Aerosmith: "We’re Gonna Have a Vintage Sound", Says Steven Tyler; Hits The Road On June 18th



In a brand new interview with RollingStone.com, Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler spoke about the progress of the recording sessions for the band's long-awaited new album, which is tentatively due later this year:

The band is reteaming with producer Jack Douglas ("Toys in the Attic", "Draw the Line") and, as you would expect, they're bringing back the classic Aerosmith sound. "We’re gonna have a vintage sound, 'cause we’re going to tape and a lot of good things like that," said Tyler. "We’re keeping tracks clean, not a lot of overdubs, and like I said, we’re using Jack to his fullest. So you’re gonna hear some stuff where you might think Aerosmith’s back."

According to Tyler, the sessions so far feel like back in the day. "I’m having such a good time writing again," he said. "You got the songs right now where they're like shells, with no lyrics and no melody, and I get to fill in the blanks like I did with 'Back in the Saddle' when it was just a track."

In even more good news for Aerosmith fans, the band will be hitting the road this summer. "June 18th it starts," Tyler said. "So spread the word."
