BREAKING: McFly To Release First Music In 10 Years

Like 2020 couldn't get any crazier, McFly have signed their first record deal in 10 years and are set to release music later this year.

*SCREEEEAMS.*

Yes, the pop group - who enjoyed hits such as 'All About You' and 'Five Colours In Her Hair' - are set to release an entire album.

While we don't know the name of the comeback record yet, it's new that's sure to send screams of joy through diehard fans.

The album's debut single - set to land later this month - is described as an "intoxicatingly upbeat crowd-pleaser" by the BBC.

Band guitarist Danny Jones told the outlet: "You can put it on and your kids will dance to it, your wife will dance to it, your granddad, everybody. Even the lads can get involved, the football crowd. I could really hear it on the Fifa soundtrack."

The "carnivalesque" song is apparently inspired by the band's massive South American following and even includes a samba sample.

The band - which formed in 2003 - is made up of Tom Fletcher, Danny Jones, Dougie Pointer and Harry Judd who have all been working on the new album.

Danny added of the process of making the album: "It's the first time I feel like we've all been part of it. We were all involved, split down the middle, and it was just such a collaborative, energetic process."

The announcement may come as a surprise for fans who last heard the members were taking a hiatus to focus on solo projects.

In 2013, the band plans for a new album on hold and instead joined forces with Busted to create supergroup McBusted. The group played a 34-date tour playing both McFly and Busted songs.

In April 2016, the band went on their The Anthology where they played songs from all five of their previous albums in Glasgow, Birmingham, Manchester and London.

In March 2018, the band announced on Twitter they would be focusing on solo projects but were looking forward to making music in the future.

We guess they just realised they were stronger together, and we're sooo glad about it!

Anyone else SO buzzing for this?
