'MMMBop' trio Hanson have opened up about their forthcoming new album 'Anthem', which will be their sixth full-length offering.

The brothers are due to release the cut on June 18 and explained to Billboard.com that when writing the songs, they thought about how their fans will react to them when they hear them performed live:

"It's got a lot of big sounding songs. We really thought of the audience when we did them – we imagined the interaction with the crowd."

The oldest member, Isaac, added that the styles of music that feature on the record are diverse: "We also had some friends doing strings. The album is hopefully anthemic."

Hanson released the album's lead single, 'Get The Girl Back', on April 9 and the music video has now been released.
