Tokio Hotel talks about their new album!

Tokio Hotel Interview about the new Album "Humanoid"

Tokio Hotel Interview Part 1

After the unplugged appearance from Tokio Hotel in Köln, Bill, Tom, Gustav, and Georg patiently write autographs for 1,000(!) fans! I LOVE RADIO listener Alicia took the chance and photographed Bill from less than 1 meter. Thanks for your photo, Alicia!

Backstage Tokio Hotel took half an hour for an interview with I LOVE RADIO.

For the first time Tokio Hotel speaks about their new album "Humanoid" and revealed which other new album track other than "Automatisch"/"Automatic" will be released on September 18 on the first single.

Have fun with our exclusive backstage interview, part 1! I LOVE RADIO publishes all answers from Tokio Hotel as audio files - click here! {note: or in our case, click on the "source" at the bottom to go hear Bill ganz his way around}

"Humanoid" - what does that really mean?

Bill: Humanoid was a feeling of life that we always had. Even Tom and I had that from when we were little, that followed us and it has caught up with us again and again in the album production phase. Even in the songwriting it's always encountered us. It was obvious to call the album so.

Bill: "Automatisch" is about a girl that has no true feelings and she only pretends. We wanted to convey that with the cover, in which we have this robot arm - and the most human thing there is, namely the heart. I think that describes the whole song very well, and the feeling of the song.

Tom: The picture is just cool. At the first glance the cover may seem a bit gloomy, but I think if you examine it more closely and look at it a bit longer, it's not quite so gloomy. I think it is very atmospheric.

Will we still recognize you on the new album "Humanoid," or does your music sound quite different from before?

Bill: The track "Humanoid" actually describes it quite well, that it is a very different song, also from the song structure, in the structure of the song we really freed ourselves. I'm pretty excited what people say about it! It will also be on the single. Otherwise the last time and the last year of songwriting has naturally influenced us a lot. I don't want to give anything else away, but I think that you hear it in any case!

Tomorrow will be personal: in the second part of our interview Georg explains why he has just now said that he has had a girlfriend for a half a year. What happened in the last year that we know nothing about yet? Tomorrow you will know more: turn on I LOVE RADIO and check our news blog here on ILOVERADIO.de.
