The Wanted Are Reuniting For Album And Concert

It's been a while since we blasted All Time Low out of our speakers - but now, boyband The Wanted are reuniting for a greatest hits album and a concert and we are buzzing about it.

Yep, Max George, Tom Parker, Nathan Sykes, Jay McGuiness and Siva Kaneswaran are finally getting back together.

Check out the announcement video below:

Announcing the news in a tweet, The Wanted wrote: "Here we go!! We are MEGA excited to announce that we are BACK and will be releasing our Greatest Hits Album on November 12th!! We'll also be performing LIVE at the @RoyalAlbertHall

as part of @TomParker's 'Inside My Head' concert. It's been far too long... Let's do this!"

And it's fair to say fans are ecstatic at the news, with 'The Wanted' immediately trending on Twitter and fans admitting to pre-ordering the album already.

"Omg my heart!! I met the wanted a few times growing up, travelled a lot to see them.. this is so lovely to see them reuniting after 7 years," one wrote. "Just preordered the album."

While another said: "The Wanted reunion > ABBA reunion."

And a third added: "Here's me getting use to adulting, having a mortgage, a dog, a full time job and then BAM. The Wanted announce they're back and I'm back to being 16 again!"

The 'Inside My Head' concert has been organised by Tom, 32, who last year revealed the sad news that he was battling terminal brain cancer, after he was diagnosed with stage 4 glioblastoma.

In a bid to fund vital research into new treatment for brain tumours in the UK, Tom has been both filming a documentary and organising the concert.

"I’ve got some truly amazing artists lined up to perform, it’s going to be a very special night. The concert is hosted by @Romankemp and @SonnyJay and all proceeds are going to Stand Up To Cancer @su2cuk and The National Brain appeal @brain_appeal to help fund vital research into new treatment for brain tumours in the U.K."
