Heavy Song of the Week: Aerosmith and Yungblud Silence Skeptics with "My Only Angel"

"Aerosmith and Yungblud 's new collab "My Only Angel" is significant for both artists. For Aerosmith, it marks their first new music in over 12 years, not to mention their first song since Steven Tyler's vocal injury forced the band to retire from touring last year. For Yungblud, it silences some recent skeptics."

""My Only Angel" should quell some of the negativity. It's an excellent rocker with an uplifting romantic tinge, performed as a duet by Tyler and Yungblud - with the Aerosmith singer holding down the lower register, and Yungblud the higher end (a little nasally but a marked improvement from his rendition of "Crazy Train" at the VMAs). The chorus is an inspired slice of melodic hard rock, with the instrumentation powered by Joe Perry's legendary guitar playing and a steady but powerful drum track courtesy of former Guns N' Roses stickman Matt Sorum."

"Arch Enemy - "Break the Spell" If it seems like we've been telling you about Arch Enemy's Blood Dynasty album for over a year straight, it's because we kinda have. The Swedish band has elongated the album cycle even further with the announcement of a deluxe edition, which adds three new tracks, "Break the Spell" among them. We don't blame them for milking it, as the band has tapped into a rare echelon of quality and quantity, with their latest track being something"

Aerosmith and Yungblud released the collaborative single "My Only Angel," marking Aerosmith's first new music in over 12 years and the band's first song since Steven Tyler's vocal injury forced a touring retirement. The collaboration also serves to silence skeptics surrounding Yungblud after a criticized live performance. The duet features Tyler in the lower register and Yungblud on higher vocals, with an uplifting, melodic hard rock chorus. Joe Perry provides prominent guitar work and former Guns N' Roses drummer Matt Sorum supplies steady, powerful drums. Arch Enemy added "Break the Spell" to a Blood Dynasty deluxe edition with three new tracks.
