The Germans are coming! Kraut-pop juggernaut Tokio Hotel have a new album, Humanoid, due October 6 — and as twins Bill and Tom Kaulitz themselves recently told EW, they never expected the level of success they’ve found internationally (“We came from a small village … It was a lot of happy and lucky moments for us, and we are totally happy that we got the chance to do all this.”)
Listen to an exclusive snippet of the song “NOISE,” from Humanoid, below. and see if makes you feel happy and lucky:
A little background on the track: Producer David Jost tells us: “Bill and Tom had the initial ideas for ‘NOISE.’ They roughly captured their ideas in their home studio in Germany and then sent them over to me and my partners in LA. A few days later Bill stood in front of the mic in our old recording studio in Hamburg. We could see him on a big screen in our LA studio, while we recorded him in real time.”
Adds Bill Kaulitz (pictured): “Two weeks later, Tom and I took a flight to LA, where we all finished the track together. When the song was done Tom was so pumped! Actually, the track almost became our first single.”
What do you think, readers — how does it compare to official first single “Automatic”?

I love it like Bill Loves Skittles.

Crunchy noisy skittles
hah didnt u hear they got sick of skittles haha im not even kidding
Oh and don’t we all love the way Bill loves skittles. lol
LOL, I love it like Bill loves Fred Meyer *or whatever the store was.* IE: Giddy excitement and euphoria.
It was actually a Meijer store… they’re a chain of grocery stores here in Michigan.
I adore this song! The melody is amazig and the lyrics are just crazy (in a good way). I hope this is the next single they put out.
I feel the exact same way! Melody and lyrics are the only things that matter to me in a song, and they got ‘em both in this song! Yay!
sound awesome can’t wait for the album
This song is going to be great live.
I agree (:
I also agree to this
OMG ! Cannot wait ! It will sound GREAT live ! xD Im excited ! =D
I totally agree guys this song will be amazing live. It’s reminds me a little of “Scream”
yes! this song also reminds me of when Bill says “I want to hear you make some noise” in concerts. This song would rock live!
definantly.
can friggin hardly wait!!!
This is amazing I can see why they almost chose this to be their new single
I love them both but I like Automatic a bit better. I love Tokio Hotel! They’re all awesome1
Yes, it makes me feel Very happy and lucky. The more I hear of this album the more I want it. I have to say that I like “Noise” more than “Automatic”, but that’s just one fan’s opinion.
I agree with you i think this might be better than “automatic” so now that’s 2 fans opinions (: . and I already wanted the album, but the more i hear of the music off of it I want it more an more.
3 words…..I LOVE IT!!

I cant wait to listen to the whole album. This song is great.
Very amazing!!! I quite enjoy it. I think I like it a bit more than Automatic, but I think Automatic’s a better as the first signal. Bill’s voice is soo beautiful.
I really really like it! It really makes me want to make some noise! *screams* Can’t wait for both versions of Humanoid! ^_^
