Steven Tyler wants to record a new Aerosmith album, the band’s first in 10 years.

But he and Joe Perry aren’t singing the same tune.

“I don’t know where he is, but just come down to L.A. at the end of January sometime. I’ve had enough downtime,” Tyler tells Rolling Stone.

Despite touring together, the longtime bandmates’ offstage relationship has become famously tense in recent years. A previous attempt to record the band’s first new release since 2001′s “Just Push Play” stalled.

Tyler, of course, is about to begin his first season as a judge on “American Idol,” news that Perry greeted with anger. At the time, he even discussed the possibility of replacing Tyler with a new lead singer.

“As far as Joe goes, look, the guy’s got LSD – Lead Strummer Disorder,” Tyler tells Rolling Stone. “We’ve been brothers forever. He’s just going through his thing.”

Tyler believes Aerosmith can move past its current problems and the issues his “Idol” role raised.

“I just need to get them all together and put it together to be a band that is. That’s all.”
