The Rolling Stones are gearing up to release their new album, "Foreign Tongues," on July 10 via Capitol Records, and the anticipation is building.

On Thursday, June 25, the band released two new singles off the set. One is "Jealous Lover," which the band released along with a music video directed by Chris Barrett and Luke Taylor. The other is "Divine Intervention," which features a guest appearance from the Cure's Robert Smith.

"Jealous Lover" is a groovy, feel-good Stones track that sounds like something they could have crafted back in the day. The music video features Anya Taylor-Joy and Charles Melton, so there's a touch of Hollywood here. Lead singer Mick Jagger shows off his high range on the track, as he's backed by his rocking band.

"Divine Intervention" has a little bit of everything, from blues to rock to pop. Smith adds a gothic touch to the song that only he could contribute.

"Jealous Lover" arrives after the record's first two singles, "In the Stars" and "Rough and Twisted." The band's "Foreign Tongues" album, which marks the band's 25th, was produced by Andrew Watt and features guest appearances from the Beatles' Paul McCartney, Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith and late Stones drummer Charlie Watts, who appears posthumously.

As for if the Stones will tour behind the new album, guitarist Keith Richards leaves that up in the air. "I don't know if tours are possible," he told Uncut magazine. "It's the traveling that takes it out of you."

But, he added, "I do see the possibility of us doing [a] residency somewhere. Wherever it is, London, New York, Paris, anywhere. I'll play Rome! But I don't see why they shouldn't be able to throw some shows together in a new format."
