The title of the new album, “Hackney Diamonds“, reflects not only the location of the announcement but also the band’s desire to make this a global affair. In their own words, “While Hackney may have a special place in Hackney Diamonds, this is an authentically global moment that we aim to share with fans across the globe“.
Leading up to this extraordinary event, The Rolling Stones tantalized their fan base by releasing a sneak peek of a new track, provisionally titled “Don’t Get Angry With Me” or simply “Angry“. The band responded with humor to fans’ frustration, with the message, “Sorry, don’t be angry with me…“. A lucky few managed to access a 15-second snippet of this highly anticipated track.
“Hackney Diamonds” holds immense promise as the first original album by The Rolling Stones since their 2005 release, “A Bigger Bang“, which impressively reached No. 3 on the Billboard 200 chart. It’s worth noting that the band’s “A Bigger Bang Tour” achieved iconic status, ranking seventh among Billboard’s top 10 tours of all time. This monumental tour generated a staggering $558 million from 111 concerts attended by 3.5 million devoted fans, as reported by Billboard Boxscore.
This new album carries an emotional weight as it marks the first Stones release since the tragic passing of their founding member, Charlie Watts, in 2021. Charlie, who had been an integral part of the band since its inception in 1962, played an essential role in nearly every recorded song. In his absence, the band has continued to captivate audiences with the exceptional drumming skills of Steve Jordan.
Despite their seniority, The Rolling Stones show no signs of slowing down. Mick Jagger, who turned 80 on July 26, retains his exceptional vocal prowess and physical energy. Their “No Filter” North American tour, initially delayed by the pandemic, resumed in the fall of 2021, shortly after Charlie Watts’ passing. Additionally, they embarked on a multi-date “Sixty” tour of Europe last year, celebrating an astounding six decades in the music industry.
As fans eagerly await the release of “Hackney Diamonds” and the exclusive livestream event with Jimmy Fallon, The Rolling Stones reaffirm their enduring legacy and legendary status in the world of music. This revelation signifies an exhilarating new phase in the band’s illustrious journey, offering fans a glimpse of rock ‘n’ roll brilliance once again.
