The Rolling Stones: New Album "Hackney Diamonds" To Be Released In 2023

As if the Rolling Stones' discography wasn't respectable enough already, the rockers are releasing yet another studio album this fall! Find all the info about the new record here.

In 2016, the Rolling Stones released their previous studio album, Blue & Lonesome. Then, apart from a few tours, it became quiet again around the band. In 2021, their longtime drummer Charlie Watts passed away at the age of 80. Since then, the Stones are still on the road as a trio. In 2022, the 60th anniversary of the band followed. To celebrate it, the band went on the Sixty Tour. A new single was finally released this month. "Angry" will be included on the new album and also got a music video that you can watch here:

When Is The New Album Coming Out?

At a press show in London, the band already talked about their new album. In conversation with Jimmy Fallon, they said about it:

"We wouldn't have put this album out if we hadn't liked it. I mean, we didn't want to make just any record and put it."

Moreover, Mick Jagger still remembers the "press conference" for their very first album, released in April 1964. Back then, he says, there were no photos and it was basically just a visit to the pub. Two journalists were handed the album and treated to a beer, and that was that. Today, of course, it's a little different, but the Stones still love their job, as you can definitely see when they're on stage.

Hackney Diamonds has been announced for October 20, 2023 and is already available for pre-order!
