The song, called Doom and Gloom is below. My friends like it. They think it's a strong Mick performance. I'd agree with that. He sounds good. Maybe re-doing cutting floor songs from Exile and Some Girls got him in touch with his 70s self.
Or maybe since he and Keith are patched up after Keith's tell-all book, Mick's feeling good.
The production is nicely stripped down but I don't know - it's not totally kicking my ass. What do you think?

I heard it on my local classic rock station yesterday morning while heading to work. Turned up the volume and was pleasantly surprised. It has a bit of Undercover period vibe. I haven't paid much attention to any new Stones since Voodoo Lounge, though it's nice to hear a solid effort from them.
It's totally kicking my ass! Good job by the guys!
It's a solid groove, but as a song it's not doing much for me. In my opinion the Stones haven't done a great "message song" since "Highwire" back in '91. I don't think it's "greatest hits" material at all. But not terrible. They've done far, far worse.
Not bad at all... I like it.
