Aerosmith is an American rock band playing a hard rock reminiscent of British bands the Rolling Stones, the Who, Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin. Yet they play their hard rock with old-fashioned American attitude -- and have been doing so since the '70s. Unlike most of their British counterparts, American hard rockers Aeromsith were able to evolve over time and play pop rock hits for over 30 years. In fact, they're still releasing albums and performing new hits today.
Aerosmith was one of the most popular hard rock bands of the '70s, setting the style and sound of hard rock and heavy metal for the next two decades with their raunchy, bluesy swagger. The Boston-based quintet found the middle ground between the menace of the Rolling Stones and the campy, sleazy flamboyance of the New York Dolls, developing a lean, dirty riff-oriented boogie that was loose and swinging and as hard as a diamond.
