    Toys In The Attic consacre Aerosmith au rang des plus grands groupes de rock. Cet album résume l'essence qui fait de la bande de Steve Tyler et Joe Perry un groupe unique : rock carré et groovant, paré de guitares tranchantes (les solos de Perry sont énormes mine de rien), le tout balancé avec une désinvolture qui confine à la classe ultime.

    The end result is easily the best Built to Spill album of the decade--an improbable late-career reawakening and heartening evidence that becoming dependable doesn't mean having to settle for being predictable.

    With the talent on display here, there's every reason to believe that the man will deliver another classic Built to Spill record someday. This isn't one, but in its best moments (and many of it's merely good moments), you'll be surprised at how little you mind.
