Although they had said they would begin recording this month, the Backstreet Boys announced Wednesday that are putting those plans on hold.

“As a group, we have decided not to record our next album at this time,” the group said in a statement. “We are not breaking up, but individually we are currently at different places in our lives, and our hearts and minds are focused in other areas. All of us are getting along great and are supporting each other in our individual endeavors.”

This has fueled a lot of speculation about the future for the group.

“When the timing is right, we will record another Backstreet Boys album,” the statement said. “We would like to thank our fans for their continued support and love throughout our career.”
