Sex, Drugs, Rock and Roll. Get rid of the drugs, more time for the other two!" | |

Power Ballad | |
Aerosmith (Music) / int_2100e8c2 | comment |
Power Ballad: This hadn't quite been fully codified as a trope when "Dream On" was recorded, but the song was definitely a major influence on the style, then later on they began specializing in these, with huge hits like "Crazy" and "I Don't Want to Miss A Thing". Even before then, they had songs like "You See Me Crying" and "Home Tonight". | |

Sound-Effect Bleep: In "Legendary Child", the backing vocals create this effect at one point: In "Just Push Play," they count on radio stations invoking this. They sing it uncensored in concert, however. "Don't Get Mad, Get Even" gets cut off during the chorus at one point, with a series of six bleeps before the music continues normally. | |

Rearrange the Song | |
Aerosmith (Music) / int_b24ce4b2 | comment |
Rearrange the Song: "Let The Music Do The Talking" was originally released in 1980 by The Joe Perry Project, the band Perry formed after leaving Aerosmith. When Joe Perry returned to Aerosmith for 1985's Done With Mirrors, the band did their own version: The arrangement was extremely similar to the Joe Perry Project version and the chorus was exactly the same, but Steven Tyler rewrote the verses, altering the vocal melody and using entirely different lyrics. A "Rock Mix" of "I Don't Want to Miss A Thing" was released as a B-Side of the regular version - the main difference is that the string section is de-emphasized in favor of some added lead guitar parts. | |

Hypocritical Humor: One may think this of the song "Eat the Rich," given that by the time Get A Grip was released the band were all multimillionaires, but it's ultimately subverted. The song rails against trust-fund babies who squander their inherited wealth, while the members of Aerosmith come from fairly humble, working-class roots and didn't become wealthy until the band hit it big. | |

Shout-Out: The lines "She was buns up and kneeling / I was wheeling and dealing" in "Girl (Keeps Coming Apart)" were taken from Frank Zappa's "Dinah-Moe-Hum". "Ain't That a Bitch" has a very subtle one to Arsenic and Old Lace. "Livin' On The Edge" paraphrases "You're A Better Man Than I" by The Yardbirds ("If you can tell a wise man by the color of his skin, then mister, you're a better man than I"). "Falling In Love" borrows a lyric from The Rolling Stones ("But you like the way I hold the microphone"). | |

Dream Within a Dream | |
Aerosmith (Music) / int_d54f84cb | comment |
Dream Within a Dream: A variation in "Amazing". The video showed a guy living fantasies by VR with Alicia Silverstone. In the end, it's shown itself to be a VR fantasy of Alicia Silverstone. | |

Unusual Euphemism | |
Aerosmith (Music) / int_d848560f | comment |
Unusual Euphemism: From "Love In An Elevator": "I'll show you how to fax in the mailroom, honey / And have you home by five!" In fact, they ADORE this trope in their faster songs... | |

Drugs Are Bad: "Monkey on My Back". Credit for them talking from experience here. Tom Hamilton has always been particularly vocal about the impact the band's addictions had on them. | |

Surreal Music Video | |
Aerosmith (Music) / int_ecf2949f | comment |
Surreal Music Video: "Pink" and "Falling In Love (Is Hard On The Knees)". "Livin' On The Edge" is mostly a Concept Video but it also has some surreal imagery as part of the footage of the band performing. | |

Fading into the Next Song | |
Aerosmith (Music) / int_f3cf057b | comment |
Fading into the Next Song: Rocks has the siren that ends "Last Child" continuing onto "Rats In The Cellar", and "Sick As A Dog" segueing into "Nobody's Fault". "Young Lust" segues into "F.I.N.E.*" in Pump. Get Your Wings has the cheering that ends "Train Kept-A-Rollin'" continuing onto "Seasons of Wither" (where it then fades into the wind blowing). | |

Bawdy Song: Where should we begin with these?... A crowning example of a Double Entendre: "Big Ten Inch Record". It's totally NOT about a Gag Penis. Seriously. It's just about a big 10"... record. | |
