They formed in 2009 and were signed worldwide to Universal Music subsidiaries Island Records and Mercury Records, and managed by Scooter Braun.The band's debut album, The Wanted, was released on 25 October 2010 and peaked at number four on the UK Albums Chart. The album spawned three UK top 20 singles: their debut single %22All Time Low%22, which debuted at number one, %22Heart Vacancy%22, which reached number two, and %22Lose My Mind%22, which peaked at number 19. Follow-up album Battleground saw release on 4 November 2011 and hit number five in the UK and number four in Ireland. The lead single from the album, %22Gold Forever%22, was released in aid of Comic Relief and reached number three in the UK. Their second number-one hit, %22Glad You Came%22, topped the singles chart in the United Kingdom for two weeks, and in Ireland for five weeks. The third and fourth singles %22Lightning%22 and %22Warzone%22 hit number two and number 21, respectively, in the UK.In early 2012, The Wanted began to see success in the United States and Canada, with their hit single %22Glad You Came%22 selling 3 million copies in the US and hitting number three on the Billboard Hot 100 and number two on the Canadian Hot 100. Additionally, their follow-up singles %22Chasing the Sun%22 and %22I Found You%22 reached the top spot on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs chart. In 2013, it was announced that the group would be starring in their very own reality series on E! entitled The Wanted Life. The series would document the group's stay in Los Angeles while they recorded their third worldwide album and prepare for a world tour, as well as their day-to-day antics. The show promised an honest glimpse into the lives of the band members.
