Talk:Music from Another Dimension!

Pop Rock should be the genre

I'm a huge Aerosmith fan and owned this album since 2012, pre-ordering it. In NO WAY is this album "Blues Rock" or "Hark Rock". It's clearly all out Pop-Rock with song writers like Diane Warren and Marti Frederiksen helping out. The one quasi country themed duet ballad with Carrie Underwood and Steven Tyler is also pure pop. Blues Rock is noticable for stand out slide guitar or other electric guitar riffs; all the riffs are subdued beneath layers of vocals and miscellanous sound effects, the electric guitar and riffs washed out beneath mountains of "pop". None of the songs have Harmonica, perhaps one tune supposedly has harmonica but it must be buried beneath mountains of overdubes and it's certainly not noticeable. Sorry, I have to feel that wikipedia is betraying truth to their readers by classifying this album as "blues rock" or "hard rock" and certainly any type of "metal". Maybe the band wishes it was blues rock, or hard rock. Maybe the band recorded it to be a blues rock or hard rock album, but after mixing and overdubbing and all the layers of studio sound effects (none of which are bluesy) .. the outcome is POP Rock. It's so obviously pop that I can't find a review that will declare the music genre, so I'm not gonna edit the article back to the "pop rock" genre yet. Is there any musician out there, having listened to Music From Another Dimension" who can listen to this album and say that it sounds like Blues Rock or Hard Rock?

Last album

Considering how long it's been since this album and additionaly Steves vocal chord injury, is it worth noting the chance of this being their last album? 146.90.188.255 (talk) 08:30, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
