Charlie will probably refuse.

Now we know why Charlie looked so bummed out leaving the Paris studio with Ronnie. That red bag likley held the Stones last few ounces of self respect.

Two new songs: undoubtedly a couple of cliche-ridden toss-offs recorded and rushed out the door three months before their official release. Such is the fundamentally irrational way Stones Inc. has operated for the last 10-odd years: years of little to no activity and then a last-minute flurry of activity. There's no quality control whatsoever.

The title is an absolute joke and the outsourced artwork is abysmal.

#epicfail

Yes we had that discussion when ABB came out, they don't do a thing for years and all of a sudden they rush record and rush release some crap that was made up on the spot. Keith and Ronnie are probably too out of it to realize what's going on but surely Mick and Charlie should know better, I guess they're just taking the piss.

We're bitching about it but I'm sure many of us will have more than one version and this will be again a top seller like 40-licks was 10 years ago

Fuck you Gazza, Will ya?

We'll be doing our ordering online. No way am I walking into HMV and asking if they have a copy of 'Grrr!'

Last time I was that embarrassed in a record shop was when I was checking for an album by Anal C**t.

My favourite quote of the day comes from Dave (straycatUK)

I expected to be under whelmed today, but this is taking the piss. That cover is an embarrassment . I think I'd rather walk down the street with a Gary Glitter album cover on show...

There's clearly a strong element of humor behind it. Problem is, it's not very good humor. Say it aloud right now. Imagine telling a friend over the phone about it. Imagine Kurt Loder in the old days of MTV News announcing it.

It's a joke, indeed -- just not in the funny sense of the word.

Didn't Tony King have some input into the "Bigger Bang" title? I smell his handiwork again.

Ouch...wallet hurts... a book of pix, movie, tickets for all (most?) stateside shows and of course more space on iPhone taken up with uView app, etc..

One thing this band can say they make cutting age digital decisions, not always rite (1995 with their own release of app that wouldn't work without heavy tweaking from OS side.

Heck I just cleaned up close to 16gbs of just stones and if it wasn't bought it was ripped at 256 VBR thru iTunes cleaning up a 32 gb 4s in preparation for new phone. well I guess mick did have fun last week in studio cause to hit the $25 million number and you can see Tickets face value easily $500 plus fees..... Im in Smiley

Keith will work it into one of his quips for the upcoming shows by changing his catchphrase to saying that it's 'time to let the gorillas out'.....

I cant get the info from the website because it only takes UK preorders and not North America. I tried the links and it gets me no where. Typical RS.com, they dont even carry thier own shit or have the proper information available.
