This is probably one of the best days of the entire year for One Direction fans. Why you ask? Because the guys just announced that their fourth album, which is ironically title Four, will be available on November 17, according to Radio.comAlso, as a huge thank you to their adoring fans, One Direction will be giving away their new single Fireproof  but only for the next 24 hours on their official site. Once there you can also per-order a copy of the new album if you so desire.

One Direction was originally thought to be just another flash-in-the-pan boy band that would disappear as quickly as they were slapped together but that has quite obviously not proven to be the case at all. In fact, The Guinness Book of World Records recently named the band the 'first act to debut at No. 1 with first three albums' and obviously the guys are hoping that Four will mirror the success of their first three studio albums. Midnight Memories, Up All Night and Take Me Home have all helped to secure 1D a permanent spot in pop music history with a lot of help from tween' girls across the world.

Did you go to One Direction's official site and score yourself a free copy of Fireproof? What do you guys think of the song? Is it making you want to hear the rest of the album or are you indifferent at this point? The secret to keeping a boy band together is making sure that all of the members continue to grow and evolve together. Do you think that One Direction has managed to do that so far?
