RPG: The Earth Is Not A Cold Dead Place vs. Permanent Vacation

[Entre_Perpetuo]

Well I dig TEINACDP. It's great mood music, amazing how it can feel so profound and inspiring with just two guitars a bass and a drum set, no vocals!

 

But come on, Aerosmith.

Permanent Waves over anything.

 

I think you meant Permanent Vacation though (in the poll above)

Good catch!

I will go with the legendary band whose stuff I've actually heard before.

Aerosmith as I have never heard of the other!!

Good album, not a great album. A great tour supporting the album though.

Explosions for both. Used to be quite a big fan of these guys, may need to dig them out again

I haven't played them in a while. I should revisit too.

Permanent Vacation. Saw them at Hammersmith on that tour. Opened with Rats in the Cellar. One of the best gigs I ever saw.

Get A Grip is the first one I don't like. But I rate Rock in a Hard Place top 3, and I love Done With Mirrors.

Before PeV came out, the talk was that Angel was the best thing Aerosmith had written since Dream On. I'm not a big fan of that one myself. But I would put Rag Doll, Dude and Hangman Jury up there with pretty much any other Aerosmith.

 

What it Takes from the next album is one of the best break up songs of all time.

Pump and PV are solid comeback albums even if they are more radio friendly. GAG is where it gets shaky and it gets worse, save Honkin On Bobo.

Get A Grip has Living On The Edge though, which is an all time classic Aerosmith song in my book. Plus Cryin' is one of their best ballads, and there are a couple other great rockers on there too (Eat The Rich, Shut Up And Dance, Fever). Definitely overlong and too many ballads, but it's more of a CD era crime than anything.

I have no problems with Permanent Vacation, Pump and Get A Grip. That's the era of the band that I grew up with and made me a fan. They toured so hard for Get A Grip that I saw them three times on that tour. Edited October 25, 2021 by J2112YYZ

Pump is my very favorite Aerosmith album. The production is maybe a bit too loud... but the songs. Their best batch, no contest.
