Backstreet Boys Wage War with New Single

The boys release their new single, “Straight Through My Heart (Soldier Down).”

The powerful vocal group made up of Nick Carter, Brian Littrell, Howie Dorough and AJ McLean is ready to take over the airwaves again. The Backstreet Boys released their new single, "Straight Through My Heart (Soldier Down)," this week, via a live stream on their Web site. The track will be released to radio stations across the country July 27.

Unlike the first singles off of the boys past two albums, this single is not a power ballad, but rather a track laced with a stinging uptempo beat. "Straight Through My Heart" was produced by hit maker RedOne, who has also produced tracks for Lady GaGa.

The track is rather intense in the lyrics - mentioning bullets, bleeding, and being shot through the heart - all for love, of course.

The Backstreet Boys are back, but they never really went anywhere. While some inaccurately label this as a "comeback," it certainly is not. The boys were out of the scene for about four years, but then regrouped in 2005 with the much anticipated, "Never Gone" record. The guys followed up that album with "Unbreakable" in 2007.

"Straight Through My Heart" is the first single off of their seventh studio album, "This Is Us," due in stores October 6.
