Reminder: There will be a chat and listening session today!






From the e-mail:

Soundrop: TH Chat & Album Listening Session

Come and meet Tokio Hotel online tonight at 8pm CET during their exclusive
Soundrop event on Spotify. This is how it works:

1. Visit http://open.soundrop.fm/s/tokiohotel
2. Click "Open in Spotify" and join the album listening session
3. In the Tokio Hotel Soundrop room you can vote songs up in the playlist on the left
and you can also chat in the chat room on the right
5. Sign in with Facebook or Twitter to vote and chat
...Bill, Tom, Gustav & Georg will join tonight at 8pm CET. See you then!

(idk what happened to #4 ;P)

Anyway, it says "you can vote songs up in the playlist" and as most of you will probably have heard the album by now in some form or other, I thought we could do a quick poll!!

Pick one - it'll be interesting to do another poll in a few weeks when it's all sunk in a bit more - and a let us know your thoughts. likes, dislikes, similarities, influences, links to other interesting (good or bad) reviews, grammar corrections, etc

And does anyone have any lyric links, scans? - can't deal with reaming Bill's swollen ass :P (add your other misheard lyrics lol)

[Poll #1984562][Poll #1984562]

ETA: It's hard, right?! Easier to list the ones I don't like so much then work backwards or best to worst idk idk lol

Bill: "Everyone who has a good taste in music will love the album."
They'll present 3 new songs now.
A guy just asked how the Gs feel because only the twins have been talking until now.
Someone called Georg “Gerhart”!
Playing some kind of film:
"Was it ever an option for you to go to LA?" (to Georg & Gustav) - "No."

An uncounted number of fans woke up this morning to find that their order of the KoS Limited Super Deluxe was canceled. Amazon.fr apparently took more orders than they could fulfill and sent emails this morning to some fans telling them their order was canceled.

Here's the email I received, google translated:


Hello,

We will contact you regarding your recent pre 404-7773033-1797908 containing the article:

Kings of Suburbia - Super Deluxe Box (CD, DVD, Vinyl 2, Photo Album)
Asin: B00N50VY84

We regret to inform you that we have canceled this item from your order due to stock shortages. This article is part of a limited edition, we will not be able to deliver it.

We do not charge items until they are sent. So you have not been charged for this item and it is listed in the "Orders canceled" Your Account.

Also, please note that the Deluxe edition is available. You can pre-order from the following page:

http://www.amazon.fr/Kings-Suburbia-Coffret-Deluxe-DVD/dp/B00N50VYGG

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by this cancellation and thank you for your understanding.

Kind regards,

Customer Service Amazon.fr
http://www.amazon.fr

How polite of them to remind us that the Deluxe is still available! Anyone else have their order canceled?

There are two known links where you may be able to still order:
UK import (£75) or MediaMarkt (€50)

No clue if the UK import is from MediaMarkt but if not it might be out of stock as well. MM also ony ships domestically so essentially...non-German fans are SOL (unless they wanna pay the import price).

If you have any more info please let me know in the comments and I'll add to the post.

ETA: This site may work! At the end it cost me $70 USD. Out of stock already!

Here's a link!

Enjoy! I will be over there with earmuffs because I'm waiting for the full album. U______u

In it the boys talk more in depth about their decision to take a break and their involvment on the album. It's a really, really good read, but unfortunately the translator only uploaded it as an image file, so I've embedded it beneath the cut.

Quoth JoJo Wright, who interviewed our boys back in 2008 when they were just wee lads, and finally had the chance to interview them again! Check out the first clip below:



Please visit JoJo's web page and drop a comment or two so he knows we're watching!

I'm assuming JoJo will be dragging these out painfully and torturously but I'm still super pumped about how excited all five of them are to be reunited. It'll be a good interview.

NSFW? )

As found on amazon.fr and .es! This is our official single guys. As I said on Twitter, if it's not full of internet/computer puns and innuendos I will be sorely disappointed.


it's a vagina


What's crazy is if you reverse image search the artwork you will find that it dates back at least 5 years, yet I cannot find a source for the life of me! Who created this mystery artwork? I hope fandom's infamous sleuthing figures it out because I'm super curious.

let's talk more about Run, Run, Run )

Bill posted a ~cryptic selfie~ on Instagram with just the words, What's missing?



his septum piercing is gone :)

Additionally, as some fans had suspected, it seems like we will be getting a new song + music video every Friday until the release! Can you handle it? I definitely can't.

Here's TH's tweet on the matter:

(The music video connection comes from fans seeing this on the website before it was pulled, and the fact that Run, Run, Run is being released with a music video.)

Make sure you pre-order on iTunes! Unless you live in North America or prefer CD quality or whatever.

The boys are going to try to print more copies so no one misses out!




Still no news for North American fans. ;c But something is happening next week...


I wonder how many Super Deluxe albums they originally printed. Obviously they were underestimating us!
[identity profile] toastieghostie.livejournal.com
At least that's how I felt after watching it. This episode features a lot of technical music mumbo jumbo, twins, and new tracks. It's all very beautiful and maddening.



Favorite song clip? I still love the 'Tom, ich kanns nicht' part but just cause it's so cute, haha. I liked all the music in the ep and I'm reeeeeally super hyped for this album now, more than ever before.

Tokio Hotel announce their new album, Kings of Suburbia.



Bill Kaulitz himself explained the title of the new album as: “Kings of Suburbia is the feeling that means everything and at the same time nothing at all.” It is a unique, in the moment soundtrack, in which you can find the peak of your own universe, no matter how small or enormous the journey may be. (Did my best but this sentence is nuts.)

In year 2005 Tokio Hotel delivered their successful debut.

With their debut album Schrei in 2005, Tokio Hotel became the most successful German rock band in 20 years. Their releases have sold more than seven million copies worldwide, and with about 160 gold and 63 platinum in 68 countries and more than 100 national and international awards, Tokio Hotel are an international phenomenon. Never before has a German band received an MTV Video Music Award. Tokio Hotel won Best New Artist, the Japanese MTV Music Award for Best Rock Video, and five European Music Awards.

California became a valuable haven.

The magnitude of their fame was nearly tangible. And so it was that the twins Bill and Tom Kaulitz, at the apex (hehe) of their career, flew to California overnight. They fled from a steadily increasing turmoil, and came into the anonymity of Los Angeles to peacefulness. A move that should pay off. They could appeal to new impulses and inspirations and mold out of this renewed creativity a new studio album.

The new Tokio Hotel album “Kings of Suburbia” looks like this:


We expect 11 new, huge sounding tracks

Kings of Suburbia is now the fourth international studio album from Tokio Hotel. It shows how the past flows into the present, space is created for new impressions and ideas, and eventually everything points towards the future. Eleven huge-sounding tracks await us, which illustrate the musical process and development of the band impressively. Every piece of distinctive energy, heartfelt songwriting, and the tight collaboration between twins Bill and Tom makes this album another milestone in their career.

KoS comes out on the 3rd of October 2014.

On 3 October 2014, Kings of Suburbia will behold the light of the world here. It will be available for preorder on Amazon and iTunes on 5 September. We should be excited and looking forward to the fresh musical wind that will soon deliver us Tokio Hotel (lol).

Can anyone confirm if Oct 3. is an American or German release date? I seem to recall they release music on different days of the week. Also I think we should expect single news soon, like within 24 hours.
