What’s occurring, rockers? 🤘 You might want to sit down, crack open a cold one, and let out your best Steven Tyler-style scream, because this is one collab nobody saw coming but everybody needs. That’s right — the legendary Boston bad boys Aerosmith have teamed up with Yorkshire’s chaos gremlin Yungblud for a brand-new 5-song EP called One More Time.
Yep, you read that right. The band that gave us “Dream On” and “Walk This Way” have gone shoulder-to-shoulder with the Gen Z punk prince who’s been tearing up stages with eyeliner, Doc Martens, and enough attitude to make Sid Vicious proud.
And it drops November 21, 2025. Mark that tidy date in your gig calendar, butt! 🗓️🔥
🎧 First Taste: “My Only Angel”
The madness kicks off this Friday (September 19) when the lead single “My Only Angel” drops at midnight. Expect Tyler’s soaring vocals colliding with Yungblud’s snarl in what can only be described as a generational rock handshake — or maybe a head-butt.
Rumour has it the track mixes bluesy Aerosmith swagger with a stomping punk energy. Picture Joe Perry riffing like it’s ’76 while Yungblud’s bouncing around like a hyperactive ferret in a leather jacket. Sounds lush, mun.
📀 The Tracklist – Old School Meets New Blood
Here’s the confirmed lineup of chaos and riffs:
- My Only Angel – brand new single, dropping Friday.
- Problems – a slice of punk-blues angst waiting to be screamed in arenas.
- Wild Woman – a track title that already screams feather boas, sweat, and messy eyeliner.
- A Thousand Days – potentially the big emotional one. Will Yungblud out-wail Tyler? We’ll find out.
- Back in the Saddle (2025 Mix) – yes, Aerosmith’s 1976 cowboy-riff classic has been re-imagined with Yungblud’s manic flair. Saddle up, mun. 🐎⚡
🥁 Why This Is Massive
- Aerosmith haven’t dropped new material in 13 years. Their last full studio album was Music From Another Dimension! way back in 2012. Since then, it’s been tours, Vegas residencies, and unfortunately a farewell tour that got axed halfway due to Steven Tyler’s vocal injury. Fans thought they’d never get new tunes again.
- Yungblud is at the peak of his chaos powers. He’s one of the few modern artists who genuinely channels the raw danger of old-school rock ’n’ roll. Whether you love him or think he’s just noise with better hair dye, you can’t deny he drags energy back into the scene.
- It’s a proper culture clash. Aerosmith’s blues-based sleaze colliding with Yungblud’s punk-pop anarchy? It could be brilliant, it could be unlistenable — but either way, it’ll be loud.
🎤 What the Fans Are Saying
Already, the internet’s losing its collective mind. Some classic-rock diehards are screaming “sacrilege!” while the TikTok punks are yelling “about time grandad joined the moshpit!”.
But honestly? That’s the point. Aerosmith have never been afraid of a weird collab (anyone remember “Walk This Way” with Run-DMC saving their career?). Yungblud, meanwhile, has built his entire rep on shaking up expectations.
This EP could be the bridge between generations — dads and daughters blasting the same track in the car, one yelling “Steven Tyler’s a god!”, the other shouting “Yungblud saved rock!”.
🕶️ What to Expect Live
No tour’s been announced yet, but don’t be shocked if this thing spawns a few one-off shows or even a cheeky festival slot. Imagine Glasto or Download watching Steven Tyler strut onstage while Yungblud stage-dives into the pit. That’s not a gig, that’s chaos theory in practice.
🎸 Final Thoughts
This collab shouldn’t work. Aerosmith are America’s rock ’n’ roll uncles; Yungblud’s the hyperactive nephew your nan doesn’t trust near the biscuit tin. But together? This could be the kind of unpredictable fire that rock ’n’ roll thrives on.
We’ll find out when One More Time hits on November 21. Until then, crank up your speakers Friday at midnight for “My Only Angel”.
Rock isn’t dead, mun. It just got a weird haircut and teamed up with your dad’s favourite band. 🤯🤘
