Aerosmith have teamed up with Rolling Stone to premiere tracks from their forthcoming album, “Music From Another Dimension.”
Up first was “Oh Yeah,” a song the band played live on their summer tour. Hear it here.
The latest premiere features “Beautiful,” a tune co-written and co-produced by Marti Frederiksen, a close collaborator since Aerosmith re-emerged as a major act in the MTV era.
"He can take a fart and make it a chorus," Steven Tyler says of Frederiksen's skill at the Pro Tools monitor. And bassist Tom Hamilton calls him a challenging creative partner, "because the guy thinks and works so fast. He goes for it."
"Beautiful" emerged during 10 days of songwriting sessions at Frederiksen's home studio in Los Angeles, where guitarist Brad Whitford came up with the song's foundation in an unusual chord pattern. "They were like jazz changes. It was odd," says Whitford, and Frederiksen suggested they model the chorus after Slash's melody line in Guns N' Roses' "Sweet Child o' Mine."

Due November 6, “Music From Another Dimension” is the band's 15th studio record.
Two days after the album is released, Aerosmith kick off the second leg of "The Global Warming Tour" with guests Cheap Trick in Oklahoma City.
