BACKSTREET BOYS have said they have chart staying power.
The US pop group have sold over 100 millions albums in their 12-year career and said their success is down to producing contemporary-sounding records.
Speaking to Billboard, member Howie Dorough, said: "We always try to set the bar as high as possible.
"We've always been a pop R&B group. We focus our songs around good melodies and group harmonies, and hopefully that will have a lot of staying power."
And he added that the group are still confident that they can appeal to new audiences.
He said: "I think every artist who wants to be around for a long time and have staying power has to go through that transition.
"Some records are going to be bigger than others. You're always going to be compared to your biggest record. All you can do as an artist is just strive to make the best record you can and ride the rollercoaster as it goes up and down.
"I think, overall, we're gonna be a group that's here for a long time. As long as people want us and our fans want us, then hopefully we can ride the wave - like I say, the rollercoaster - up and down, and be standing at the very end."
Backstreet Boys release their new album This Is Us on October 5.
