As the group
continues to put the finishing touches on its eagerly awaited new album,
the Backstreet Boys have settled on a title and release date for the effort,
as well as its first single.
Sources tell
MTV News that the Boys will deliver "Black And Blue," their third studio
album, to stores on November 21. Fans will get a taste of the new LP on
October 3 when the first single, "Shape Of My Heart," hits radio.
The group gave
fans their first glimpse of what awaits on the album last month with "It's
True," a new track included on a series of CDs made available through Burger
King (see Backstreet Boys Say 'It's True' On Burger CDs"). That song turned
up on a series of three CDs released by the fast-food chain that also included
live Backstreet material.
While the rest
of the new album remains under wraps, Backstreet Boy A.J. McLean has said
that fans can expect to see various influences, from rock and R&B to
hip-hop and country (see "Backstreet's A.J. Dishes On New Record").
The disc will
also find the Boys once again teaming with pop mastermind Max Martin, who
produced the group's first two albums, as well as tracks for 'NSYNC and
Britney Spears.
