The Rolling Stones let the cat out of the bag today (September 6th) at the live stream event in London’s Hackney district. The new album “Hackney Diamonds” will be released on October 20, 2023. And as has now been announced, the album can now be pre-ordered. There are also exclusive bundles and new merch for fans of the band.
The album will contain twelve completely new original songs. The first single is called “Angry” and will be released digitally on September 8th, 2023, as CD and 10 inch with etched B-side. Hackney Diamonds will be released in various formats on CD, vinyl and digital.
A bright green vinyl will be available exclusively from Amazon. The album will also be available there on black vinyl, as a limited bundle with CD and Blu-ray, as a digipak and as a CD in a jewel case.
Additional bundles can be pre-ordered from UDiscover
In the Store by UDiscover there is also a bright blue vinyl with slipmat featuring a shattering glass heart that smashes. A black vinyl is also available. Alternatively, the blue vinyl is also available with a t-shirt or exclusive artwork. The Blu-ray box set can also be pre-ordered here – there is also artwork here. If you decide on a CD, you can choose a hoodie or a T-shirt. Of course, the formats can also be purchased individually. All variants can be pre-ordered now. Of course, the colored vinyls in particular should be of particular interest to collectors.
Also new in the store: lots of merch with the customized Rolling Stones logo. For example, there are vinyl coasters with the artwork of the new album, but fans can also order lots of new T-shirts, guitar picks, tote bags, jewelery and even an umbrella for the release of “Hackney Diamonds”.
A music video for the first single, Angry, was also released to coincide with the live stream, directed by Francois Rousselet and starring Emmy-nominated actress Sydney Sweeney (“The White Lotus,” “Euphoria”) – watch it here .
