## Background

Aerosmith had retired from touring after its "Peace Out" farewell run was scrapped in 2023, and [Steven Tyler](https://www.edgepedia.org/steven-tyler) suffered a life-changing throat injury that year, leaving it uncertain whether the band would record again.<sup>[7](https://www.rollingstone.co.uk/music/aerosmith-yungblud-one-more-time-cover-feature-photos-56714/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[3](https://www.analogplanet.com/content/aerosmith-and-yungblud-come-together-intersection-fierce-and-tender-one-more-time-ep?qt-related_posts=2)</sup> Yungblud, who grew up with Aerosmith's music in his family's [Doncaster](https://www.edgepedia.org/doncaster) guitar shop, performed at the final [Black Sabbath](https://www.edgepedia.org/black-sabbath) show in Birmingham on 5 July 2025 and paid tribute to Ozzy Osbourne again at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards in September, fronting a group that included Tyler and Joe Perry.<sup>[7](https://www.rollingstone.co.uk/music/aerosmith-yungblud-one-more-time-cover-feature-photos-56714/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[8](https://www.loudersound.com/bands-artists/yungblud-smashing-pumpkins-rework-zombie)</sup>

**The meeting.** On a May afternoon in 2025, Harrison met Tyler and Perry in Los Angeles, uncertain whether he was there as a songwriter, producer, or collaborator. Ahead of the meeting he had arranged, with Perry's blessing, for his producer Matt Schwartz to wait in a nearby studio, one owned by Perry's friend and occasional [Hollywood Vampires](https://www.edgepedia.org/hollywood-vampires-band) bandmate [Johnny Depp](https://www.edgepedia.org/johnny-depp), in case a session happened.<sup>[7](https://www.rollingstone.co.uk/music/aerosmith-yungblud-one-more-time-cover-feature-photos-56714/)</sup> Originally intended as a small-scale joint effort, the project grew because so many songs emerged from the recording sessions.<sup>[5](https://yungblud.fandom.com/wiki/One_More_Time)</sup> A fourth song, "Wild Woman", was worked on via FaceTime while Harrison was in [Santorini](https://www.edgepedia.org/santorini); in August the three reconvened in Florida and recorded a fifth track, a part-remix, part-new interpretation of "Back in the Saddle", the Aerosmith staple Harrison liked to play before his live shows.<sup>[7](https://www.rollingstone.co.uk/music/aerosmith-yungblud-one-more-time-cover-feature-photos-56714/)</sup> Aerosmith announced the EP on 17 September 2025, with the first single "My Only Angel" released that Friday.<sup>[9](https://www.aerosmith.com/news/-one-more-time-a-new-ep-by-aerosmith-yungblud)</sup>

## Recording and personnel

The EP was not made in the traditional band-in-a-room manner. Perry told MusicRadar that "there wasn't a single song that we did where we actually all played together", describing a process far removed from the jam-based sessions of Aerosmith's 1970s beginnings.<sup>[10](https://www.musicradar.com/artists/you-can-shake-your-head-and-say-this-isnt-real-rock-n-roll-or-you-can-look-at-it-another-way-joe-perry-says-that-when-aerosmith-recorded-with-yungblud-there-wasnt-a-single-song-that-we-did-where-we-actually-all-played-together)</sup> Tyler and Yungblud duet on every track, with Perry's guitar driving the sound; press materials also credit [Brad Whitford](https://www.edgepedia.org/brad-whitford)'s guitars and Tom Hamilton's bass.<sup>[11](https://www.universalmusic.ca/2025/09/19/aerosmith-yungblud-join-forces-for-collaborative-ep-one-more-time-out-on-november-21/)</sup> Perry used an Orange amplifier on every track on the EP, along with one of Depp's vintage Fender amps at Depp's studio and a Fender Vibroverb for the Video Music Awards performance.<sup>[12](https://www.guitarworld.com/artists/guitarists/joe-perry-amps-through-the-decades)</sup>

[Steve Martin](https://www.edgepedia.org/steve-martin)'s contribution came at the end. During a final Los Angeles session to record alternative acoustic versions, Tyler, a longtime admirer of Martin, imagined a banjo bringing "My Only Angel" to a close, reached out to him, and Martin accepted and recorded his part remotely, reported to have been captured on his iPhone.<sup>[2](https://www.universalmusic.ca/2025/11/21/aerosmith-yungbluds-collaborative-ep-one-more-time-out-today-via-capitol-records/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[7](https://www.rollingstone.co.uk/music/aerosmith-yungblud-one-more-time-cover-feature-photos-56714/)</sup>

## Songs

The EP opens with "My Only Angel", built on a stacked a-cappella vocal from Tyler and Yungblud that swells into shared harmony and closes with a Perry guitar solo.<sup>[2](https://www.universalmusic.ca/2025/11/21/aerosmith-yungbluds-collaborative-ep-one-more-time-out-today-via-capitol-records/)</sup> "Problems" places Yungblud's voice over a cinematic arpeggio and big-screen-size strings, while "Wild Woman" uses bluesy phrasing and briskly strummed chords in a vocal call-and-response.<sup>[2](https://www.universalmusic.ca/2025/11/21/aerosmith-yungbluds-collaborative-ep-one-more-time-out-today-via-capitol-records/)</sup> Apple Music's editorial notes that in sound and tone the record taps into Aerosmith's mid-1990s renaissance period, citing "Problems", "Wild Woman", and the power ballad "A Thousand Days".<sup>[4](https://music.apple.com/us/album/one-more-time-ep/1839704429)</sup> The closing "Back In The Saddle (2025 Mix)" presents the band's 1976 classic as a newly remixed 2025 version.<sup>[2](https://www.universalmusic.ca/2025/11/21/aerosmith-yungbluds-collaborative-ep-one-more-time-out-today-via-capitol-records/)</sup>

## Commercial performance

"My Only Angel" debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's Hot Hard Rock Songs chart and remained in the top 10 for three weeks. It entered at No. 20 on Hot Rock Songs and No. 23 on Hot Rock & Alternative Songs, reached the top 40 of the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, marking Aerosmith's 45th appearance on that tally, surpassed two million first-week streams, and has amassed over 22 million total streams.<sup>[2](https://www.universalmusic.ca/2025/11/21/aerosmith-yungbluds-collaborative-ep-one-more-time-out-today-via-capitol-records/)</sup> On 28 November 2025, One More Time debuted straight in at Number 1 on the UK Official Albums Chart; it also peaked at Number 1 on the Official Scottish Albums, Albums Sales, Physical Albums, Vinyl Albums, Record Store, and Rock & Metal Albums charts, spending nine weeks on the last of these.<sup>[1](https://www.officialcharts.com/albums/aerosmithyungblud-one-more-time/)</sup> In the United States it reached number 9 on the Billboard 200.<sup>[6](https://bachelor.wabash.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Final_Pages_12-12-2025.pdf)</sup>

A re-release followed on 5 December 2025, extending the running time from 19:59 to 23:31.<sup>[5](https://yungblud.fandom.com/wiki/One_More_Time)</sup>

## Reception

Critical response was divided. XS Noize's review praised the collaboration but observed that Tyler's voice, which used to sound raw, "now comes out unnaturally buffed and eerily pristine".<sup>[13](https://www.xsnoize.com/review-aerosmith-yungblud-one-more-time-ep/)</sup> A review in *The Bachelor* called the record overproduced, noting twelve harmoniously layered vocal tracks in the opening of "My Only Angel".<sup>[6](https://bachelor.wabash.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Final_Pages_12-12-2025.pdf)</sup> A summary of critical coverage described recurring themes of a revival of classic rock energy and a passing of the torch between Tyler and Yungblud, with the brief EP format concentrating the impact.<sup>[14](https://chorus.reviews/albums/aerosmith-yungblud-one-more-time)</sup>

**Future of the collaboration.** Perry declined to treat the project as a farewell, noting that the words "We're never gonna do this again" never came up in conversation.<sup>[15](https://www.allmusicmagazine.co.uk/post/ep-review-aerosmith-and-yungblud-one-more-time)</sup>
