The Rolling Stones present "Foreign Tongues" - an extremely lively and dynamic new album with 14 songs, released less than three years after the globally acclaimed "Hackney Diamonds". The band's previous project topped charts worldwide, brought them a Grammy and achieved multi-platinum success, and "Foreign Tongues" continues this strong creative line with confidence, character and new energy.
Preceded by the catchy and uplifting lead single "In The Stars", the album was recorded in less than a month at Metropolis Studios in West London. For the project, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood once again worked with Grammy winner Andrew Watt, who produced and co-wrote "Hackney Diamonds".
The result is an album that bears the unmistakable signature of The Rolling Stones, but does not dwell in the past. "Foreign Tongues" sounds alive, direct and contemporary, with new nuances in sound and lyrics, without losing the raw energy that makes the band one of the most influential names in rock music history.
The recordings feature Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood, along with their longtime collaborators Darryl Jones, Matt Clifford and Steve Jordan. The album also includes a special appearance by Charlie Watts, recorded during one of his last studio sessions before his death in 2021.
The project also welcomes impressive guest musicians, among them Steve Winwood, Paul McCartney, Robert Smith of The Cure and Chad Smith of Red Hot Chili Peppers - names that add to the album's scale without shifting the focus from the core of The Rolling Stones.
With "Foreign Tongues" the band adds a new strong chapter to a legacy that has long gone beyond the bounds of a single generation. This is an album by artists who do not merely keep the legend alive, but continue to move it forward.
