It could've been better if they:
1) cut it down to 11-12 tracks (the same applies to VL)
2) work more on production and arrangements (sometimes it sounds "thin")

you know why i like you-well,...
when i used to do coke i knew this guy named steve who had the most low grade,7th generation blow you'd ever seen.i even had a name for it"stepped on steve"
now my actual person got these ki's from fla that when you bought it from him he would take out a big knife[ sometimes cutting through packaging]and ..well you get the idea.
but there was always a time,usually about the crack of dawn[two days removed]when you ran out.----- wasnt home so we had to-...call...steve....
i just went from some stuff that a week before was in a styrofoam cooler being thrown off the deck of a fishing boat in south florida to..."stepped on steve."
However-there was always someone,at some point who would look up and say"hey,you know this isnt't that bad."
HonkeyTonkFlash you are that guy,and i thank you for it-but it's not helping.

Well, I never said ABB was Exile but what is? I still maintains that as rock albums go, it's a damned good one.

Had they cut the 6 weakest songs out of the album, it would have been just great.

Songs that should have been dropped:
Streets Of Love
Infamy
Let Me Down Slow
Biggest Mistake
maybe Back Of My Hand & Dangerous Beauty.

a bigger bang does have a lot of filler, its to be expected with 16 rolling stones songs , but there is some good stuff on the album.
infamy is good, sort of catchy tune, would have fitted into place during the early stones period.
this place is empty, typical richards ballad, good song.
rough justice, typical modern day stones rocker and well up to par for most post 1972 albums.
laugh i nearly died, sounds like a tattoo you cut, great vocals and very bluesy.
biggest mistake, fine song, never a classic though.
rainfall down, funky tune, good addition to the album.
back of my hand, sounds like an early blues demo, again never a classic but good enough for the album.
o no not you again, typical stones average rocker, nothing more.
the rest of the album is filler, 16 songs just a bit long.

Sounds like maybe nearly two albums worth of material laid down...
From Ronnie
"The guitarist told the Associated Press on Monday that the British rockers have recently been recording both original material and blues covers, with an eye toward dropping an album sometime in 2016.
“We went in to cut some new songs, which we did,” said Wood, 68. “But we got on a blues streak. We cut 11 blues in two days.” He added, “They are extremely great cover versions of Howlin’ Wolf and Little Walter, among other blues people. But they really sound authentic.”
