Tokio Hotel synopsis
Humanoid is packed with much of the same emotion that has connected with multitudes of young fans. And in this age of Rock Band and Guitar Hero, the record is full of opportunities for audience participation.
The first single, "Automatic" is a metallic anthem with layered, buzzing guitars, stomping percussion, and a falsetto chorus made to be belted out by a stadium full of people. "World Behind My Wall" redefines the power ballad with depth, introspection, musical confidence and an irresistible sing-along chorus.
While recording this time around, though, the band was in its most experimental phase to date. They tracked songs in Hamburg, Miami, and L.A. "Bill drove us all crazy, constantly coming in with things, even though the old songs weren’t finished yet," says Tom, who's fond of frequently ribbing his brother. "Apart from that, we just didn’t limit ourselves, and we used new instruments."
There are more electronic sounds on Humanoid. The first single "Automatic" explores the relationships between every day emotions and every day conveniences.
"How many things happen automatically every day?" Bill asks. "The door opens and closes automatically, shifting gears in a car; a camera lens -- all of those are always positive things, but when the mechanical quality of the automatic meets human things like love, then suddenly it becomes extremely negative. Love has to be spontaneous and genuine, never automatic and cold.” That's the theme that moves people.
Along with the new sounds, new subjects, new live show, and even Bill's new style, longtime fans will still find the constant connection to Tokio Hotel's raw honesty and emotion.
"We love our fans because they are the loudest of all and do such crazy things," Bill says. "They always support us, no matter what has happened, and a lot has happened."

Article : Making some noise
Rockers Tokio Hotel happy to pump up the volume
The last time German rockers Tokio Hotel were in town, they played an acoustic showcase - a far cry from Humanoid City, the ballsy show they've been touring recently. This time round, when Tokio Hotel return to our shores for Singfest, they promise to rock out - albeit on a smaller scale than Humanoid City.
"We will have a full electric show, but we won't be able to bring the whole set for Humanoid City," said Tokio Hotel singer Bill Kaulitz over the phone. "But it's going to be a great show anyway."
What do you expect this time?
We expect great weather. And great audiences. Well, you know, we'd rather see the fans one-to-one than just read about them or hear about them on the Internet. This time we can see them face-to-face and see their reactions and emotions. That's always a great thing. So we're excited.
Did you see much of Singapore and try the local food last time?
The schedule was really, really tough the last time, so we didn't see the whole city and all our fans, but it was fantastic. We just ate pasta, pizza and things like that. Maybe we'll get to try some this time.
Brothers in a band aren't always a good idea. Look at Oasis. How well do you get along with Tom?
I think because we're identical twins, it's a little different. There's a connection there, it's something special. We're like one person - can't live without each other. I mean, we have fights sometimes, but five minutes later, we'll forget about it. Tommy and me, we've done everything together our whole lives. It's an enormous thing for us to be in the same band and doing all this together.
You guys were teens when you started. Any advice for young bands?
It's hard in the beginning, especially if you are very young, with people talking sh** about you. But when you're doing good music at 15 ... that's a good thing. To be successful, though, it's a lot of luck - you have to be at the right place at the right time. And a lot of hard work. We made the decision and we just wanted to go for it and do music our whole lives. We didn't care what happened. It's important to keep that goal in mind to go professional.
So you didn't think to do anything else after school?
Tom and me, we started to make music when we were seven. After school, we went directly into the rehearsal room. There was never a Plan B. If we weren't picked up by the label, I think we could have been homeless musicians, maybe. We would play anywhere - in front of five or in front of thousands. But it's better to play in front of thousands! We are really lucky to have this life. I feel really blessed.
Tokio Hotel perform at Singfest on Aug 3. Tickets at $175 from Sistic. Packages available. Details at www.sistic.com.sg.

Scans : Twist nº 06/10 (Germany)
Singer Bill Kaulitz of Tokio Hotel with its beautiful dish fully charged. It was about time he got something in the ribs (refers to weight gain.) Only after 20 years will probably need to have food needs practice. Small tip: To chew first, and then swallow. And always eat with your mouth closed.
The star of Tokio Hotel (20) with a tissue to Palestine? In Paris, the singer looks like a "schrägem" masked reevaluation. Maybe you just forgot to put on makeup?
Masking: With mask and gloves the singer did not look very good.

7. Tokio Hotel
When I wrote my end of year with the Top 10 Worst Music Videos of 2008, I, of course, throw a video of Tokio Hotel at # 4. After the list, got an endless stream of comments and personal messages from fans of 12 years old, telling me how stupid I am for them in the list. What kind of Kool-Aid are these emos my *** gives to feed these girls?
First, their music is just awful. All his songs are gentle melodies pop / rock with the worst lyrics I've heard in my life. They are like a gothic boy band who grew up with David Hasselhoff and Bauhaus. I just hope these kids understand that within two years will spend weeks trying to figure out why even bought music from this band at first. I guarantee that Tokio Hotel will be an episode of "Where are they now" in the very near future. Guaranteed!
note : he's dumm! obviously he's not a fan of Tokio Hotel

BILL KAULITZ
Vocal group "Tokio Hotel" and twin brother of guitarist, Tom Kaulitz was born on 1 September in Leipzig, Germany. It is 10 minutes younger than his brother Tom, despite being twins their appearances are different because of its striking fashion styles: Bill has a rocker style and Tom a hip-hop.
At 5 years, both brothers were part of a film in Germany and only seven years later became percings in the eyebrow and tongue. All this with the consent of their parents, Simone and Jorg Kaulitz, who separated when their children were just a few infants.
At age 12, Bill got a tattoo on the underside of his neck with the logo of Tokio Hotel, l which if I keep it secret, despite having parents with completely open mind and liberal. Thus the conclusion of his eighteenth birthday is an another tattoo with the word "Freihet 89" on the left forearm.
Achievements:
Bill was part of a contest for children German "Kinder-Star-Search", which features children imitate their favorite singers, so as singing "It's Raining Men", the group was discovered in 2003 by the producer Petter Hoffmann.
In 2008 with his tour "1000 Hotel" Bill had surgery for a cyst in the larynx, fortunately the operation was a success and only did a month of rest. In 2009 he changed his "hair" for a black and white dreadlocks, dreadlocks now changed by a ridge punk rocker. Crashing a character has been dedicated to being our star teen, who no doubt will continue harvesting more successes which have already been achieved.
