An ambitious, wide-ranging collection of hard-hitting, high-powered rock and blues songs, 'A Bigger Bang' is the first studio album by The Stones since '97s platinum-certified, 'Bridges to Babylon'.

'A Bigger Bang' features all new songs, and is the first studio album by The Rolling Stones since the 1997 platinum-certified 'Bridges to Babylon'.

Continuing their historic songwriting partnership, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards began the creative process in autumn 2004 and were later joined in the recording studio by Charlie Watts and Ron Wood. While in the studio recording the album, the band came up with the title 'A Bigger Bang', reflecting their fascination with the scientific theory about the origin of the universe.

'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'. Key cuts include "Streets Of Love," the first international single; "Rough Justice," and "Back Of My Hand," a raw, rough-edged new song in the classic Rolling Stones blues style. Other titles include "It Won't Take Long," "Laugh, I Nearly Died" and "Rain Fall Down" as well as two tracks featuring Keith Richards' lead vocal, "This Place Is Empty," and "Infamy."

'A Bigger Bang' was produced by Don Was and The Glimmer Twins. Was previously co-produced the Rolling Stones studio albums 'Voodoo Lounge' (1994) and 'Bridges to Babylon' (1997) as well as the new songs included in the greatest-hits collection 'Forty Licks' (2002). Was also co-produced the live album 'Stripped' (1995), and the critically hailed double-CD 'Live Licks' (2004).
