iTunes Review
On their sophomore album Humanoid, Tokio Hotel offers glimpses of an apocalyptic future with a mixture of lust and loathing. The German teen combo continues to intermingle goth, glam and New Romantic motifs, both in their fashion sense and musical approach. Duran Duran and Depeche Mode’s ‘80s hits are frequent reference points here. Singer Bill Kaulitz preens and struts on top of industrial beats, achieving a playful sort of sulkiness on the trudging “Pain of Love” and the buoyant “Human Connect to Human.” Tokio Hotel don’t mind adding some froth to their gloomy brew, as the bouncy “Darkside of the Sun” and the tingling “Forever Now” show. Kaulitz and his band mates flirt with big themes (check out “Love & Death”), but mostly seem drawn to romantic revenge (“Automatic”) and brooding alienation (“Zoom Into Me).” Producer David Jost gives Tokio Hotel a high-gloss sonic environment to romp about in. Humanoid’s angst-ridden effervescence is relentlessly (maybe even inhumanly) catchy.
Customer Reviews
Such Improvement! :)
Finally, Tokio Hotel has released a second U.S. album, and it's completely worth the wait!
This famous German 'Pop' band has really put a lot of effort into this new album. Their first release in America, 2007's "Scream" showed how great of a band Tokio Hotel truely is. Their first hits "Monsoon", "Ready, Set, Go!" and "Don't Jump" were great songs instrumental wise, but the lyrics could have used a bit more improvement. Don't get me wrong, that album is great! I just think that they had more potential. Two years have passed, and my wish has finally come true.
In this album "Humanoid", Tokio Hotel had tried to create a new sound by adding electronic beats within their tracks. Hearing the first starter up single "Automatic" got me a bit worried. Auto-tune has been so over used lately, and hearing it out of this band wasn't something I was used to. Fortunately, as the song continued, I realized it's synthesized rhrythm was perfect for the song. It came together perfectly, and it got me eager for more of their newer material.
Hearing this highly anticipated album for the first time sent chills down my spine. The band has matured and improved their sound better than I could ever imagine. Not only instrumental and lyric wise, but Bill Kaulitz's voice is stronger and clearer than it ever has been before. Some tracks on this album may have produced his voice just a bit, but that's the art of this album. The robotic, rock style is what "Humanoid" is all about.
This album sets a new image for Tokio Hotel, and I am very pleased with it. Tokio Hotel may have changed, but they have incredibly matured from their past material. This album is going to ride off the charts, and I'm 100% satisfied.
Best of their albums yet?
I've been counting down the days for this day and I'm so thrilled!!!!Their music has advanced so much and I just LOVE their new sound and look! This album just might be their best one! The guitar,drums,bass and of course the VOICE is just brilliant! I couldn't be more thrilled with this album! woo!!!!! Tokio Hotel forever!<3333333
Playing Nonstop
My preorder starting downloading early (Oct. 5) and has been playing nonstop in my iPod ever since. It is so hooky and catchy. The iTunes bonus tracks in particular, and I say this as someone who also has the German disc. I'm so glad to hear them experimenting with new sounds, and as a child of the 80s, I welcome the reminders of Depeche Mode, New Order & Duran Duran. Anyone who wants the "old" Tokio Hotel, listen to World Behind My Wall or Zoom Into Me and tell me you can't hear that sound, too. Or get Phantom Rider off the deluxe disc. Personally, my favorites are Humanoid (for hard rock riffs and beautiful harmonies) and Pain of Love (for Bill's vocal command and recoginition that love isn't all unicorns and rainbows).
