Finally! The 5SOS Amnesia EP is in our possession and on repeat for the rest of the week. But you know what? I need more.
Yes, I know it hasn’t even been 2 months since their debut album dropped, but if you are constantly monitoring their Instagram feed, like me, then you know that they have been in the studio recording some “NEW NEW stuff.” So, what’s the status?
We caught up with Michael, Calum, Luke and Ashton at the iHeart Radio Music Festival and they told us there have been attempts at writing some new material while they are out on the road supporting One Direction on their Where We Are Tour.
“We’ve been trying to, ‘trying’ is the key word,” Ashton said about writing new music. “We’ve been trying to fit it in. We’ve been so busy lately, but we are definitely feeling creative again and excited to write a second album.”
The guys, who are gearing up for their fan convention Derp Con in November, unfortunately won’t be releasing new music this year, but look for it in 2015, or in the year 2020, as Luke joked. “Our comeback album,” Ashton added.
But, here’s some good news for the 5SOS fam: Michael did say to be ready because they’ve got “some little stuff” popping up at the end of the year. Plus, they have plans to release another single off their self-titled album.
“We don’t know whether we are supposed to be keeping secrets or not,” Ashton said about what song will be the next single. “We want to have some surprises up our sleeves.”
