The Backstreet Boys premiered a new song titled In a World Like This on Tuesday night on New York's radio station Z100.

The up-tempo love song features the lyrics, "In a world like this where some back down, I know we're going to make it. In a time like this when love comes around, I know we got to take it."

The song was produced by Max Martin who also worked on some the band's biggest hits including Quit Playing Games (With My Heart), Everybody (Backstreet's Back) and I Want It That Way.

The Backstreet Boys, who is celebrating a 20 year anniversary in the industry, will also release a new album In a World Like This on July 30.

"I hope [fans are] going to be pleasantly surprised with the sound that we've been able to keep there with our signature harmonies and melodies and great hooks, and once again modernize our sound over the years. It's just a bunch of great pop songs with a lot of great hooks," band member Howie Dorough had toldThe Huffington Post in April.

Dorough also revealed that the record will reunite all the members. Band member Kevin Richardson had quit the group in 2006.

"It was a very tough decision for me but one that was necessary in order to move on with the next chapter of my life," Richardson had said in a statement in 2006.

The album will be supported with a summer tour, which will kick off on Aug. 2 in Chicago and will end on Oct. 5 in Japan. Jersey Shore's DJ Pauly D and pop singer Jesse McCartney will also head out on the road with the band. See full dates here.

The band members, A.J. McLean, Howie Dorough, Nick Carter, Kevin Richardson and Brian Littrell, who formed the group in 1993, released their debut album Backstreet Boys in 1996 and it sold millions.

In a World Like This will be the follow-up the group's seventh studio album This Is Us released in 2009.
