Date: May 15, 2099 By OJ Lima Never has the saying, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it," been more true. The Backstreet Boys are back (awright!) with a new CD, Millennium, and they haven't changed much. Translation: If you like the old stuff, you're gonna dig this. But if you thought they were cheesier than a plate of nachos, Millenium probably isn't for you. The upbeat tracks, like "Don't Want You Back" and "Larger Than Life," are much hotter than the slow jams, since the Boys excel at shaking those rumps. There are a few exceptions, though. "I Want It That Way," is a cute little ditty about -- you guessed it -- love and all that mushy stuff. You've gotta give props to the Boys for sticking to their guns, knowing full well that everyone who's fed up with the recent onslaught of dreamboat boy bands is poised to get sick of BSB. But Nick, Brian, Kevin, Howie, and A.J. were there first, and they still stand apart from the crowd. That alone makes Millennium worth at least one listen while you're wandering around the record store. Even if you aren't a fan, they might surprise you.
