During an interview with MTV News, One Direction member Liam Payne revealed a few details about the British-Irish boy band’s upcoming album.
Set to be released around November, the follow up album to the platinum selling album, Take Me Home, Payne told fans to look out for a much edgier sound on their third album.
“[It’s a] very rock direction,” Payne said. “We actually spent a lot of time writing this album. We’re very proud of it, so we can’t wait for it to come out.
“It’s very live sounding, very rock-y,” he continued, before also describing it as “quite retro.” “But it’s very different so we are hoping people will kind of adjust to the music with us.”
Reportedly, the band is working with the same production team behind their 2011 debut album, Up All Night and Take Me Home.
“[We] had the chance to work with a lot of great writers and stuff, but we just made it a bit more edgier,” Liam Payne explained at a press conference back in May. “Just subtle changes here and there so it kind of grows as we grow.”
One Direction recently took home an MTV VMA Moon Man for their single Best Song Ever.
