*NSYNC's Selt-Titled Debut at 25 (Silver Liner Notes)

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Mar 28, 2023

*NSYNC released their debut, self-titled album internationally on March 24, 1998. The album introduced the world to one of the soon-to-be-best-selling boybands of all time, spawned hits like "Tearin' Up My Heart" and "I Want You Back," and set the stage for Justin Timberlake's eventual success as a solo artist. We revisit the album on its 25th anniversary as part of our series Silver Liner Notes, with Maria Sherman, author of Larger Than Life: A History of Boy Bands from NKOTB to BTS.
