Sometimes, you can always get what you want: On Tuesday, The Rolling Stones confirmed that they’ll release a new album, Foreign Tongues, on July 10. <\/p>\n
They also released a new single, titled In The Stars.<\/p>\n
To celebrate, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood will attend an album announcement event in Brooklyn this afternoon.<\/p>\n
The Stones’ last album was 2023’s Hackney Diamonds. It was their first album of original material in 18 years \u2014 since 2005’s A Bigger Bang. It was also their first full-length release since the death of drummer Charlie Watts in 2021. He appeared posthumously on two of that album’s 12 tracks. <\/p>\n
According to media materials for the album, Foreign Tongues will also include a special appearance from Watts from one of his final recording sessions before his death, as well as contributions from Steve Winwood, Paul McCartney, The Cure’s Robert Smith and Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith.<\/p>\n
“I love doing these recording sessions in London at Metropolis. It was a very intense few weeks recording Foreign Tongues,” Mick Jagger said in a statement. <\/p>\n
“We had 14 great tracks and we went as fast as we could. I like the room there as it’s not too big so you can feel the passion in the room from everyone.”<\/p>\n
The Stones worked closely with Oscar-winning pop producer Andrew Watt (known for his work with Post Malone and Justin Bieber, to name a few) on Hackey Diamonds, and that relationship continues with Foreign Tongues.<\/p>\n
A taste of ‘Foreign Tongues’<\/p>\n
Speculation surrounding a new Stones’ album has been going around for weeks. First, posters appeared around London with the band name The Cockroaches, a pseudonym the Stones have used in the past, along with a QR code. <\/p>\n
The code led to thecockroaches.com and a sign-up page. Once users signed up, they received a confirmation message from Universal Music \u2014 the Stones’ label. Representatives did not provide The Associated Press with comment or confirmation at the time.<\/p>\n
Eventually, it lead to a white label, vinyl-only release of the track Rough and Twisted using The Cockroaches name \u2014 the first true tease of Foreign Tongues decipherable only by their most dedicated fans.<\/p>\n
Then, in the week leading up to their announcement, billboards with the band’s iconic mouth and tongue logo began appearing in major cities around the world with the words “Foreign Tongues” in various languages: “Fremmede Sprog,” “Vreemde Tongen,” “Dayuhang Dila,” “\uc678\uad6d\uc5b4,” and “Langues \u00c9trang\u00e8res” among them. <\/p>\n
Around the same time, the band’s official website was updated to feature video clips stylized to look like surveillance footage of them in the studio.<\/p>\n
On Sunday, the band shared a slide puzzle graphic fans believe is the album artwork, depicting a cartoonish collage of the members’ faces. And they were correct; it was the official album cover.<\/p>\n
There was also a short video clip, just 10-seconds long, that appeared to tease a new song.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Listen to this article Estimated 3 minutes The audio version of this article is generated by AI-based technology.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":649924,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[49,48,75,341],"class_list":["post-649923","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-music"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/649923","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=649923"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/649923\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/649924"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=649923"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=649923"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=649923"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
