The 'Don't Stop' boys reveal work has already
started on their next record.
started on their next record.
It's official… work on 5 Seconds Of
Summer's NEW album is already
underway!
The boys confirmed the news over the
weekend, when they revealed writing
session of the follow-up to their 2014
debut has already started.
"We've started writing for the next album,"
5SOS succinctly revealed to Billboard at the
iHeart Radio Festival. And what better news than
that could the #5SOSFam get to kickstart their
week?
Earlier this year the boys also confirmed they're
hoping to have the new record, which will mark
their second album after '5 Seconds Of Summer',
our sometime next year and that they can't wait
to get back in the studio to work on some new
ideas.
"We've got a lot of time coming up, actually, to
write and record again,” they told Billboard earlier
this summer. "We definitely would like to have
another album out there some time next year.
We'll start working on it and see what happens."
Ashton also revealed that the band had worked
on “upwards of 100 songs" for the first album,
but they haven’t had much chance to get in the
studio between touring commitments.
Ashton said, "We've been on tour [with One
Direction ] for a few months, so we've just been
playing lots of tour and doing lots of promo."
“We haven't had much time to get back in the
studio at the moment. I think when you're on the
road you've got to just live out what's happening,
then when you get back to the studio you've got
a lot to write about.”
“I don't want to write the same album again, so I
go out there and see what life has for me, and
then I'll go back and I'll write about it. We've got
a lot of time coming up, actually, to write and
record again, so I'm really looking forward to that
'cause I'm feeling like I miss that at the
moment."
And 5SOS won’t be short of tour experiences as
they prepare to head out on their own headline
arena tour in May next year...
Ashton said, “It's incredible to even have the
opportunity to create an amphitheater/arena
show. I'm really looking forward to that. I really
want people just to leave the show going, 'Wow, I
can't wait to see a 5 Seconds of Summer show
again.' I'd like to be known for our live shows, so
I really want to put on an experience for our
fans."
Hands up who can’t wait to see them live?!
