Last December, The Rolling Stones scrapped their rumored tour plans. The band rock icons been reportedly plotting stadium trek across Europe and the UK this summer. The group had been supposedly working on the routing for some time, as the band’s touring pianist Chuck Leavell and a group spokesperson recently informed press in the UK that the band is almost finished with a new album with producer Andrew Watt who helmed The Stones’ Grammy-winning 2023 LP Hackney Diamonds, and were planning to tour in support of it.
However, guitarist Keith Richards – who turned 82 last December – was unable to “commit” to the trek. Over the last few years, Richards has been battling arthritis, which he has called “benign,” and said it forced him to change his style of playing. Although he cranked out a three-song Soho Sessions set last month in New York, the grind of a full stadium tour might be a bit more challenging.
“When they [The Rolling Stones] properly sat down to discuss the tour, Keith said he didn’t think he could commit and wasn’t keen on a big stadium tour over four months,” an anonymous American music critic reportedly told the British tabloid The Sun on December 15, 2025.
They added, “The band was looking to tour earlier this year but couldn’t make it work either. It’s hard for their fans but The Stones will get back on stage when they’re good and ready.”
Now, it looks like The Rolling Stones are back, possibly for the last time.
Over the last few weeks, The group been hinting at a comeback through a series of posters splattered around London featuring the band name “The Cockroaches.” The cover has been previously used by The Stones to promote pop-up concerts. The new posters featured a QR code for a website that simply states “Who the fuck are The Cockroaches” in the exact same font style as the legendary t-shirt that reads “Who the fuck is Mick Jagger.”
Once on the website, fans were given the opportunity to sign up for updates from The Cockroaches via WhatsApp. The first message they received read “Pleased to meet you. Hope you guess my name” – a famous lyric from their legendary 1968 song “Sympathy for the Devil.” A source close to The Rolling Stones revealed to The Sun that the cryptic teasers are part of a build-up to the band’s new album.
Now, the news everyone has been waiting for is finally here.
The Stones recorded Foreign Tongues in less than a month at Metropolis Studios in West London. The once again worked with producer Andrew Watt, who helmed the band’s GRAMMY® Award-winning 2023 LP Hackney Diamonds. The band’s core of Mick Jagger, Keith Richard, and Ronnie Wood are joined by longtime collaborators Steve Jordan, Darryl Jones, and Matt Clifford. The album features a couple high-profile special guests, including Paul McCartney, Steve Winwood, Robert Smith (The Cure), and Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers).
Also, Stones drummer Charlie Watts makes a posthumous appearance on the album, with drum parts taken from one of his final recording sessions before his passing in 2021.
