Backstreet Boys recording new album
Backstreet Boys The ‘I Want it That Way’ boy band are getting together ideas for their eighth album, the follow up to 2009’s ‘This is Us’, with a view to recording next year.
Singer Howie D told online TV channel Clevver Music: “That’s one of the things that we’re going to be happening this next year, is we’re going to be in the studio working on a new record.”
Howie – who is joined in the group by Brian Littrell, Nick Carter and A. J. McLean – also said, despite the band having been recording and performing since 1993, they have their “finger on the pulse” and their new record will see them work with top producers to sound fresh.
He added: "That's always the challenge working on new albums; trying to push the envelope, trying to always top the last album. But that's what we do.
“That's one of the reasons why we take our time to make the record the best it can be. To not rush it and to keep your finger on the pulse of what’s hot.”
Backstreet Boys will tour Europe in 2012 with fellow boy band New Kids on the Block, under the banner NKOTBSB, while Howie’s solo single, ‘Lie to Me’, is out now.
