iTunes Review
Done With Mirrors represents an unusual stopgap in Aerosmith’s career. It's the band’s first album for Geffen and it marks Joe Perry’s return to the group after a disastrous two-album absence. Still, it’s not quite the definitive comeback album that the group would eventually achieve with Permanent Vacation. Rather, Done With Mirrors is more a goodbye to the band’s ‘70s heyday. “Let the Music Do the Talking” and “Gypsy Boots” attempt to recapture the high-velocity thrills of Toys In the Attic. “Shame on You” and “She’s on Fire” hint at the big grooves and bigger hooks that would come to fruition on Pump and Permanent Vacation. The band was realizing that they weren’t their old selves, but they had yet to envision their future. Following Done With Mirrors (the title is a reference to the band’s drug dependency) all five members completed rehab programs and re-emerged with the focus and energy needed to make Permanent Vacation a killer comeback. Done With Mirrors's subtext provides a fascinating portrait of a band in transition.

Last Good Aerosmith Album
This album was the last good Aerosmith album. This was the start of the reunited band that took over the world. After this album they recorded Walk This Way with Run DMC and they became the most popular rock band around. Unfortunately, with this broader fame came BAD MUSICAL DECISIONS. They released "Permanent Vacation" with Dude Looks Like a Lady and Love in an Elevator. All of a sudden everyone wanted to see their videos. Then came Alicia Silverstone and REALLY put the band on the pop map. The songs got worse and their popularity skyrocketed. They became a video band rather than an audio band - If you catch my drift. The vinyl had backwards text and in the text was a guy levitating or bending a fork. The title aludes to magic (ie. Smoke and Mirrors) If you are a true Aerosmith fan, the Aerosmith of the 70's, then this is an Aerosmith album you will want to buy.
Return of Aerosmith
Done With Mirrors is one of Aerosmith's most overlooked albums, in large part because it was their first release after a long hiatus of Joe Perry and Brad Whitford. The first track, "Let the Music Do the Talking," is actually a reworked song that Joe Perry released as a solo artist during his time away from Aerosmith. How you recieve this album is going to depend what kind of Aerosmith fan you are. If you're the old school, Aerosmith when they scared your parents fan, you'll be pleased. It's not Get Your Wings or Rocks, but it's almost the last lick to '70's rock. Now if, "Dude Looks Like a Lady," is where you're Aerosmith catalouge begins, this might not be accessable enough for you. Personally, I like most everything Aerosmith has done (sans Just Push Play). So Done With Mirrors suits me fine. For you '70's fans missing that old edge, GO BUY NINE LIVES. I know it was defined by "Pink," but there is plenty of heavy licks and Steven Tyler screaming on there. To me, Done With Mirrors and Nine Lives are the two most UNDERrated Aerosmith's albums out there.
