Review
Like the Backstreet Boys before them, the teenage
male vocal group 'N Sync emerged from Orlando, Florida; though formed in
1996, their roots trace back much earlier to singers JC Chasez and Justin
Timberlake, who together previously co-starred on the Disney Channel's
The Mickey Mouse Club before later relocating to Nashville, where they
worked on solo projects with the same vocal coach and songwriters. Timberlake
soon returned to Orlando, where he befriended Chris Kirkpatrick and Joey
Fatone; with Chasez, the four agreed to form a band, and with the addition
of bass James Lance Bass, 'N Sync was complete. Hooking up with a series
of producers including Denniz Pop, the group recorded their self-titled
debut LP, initially released on BMG Ariola Munich; 'N Sync soon became
an overnight success throughout much of Europe, with the singles "I Want
You Back" and "Tearing Up My Heart" both becoming major hits. The album
was released in the U.S. in the spring of 1998, and accompanied by a tour
of the nation's roller rinks it became an American hit as well; Home for
Christmas followed later that same year.
