Backstreet Boys (BSB), the five-member band that catapulted to fame in 1996, are currently in the United Kingdom promoting their new movie, Backstreet Boys: Show 'Em What You're Made Of which hits selected cinemas today reports Daily Mail.

The movie documents their lucrative career spanning over 17 years, till the making of their last album, In A World Like This, which was released just two years.

Much to the delight of their loyal fanbase, the US band - featuring J. McLean, Howie Dorough, Nick Carter, Kevin Richardson and Brian Littrell - has announced that they will also be recording new music this year and have signed a deal with concert promoters Live Nation to perform 150 tour dates around the world in the next three years.

According to The Independant, Show 'Em What You're Made Of is also about their comedown from the top as it is about the success they enjoyed at their peak, such as when Kevin Richardson left the band for some time and the legal problems they had with their manager and founder, Lou Pearlman.

McLean says, "We've aired our dirty laundry over the past 22 years, from me going to rehab to Brian's surgery [Littrell had open-heart surgery in 1998], but there's a lot that our fans don't know. We wanted to give our fans another side of us they've never seen before."

BSB may have faded but they never fizzled out - they are determined to remain a band, to keep performing and recording.

"We don't have a record deal," Carter says, laughing to the camera early in the movie. "It's awesome. It's like starting all over again."

Backstreet's back for sure.
