#AEROSMITH MUSIC FROM ANOTHER DIMENSION SONGS FULL#
The band’s penchant for power ballads (a sub-genre they invented after all with 1973’s “Dream on”) are also here in full force with straightforward “What Could Have Been Love” and the sonically scarce yet intriguing string-laden closer “Another Last Goodbye.” Naturally, the stinkers that have accompanied every Aerosmith album since Draw the Line are also here to remind everyone that Aerosmith have never been perfect and never will be (“Beautiful,” “Closer”). The kickass ’70s Aerosmith gets back in the saddle for one last ride on the Stonesesque “Oh Yeah” and the groovy “Out Go the Lights,” both of which are bolstered by production from vintage Aerosmith producer Jack Douglas himself. But to someone who just listened through their entire discography in just over a week, Music From Another Dimension offers a perfect encapsulation of Aerosmith’s entire career boiled down into one LP, and that makes it a fascinating listen. Throw in a couple of Joe Perry solos (“Freedom Fighter,” “Something”) and a Diane Warren-penned ballad (“We All Fall Down”), and you get an album that sounds almost as chaotic as its album art suggests. Country crossovers featuring American Idol hangovers (“Can’t Stop Lovin You”) clash fiercely with straightforward Rockers with old-school Aerosmith implications (“Lover Alot”). Musically it’s all over the place (which may have something to do with its multiple years in development). Make no mistake about it, this is not the album to introduce to somebody who is just getting into Aerosmith. But against all odds, Music From Another Dimension delivers the goods more often than not, and has become a hidden gem in their 15-album catalog. Finally, it seemed as though by the time this album was released, the band was barely even speaking with each other, much less working cohesively together to craft what is by far their longest LP ever clocking in at well over an hour and boasting 15 songs. Not to mention, it was released over a full decade removed from their last album of completely new material which, let’s face it, was far from their best endeavor. 5 position on the Billboard chart upon release, and it got lukewarm-at-best reviews from critics.
