SYDNEY, Australia (SONY BMG Australia) - The
Backstreet Boys have proved their enduring relevance in Australia, with their new single 'Incomplete' debuting at an immense No 1, five years after their last release here. It's been said a lot lately, but it's oh-so true - Backstreet's back!
'Incomplete' has been taking the world by storm as an out-of-the-box hit, rocketing straight to a No 1 Most Added track at Australian radio in its first week, then following that up by smashing into the ARIA singles chart for a No 1 debut. The single has achieved huge results internationally too, hitting the Top 10 in the US, No 1 in Brazil, No 2 in Italy and No 3 in Germany, Denmark and Switzerland.
It's the first single from the Backstreet Boys' much anticipated new album, 'Never Gone', which is in stores this Sunday. The fourth studio release from the guys since their debut in 1997, it's been a long time coming, but it's definitely been worth the wait!
'Never Gone' is the first studio album from the Backstreet Boys in almost five years, but today, nearly a decade since their initial success - and following a healthy three-year breather - the boys admit that they needed time to catch up, grow up and gain some perspective on the whirlwind of fame. Having sold 73 million albums, they're one of the most successful all male vocal pop groups ever, so it's easy to see why a bit of time off was necessary!
Luckily for us, they're back on track, and have an amazing new album to drive that point home.
Featuring their trademark vocal harmonies but with a freshness that pushes them to the top of the pop table, the Backstreet Boys' latest album 'Never Gone' proves that timeless melodies and undeniable talent will always endure the test of time.
