NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 Sometimes, you can always get what you want: On Tuesday, The Rolling Stones confirmed that they will release a new album, titled \u201cForeign Tongues,\u201d on July 10. <\/p>\n

They also released a new single, titled \u201cIn The Stars.\u201d<\/p>\n

To celebrate, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood will attend an album announcement event in Brooklyn Tuesday afternoon.<\/p>\n

The Stones\u2019 last album was 2023\u2019s \u201cHackney Diamonds.\u201d<\/a> It was their first album of original material in 18 years \u2014 since 2005\u2019s \u201cA Bigger Bang.\u201d<\/a> It was also their first full-length release since the death of drummer Charlie Watts<\/a> in 2021. He appeared posthumously on two of that album\u2019s 12 tracks. <\/p>\n

According to press materials for \u201cForeign Tongues,\u201d it 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,<\/a> the Cure\u2019s Robert Smith and the Red Hot Chili Peppers\u2019 Chad Smith.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love doing these recording sessions in London at Metropolis. It was a very intense few weeks recording \u2018Foreign Tongues,\u2019\u201d Mick Jagger said in a statement. \u201cWe had 14 great tracks and we went as fast as we could. I like the room there as it\u2019s not too big so you can feel the passion in the room from everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Stones also worked closely with Oscar-winning pop producer Andrew Watt (known for his work with Post Malone<\/a> and Justin Bieber,<\/a> and the Stones\u2019 \u201cHackney Diamonds,\u201d to name a few).<\/p>\n

A taste of \u2018Foreign Tongues\u2019<\/p>\n

Speculation surrounding a new Stones album has been going around for weeks. First, posters appeared around London with the band name \u201cThe Cockroaches,\u201d a pseudonym the Stones\u2019 have used in the past, along with a QR code. The code led to \u2018thecockroaches.com\u2019<\/a> and a sign-up page. Once a user had signed up, they received a confirmation message from Universal Music \u2014 the Stones\u2019 label. Representatives did not provide The Associated Press with comment or confirmation at the time.<\/p>\n

Eventually it led to a white label, vinyl-only release of the track \u201cRough and Twisted\u201d using The Cockroaches name \u2014 the first true tease of \u201cForeign Tongues\u201d decipherable only by their most dedicated fans.<\/p>\n

Then, in the week leading up to their announcement, billboards with the band\u2019s iconic mouth and tongue logo began appearing in major cities around the world with the words \u201cForeign Tongues\u201d in various languages: \u201cFremmede Sprog,\u201d \u201cVreemde Tongen,\u201d \u201cDayuhang Dila,\u201d \u201c\uc678\uad6d\uc5b4,\u201d and \u201cLangues \u00c9trang\u00e8res\u201d among them. Around the same time, the Rolling Stones\u2019 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 believed to be the album artwork, depicting a cartoonish collage of the members\u2019 faces. (They were correct; it was the official album cover.) There was also a short video clip, just 10-seconds long, that appeared to tease a new song.<\/p>\n

The Stones\u2019 \u2018Tonight Show\u2019 takeover<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon\u201d will host the surviving members of the Stones across three nights this month, NBC announced Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Jagger will appear on Wednesday\u2019s show and Fallon will host Richards on Thursday. Wood will appear on May 13. <\/p>\n

No additional details on whether the band will perform together on the show were immediately released.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 Sometimes, you can always get what you want: On Tuesday, The Rolling Stones confirmed…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":775537,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[136088,3881,185,193515,142409,171,57,1029,12303,43452,3466,43451,975,53324,22852,34048,89563,61,67,132,68,107],"class_list":{"0":"post-775536","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-andrew-watt","9":"tag-ap-top-news","10":"tag-celebrities","11":"tag-chad-smith","12":"tag-charlie-watts","13":"tag-entertainment","14":"tag-general-news","15":"tag-jimmy-fallon","16":"tag-justin-bieber","17":"tag-keith-richards","18":"tag-language","19":"tag-mick-jagger","20":"tag-music","21":"tag-paul-mccartney","22":"tag-robert-smith","23":"tag-ronnie-wood","24":"tag-steve-winwood","25":"tag-u-s-news","26":"tag-united-states","27":"tag-unitedstates","28":"tag-us","29":"tag-world-news"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116523530682745399","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/775536","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=775536"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/775536\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/775537"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=775536"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=775536"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=775536"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
