Aerosmith : Jaded
Aerosmith still deliver the shop-soiled goods with a lot more grace and humour than Fred Durst ...
Though the exciting news that Aerosmith had lapsed back into their louche ways turned out to be a false alarm, this still has that last-night-before-the-Priory air. While the leching over young girls in the videos looks grimmer with every passing year (and it wasn't exactly pretty in the first place), Aerosmith still deliver the shop-soiled goods with a lot more grace and humour than Fred Durst would ever manage. In fact, their joie de vivre is at such full throttle they even pull off the irony in the title, something their few surviving peers would never dare attempt.
