One Direction vs The Wanted: Which Group Will Rule 2013?

The Wanted

1. Two New Albums

the-wanted We haven't heard much new music from The Wanted for a while now (the last single was released back in November), but 2013 promises not one, but two albums from the boys. They have stuck to their New Year Resolution to spend more time in the studio and regularly post snaps of them recording and writing on their official Twitter and Instagram. Speaking to Billboard Magazine, Tom Parker said: "I think we're going to do two albums, one in April and one towards the end of the year, because we've written quite a lot of songs this year." We love a bit of new music from our favourite artists - and with all the time they've spent working on it, we're sure it's going to be brilliant!

2. Wanted World

Last year, some subscribers were given the chance to go paintballing with the boys at a secret location! And this year, Wanted World promises to step up a gear with possible plans for it to start to roll out in other countries. Currently, all prizes are only available to be redeemed in the UK but by the end of 2013, it may have expanded to the United States as well as other countries around the world.
