The Rolling Stones marked their 50th anniversary with "Doom and Gloom", the lead single from the compilation GRRR!. BBC Radio 2 gave it its premiere on 11 October 2012, and a lyric video hit YouTube the same day. Making it meant getting Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood into a studio together for the first time in seven years, not since they wrapped A Bigger Bang in 2005.

Jagger and Richards wrote it, Don Was produced it, and the result is lean, mean hard rock from a band with every excuse to coast that decided not to. It picked up a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Song, and Rolling Stone named it the 18th best song of 2012.
