The Stones have posted a teaser video, promoting something to be announced or released on June 15th. Speculation online points to a vinyl box set--it looks like a box, and you can hear some crackling (like a needle drop) before the music kicks in.

Having defined rock’n’roll in the 60s, The Rolling Stones entered their imperial phase in 1971, with Sticky Fingers. What followed is a run of albums that couldn’t have happened at any other time, by any other band: the decadent excess of Exile On Main St, the Jamaican voodoo swamp of Goats Head Soup, the disco- and punk-infused prowl of Some Girls. With each new decade, the Stones evolved while staying true to their roots, coming full circle in 2016 with Blue & Lonesome, a love letter to their first inspiration: the blues. ‘The Studio Albums Vinyl Collection 1971 – 2016’ presents this monumental era in Rock N’ Roll history in a highly bespoke, lenticular mounted, limited edition box-set housing the 15 x Studio Albums from Sticky Fingers through Blue & Lonesome in faithful & intricate original packaging replications. Every album has been lovingly remastered & cut at revelatory Half-Speed at Abbey Road Studios from vinyl specific original tape transfers designed to get the very best possible sound from the format. Each album is pressed on heavyweight 180-gram black vinyl, includes a download card for HD digital redemption of the catalogue & includes a numbered certificate of authentication. 15 STUDIO ALBUMS Sleeve presented as Andy Warhol’s original design complete with working Zip and hidden image beneath.

If you're not nice
The box will be a general release, and Amazon pre-order links have been added to the first post along with a packshot and description. Note that Amazon USA is currently $65 cheaper than ordering directly from Universal's site, so this is the way to go:
