Aerosmith BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Aerosmith just bottom-lined the week with headlines and rock gossip worthy of their legend. On October 1st, Aerosmith and Yungblud’s new collaboration, My Only Angel, rocketed to No 1 on Billboard’s Hard Rock Songs chart. That’s the first time Aerosmith has topped that particular tally since it was created in 2020, and marks their return to the studio after a 13-year drought. The song is the lead-off for their new joint EP, One More Time, dropping November 21, and the chart success owes to over 2 million streams and 1.4 million radio impressions. Fans and critics alike are buzzing, as this is the band’s first fresh material since 2012’s Music From Another Dimension according to Billboard.

The MTV Video Music Awards at UBS Arena last Sunday turned the volume up further. Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and Joe Perry plus Yungblud and Nuno Bettencourt joined to pay tribute to the late Ozzy Osbourne, tearing through Crazy Train and then holding back a secret—which was soon revealed as My Only Angel. The post-awards moment between Tyler and Yungblud, complete with cryptic comments and a backstage embrace, sent fans into speculation overdrive on social media.

Aerosmith’s entire lineup has been confirmed for participation in the EP, though Matt Sorum subs in on drums for Joey Kramer, who remains retired from live performance. Tyler described the collaborative energy with Yungblud as “pure electricity” and Perry confirmed the partnership was immediate and intense. Yungblud himself said making records with his heroes is rock’s comeback moment and every show feels “insane.”

Despite officially announcing retirement from touring after Steven Tyler’s prolonged recovery from a fractured larynx, Joe Perry teased to Eddie Trunk that at least one more Aerosmith live show is coming, with further details guarded by Live Nation and band insiders. The rumor mill is now in overdrive. Alternative Nation notes persistent speculation that Aerosmith and Yungblud will share the stage in November, possibly as a farewell celebration and an opportunity to perform tracks from the new EP together. Social media picked up on Tyler and Yungblud’s banter—“You started it,” “And you’ve got to finish it”—interpreting this as another hint of big news.

Elsewhere, Tom Hamilton will perform October 10 at Six String Grill and Stage in Foxborough with Close Enemies, showing that Aerosmith’s core members aren’t ready to fade away from live music altogether. Facebook and Instagram have run spotlights on Hamilton’s gig, emphasizing the band’s continued relevance even outside headline tours.

In sum, Aerosmith is everywhere this week, with My Only Angel dominating the charts, star-studded tributes, cryptic hints of more to come, and speculation swirling about future shows and social media secrets. While some developments remain speculative, the release of new music and continued appearances by band members ensure Aerosmith’s story remains front and center in rock’s current chapter.
