K-pop boy band Big Bang will release their third full-length album for the first time in eight years next week.

The album will contain previously released hit singles such as "Bang Bang Bang," "Loser," "If You" and "We Like 2 Party," as well as new songs.

As T.O.P, the band's leader and rapper, will start his military service in February next year, their new album is receiving more attention from local and foreign fans than ever before.

The group will stage concerts at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on Jan. 7 and 8 next year.
