According to reports, the legendary rockers are on the cusp of dropping their new album and its lead single, Mr Charm
The Rolling Stones are reportedly set to release their final album this month.
According to The Sun, the legendary rockers – comprised of Mick Jagger (82), Keith Richards (82) and Ronnie Wood (78) – are on the cusp of making their return with their 25th and final record and their first new music since 2023’s Hackney Diamonds.
On April Fools Day, the band shared posters under their name The Cockroaches, which invited fans to scan a QR code.
The code invited fans to sign up for WhatsApp updates and then sent a not-so-cryptic message, which read: “Pleased to meet you. Hope you guess my name,” in a nod to their iconic 1968 single Sympathy For The Devil.
It has since been reported that the band will release a new single entitled Mr Charm this Saturday (11th April), with some reports suggesting an album called Foreign Tongues would follow.
“The Rolling Stones album has been in the can for some time now,” a source told The Sun.
“A lot of it was written and recorded a while back but there has been a lot of fine-tuning to make it perfect.
“They were back in Metropolis Studios in West London last year and now it’s ready to go.”

The source continued: “The guys are aware they aren’t getting any younger so some people are seeing this as a final album — but who knows with the Stones? They will be making some appearances together to promote it but there’s not going to be a tour yet.”
