A BIGGER BANG is the 22nd British and 24th American studio album by the English rock band The Rolling Stones, released through Virgin Records on 6th September 2005. It is their most recent studio album of original compositions to date, though a follow-up has been long promised. It is also their last album of original material recorded with Charlie Watts on drums before his death in 2021. Unlike their prior effort eight years before, the sprawling and eclectic Bridges To Babylon, which had a bewildering array of producers, musical styles, and guest musicians, The Stones set out to make a basic, hard rock album that hearkened back to their 1960–70s heyday. Don Was, was brought in to co-produce the album alongside the band's principal songwriting and production team of vocalist Mick Jagger and Keith Richards. Joining the two were band members Ronnie Wood on guitar and Charlie Watts on drums, contract players Darryl Jones on bass and Chuck Leavell on keyboards, and multi-instrumentalist Matt Clifford. Most of the basic tracks were recorded as a simple trio of Jagger, Richards, and Watts, with overdubs added later by other players. The album reach number three in the US, number two in the UK, and number one in eleven countries around the world. The lead single, "Streets Of Love", failed to chart in the US, but was otherwise successful around the world. Two other singles were released to moderate worldwide sales. The follow-up tour, which lasted two years, would become the highest-grossing tour of all time by its completion. A Martin Scorsese-directed concert film titled Shine A Light documented the tour.

A BIGGER BANG is an ambitious, wide-ranging collection of hard-hitting, high-powered rock and blues songs. Running a full sixteen tracks, it is the band's longest new album since 1972's Exile On Main Street. This has been called their best album since Exile On Main Street, which seems like pushing it. Their best since Steel Wheels, maybe. Still, there's no denying it's actually pretty damn listenable, if completely unsurprising in sound. This is studio album of original material released by The Stones. They knocked out that run-of-the-mill album of blues covers and seems they're just happy to play the same set of core material of hits and bits on the road for megabucks usually accompanied by the obligatory tie/cash-in live album and DVD. Well, there's no shortage of material, 16 songs and over an hour's playing time. Even though they'll never sound edgy, never mind dangerous again, this is a rock solid album with a back-to-basics feel to it. There are relatively few overdubs, no horn or synth blasts or lush string arrangements and only the merest of forays to old haunts like Reggae, Funk, Country and the Blues. In the main, they're definitely going the unadorned, highly-charged, guitar-led route, route one going on Route 66 if you will. All told, while this may indeed be the last time, pun intended, that we ever hear new Stones-performed Jagger-Richard songs and of course it's well below the level of their late 60's / early 70's heyday, but it is a lot better than it could have been and perhaps better than we had any right to expect.
