The members of New Kids on the Block may be on the other side of 50 and looking more like dads, but they’re telling their fans they’re “Still Kids.”

The ‘90s boy band announced that they are releasing their first album in 11 years.

Billboard reported that the first single, “Kids” was already previewed, and is available on Apple Music. It will be joined by 13 other tracks when the album is released on May 17. It can be preordered now.

The “Kids” video is available on YouTube and will be performed when they take over “The Kelly Clarkson Show” on Friday, Us Weekly reported.

“Still Kids” follows NKOTB’s 2013 studio album “10″ and will be “full of pop anthems, dance tracks, love songs and grooves that will become fast favorites for the Blockheads.”

Despite the name, Donnie Wahlberg said that it is, “It’s the most mature album we’ve ever made,” adding, “Yet it’s the most fun and most comfortable album we’ve ever made… This album, more than any other, is bringing the New Kids and the fans full circle. It’s about hope and possibilities and being ourselves.”

“Donnie and I pretty much co-wrote the whole album,” Joey McIntyre told Us Weekly.

He said the song is a good overview of the band’s nearly 40-year-career, calling it a new anthem for the group.

“It kind of says it all,” he said. “We’ve been lucky, the five of us, to never grow up in some ways. And a lot of people look to us to go back to that happy place, and we give permission to them to just have fun. We’re that getaway and we’re going to beat that drum forever and ever. And I think this song [”Kids”] is a new anthem for us.”

The album and subsequent tour feature DJ Jazzy Jeff and Taylor Dane. They will also be joined by Paula Abdul on the road.

Here’s the track list for “Still Kids”:

1. “Magic”
2. “Summer Love”
3. “Long Time Coming”
4. “Kids”
5. “A Love Like This”
6. “Dance With You”
