5SOS become Target employees to celebrate debut album's U.S. release

Australian pop-punk band 5 Seconds Of Summer recently released their debut album exclusively through Target and the boys spent some time in one of the company's stores as temporary employees to help sell copies. 

Heartthrob Luke Hemmings took to his official Twitter page this morning (July 25) and told his followers that he and the lads recently donned Target's trademark uniform to help sell copies of their self-titled debut:

"Went into target the other day trying to sell people our album, cause everyone hates it haha."

Hemmings then added that the Target edition has several exclusive tracks on it: "There are four extra songs on the target version of our album :) 'Independence Day' is my fave."

A tweet was also shared from the band's collective social networking page and they uploaded a snapshot of themselves wearing the uniform (pictured above left), which they accompanied with the caption: "Finally got some real jobs."

The Target edition of the lads' debut record went on sale earlier this week, on July 22, and it features four bonus tracks. The additional songs are 'Independence Day', 'Tomorrow Never Dies', 'Close As Strangers', and 'Out Of My Limit'.
