Hair Today\u2026 gone tomorrow. Back in about a month. The Hanson boys return\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 March 2000<\/p>\n

Even the name sends tingles down the backs of anyone that remembers their spectacular arrival on Planet Pop. It was almost three years ago to the day that Hanson came crashing into our lives in an explosion of hair, geetars and poptacular choons. MMMBop took the three bruvs straight to the top of the charts and straight on to the cover of Smash Hits. The boys stayed on Planet Pop for about a year and then\u2026nothing, bar the odd transatlantic phone call, for nearly two Hanson-less years.<\/p>\n

But in April, Zac (now an all grown-up 14), Taylor (16) and Isaac (19) return with a stomper of a single, If Only, so Smash Hits jumped on the first plane to LA to find out what they\u2019ve been doing all this time. \u201cWe did a US tour in \u201998, and played a few shows in Europe, including one at Wembley, but once we\u2019d finished the tour,\u201d explains Taylor. \u201cWe\u2019d been going for basically two years solid.\u201d Two years? Time for a break then. Or not. \u201cThen straight away we started working on music for the new record,\u201d Ike continues.<\/p>\n

The boys did manage to fit in a small holiday, as Zac tells us. \u201cWe chilled for a little bit, we went skiing with the family, but pretty much, we didn\u2019t stop.\u201d<\/p>\n

And the new record? Well, it\u2019s different. \u201cThe sound has got a bit more rock \u2018n\u2019 roll,\u201d admits Taylor, \u201cthis time around it had to be big, when that chorus comes in it\u2019s got to knock you over!\u201d<\/p>\n

And knock you over it does \u2013 the new album will have you headbangin\u2019 even if you\u2019re not a rocker.And the other difference\u2026\u201dNo!\u201d cries newly-shorn Isaac, shaking his head. \u201cNo, we didn\u2019t make a conscious decision to change our hair! It just sort of happened.\u201d Just sort of happened, eh? Well, Ike, you tell us who did it and we\u2019ll get \u2018em for you\u2026<\/p>\n
