5SOS share 5 fun facts as preparation ahead of GMA concert

Australian pop-punk band 5 Seconds Of Summer will play a concert for 'Good Morning America' on Friday and in preparation for the performance, they have shared five fun facts with GMA. 

The group's guitarist Michael Clifford kicked off the run down by joking about their diet: "We try to remain healthy... that's why we keep Doritos and popcorn with us wherever we go."

The other information revealed by the band include details about their "dressing room guitar", which is the instrument from their 'Amnesia' music video that lives in their backstage space at each show, and their penchant for playing ping pong when they're on tour. 5SOS also have a total of 15 guitars that they use during their live concerts and have played live for more than 1 million fans across four continents.

The 'She's Kinda Hot' hitmakers, meanwhile, opened up about their forthcoming new album and revealed that it deals with some mature and emotional themes: 

"'Sounds Good Feels Good' is not the same as the last album at all. It's very personal to us. The writing is a lot more emotional and explores different subjects that we haven't written about before. It really connects with us emotionally. We talk about childhood, we even touch on parents' divorce and stuff like that as well. We touch on love, heartbreak, loneliness, depression, anxiety -- all types of stuff."
