Are the rolling stones sh*t?

[danny la rouge]

Ooft, no, sorry boys, I couldn’t listen past the point the auto tune kicked in big style. It’s great you’re still rocking. But not for me, thanks.

 

[JimW]

I should imagine it's the multimillionaire exiles who really are best placed to capture the spirit of Hackney.

 

[seeformiles]

I’m pleasantly surprised by the new single - not great but much better than the filler I was expecting. Still got a lot of love for the first band whose name I was stirred to write on my school bag in 1976. Brand loyalty is a terrible thing

Eye witness reports amd everything on the Hackney thread.

The new single

If anyone else released that I'd think 'fuck me this is shit' and so would everyone else. At this point the RSs could release fart noises and some people would love it anyway.

 

[not-bono-ever]

No more. Haven’t we suffered enough?

 

[not-bono-ever]

Let’s hope they do a world tour withy Lenny Kravitz supporting. With his song

 

[ska invita]

If I've understood the lyrics of the new single correctly it's I Can't Get No Satisfaction, the Viagra years

 

[mojo pixy]

"Why you angry with me?" whines entitled boomer over plodding dirge.

Well now.

Well now.

He’s not a boomer, though. He was born in 1943, during the War. Boomers were born after the War, by definition.

 

[Voley]

Whenever they bring a new one out, I end up thinking 'Well, it's nice to hear them again but that's not that great' and that's exactly what I think with this one. The exception being the recent blues album that I thought was great. I thought this new one might go a bit Start Me Up at one point but it didn't.

If I got the chance to see them one more time I would. Both times I've been they were still great live.

 

[seeformiles]

Tbf do geriatric punks have much to say about anarchy these days? The Rebellion Festival isn’t really as advertised. We’re all old bastards.

 

[editor]

Great video, mind.

Well now.

tbf he. made a lot of women angry over the years

all the children a test to that


good video at least

 

[Aladdin]

Sounds like Micks voice has been digitally altered.
As for the typical video style...girl a quarter the age of Mick et al..girating in a red car.... ..old..out of touch...not for me I'm afraid.

Mick et al all look like AI versions of themselves.

agree, embarrassing, old enough to be any of their grand daughters... dirty old man vibe especially when combined with the lyrics

Probably are, it worked for ABBA why not the Stones?
Catchy enough ditty but not likely to end up being one for the hall of fame.

hmm so you mean the 80 year old man who married to a 36 year old . don't think you going to get many people saying he is not dirty old man



but the billboard with deaging effect across Thier back catalogue images was nicely done

True and true

Yeah alright clever clogs, he's from the "silent generation" then

Oh if only.

Yes, my point was that their fans might have been boomers, but they weren’t. The people we listened to were boomers. Johnny Rotten is a boomer. Joe Strummer was a boomer.

Yes, which is why I lumped him in. I expect he thinks he's speaking for them in some way, like Claptout does (he was born in 1945, but before the end of WW2)

 

[Ming]

I thought it was fucking brilliant. Really enjoyed it. In fact i wished they'd released it at the start of the Summer. Looking forward to the whole album now.

 

[not a trot]

Last Stones record I bought was, Angie. I was going out with a girl called, Angie Green, at the time.

 

[Brainaddict]

I have no interest in listening to them now and that new single is bobbins, but if I had heard Paint It, Black or Gimme Shelter in the 60s I'm pretty sure I would have been blown away. At this point they're kind of drifting outside of their own time with a back catalogue that includes a few great bangers. I never make an effort to listen even to those because you hear them anyway, but I wouldn't deny their power and influence at the time.

You have to make a bit of an effort to listen to 'as tears go' by or 'let it bleed' or 'wild horses' which you hear never otherwise. Sympathy for the devil isn't played anywhere near as often as it deserves to be either.

Whereas we ought to pick just one of them to copy

She could be one of their great grandaughters.
