British-Irish boy band One Direction took the music industry by storm earlier this year when its debut album topped the U.S. Billboard chart, and now the group is planning a second wave of success with a new record due in November.

The cheeky quintet, who rose to fame in 2010 on U.K. television talent show The X Factor, will release their sophomore album Take Me Home on Nov. 13, Columbia Records said.

Take Me Home will feature tracks co-written by the One Direction boys along with British artists such as Ed Sheeran and McFly's Tom Fletcher.

The album's lead single, Live While We're Young, will première on radio on Sept. 24, and be available digitally from Oct. 1.

One Direction, made up of Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles and Liam Payne, surged onto the U.S. airwaves earlier this year with catchy pop hit What Makes You Beautiful, gaining a strong following among teenage girls known as Directioners.
