In 1993, the Backstreet Boys were considered to be just another boy bad that Lou Pearlman put together. The group consisted of five talented singers, Howie Dorough, AJ McLean, Nick Carter, Kevin Richardson and Brian Littrell. Although Kevin Richardson has decided to opt out of this album, to start up a family, his band members are still foreseeing a comeback somewhere in this singers future.

The Backstreet Boys (or should we say men) have a new album called This Is Us, which is set for European release on October 5th on RCA Records and for release in the US on October 6th on Jive Records. Said to be perhaps their best album ever this their seventh studio album and their second since losing band member Kevin Richardson, who is on a hiatus to begin a family shows great promise.

Trying to regain some of their lost momentum since their incredible Millennium album hit the charts in 1999 with hits like I Want It That Way and All I Have To Give, they are once again collaborating with producer Max Martin who was responsible for the I Want it That Way hit track.

Not only have they collaborated with Max Martin, on this album, but they also teamed with producer, songwriter Red One. Red One has successfully assisted Lady Gaga with hit singles such as “Poker Face” and “Just Dance”, therefore the Backstreet Boys felt that it would be a great plus to have her collaborate on their album, and had her produce the albums lead track, “Straight Through My Heart”.

Over the last few years The Backstreet Boys have had many highs and lows. They all had their attempts at solo albums yet nothing was ever the same as when they were together as the all American boy band. It is said that “This Is Us” is the album that will get them back on the charts. I can hardly wait!
