Torokio Hotel between one date and another of the tour with which the German band of “Monsoon”, as loved as hated, is celebrating in the clubs of the main European cities the twenty years spent from the release of the debut album. Yes, it’s incredible but true: The Tokyo Hotel are still around. And the most incredible thing is that still fill the clubsalmost as if the weather had never passed for the icon group of the 2000s.
Tonight the quartet led by Twins Bill and Tom Kaulitzwho at the time of “Monsoon” were 15 years old and today they have 35, he stops in Italy, for A single date hosted by the Alcatraz of Milan: the club will become a capsule of the time that will bring i 3 thousand spectators who pulverized the tickets available for the twenty -year -old appointment.
It was 2005 when the German branch of Universal sent in the “Schrei” stores, the band’s debut album discovered by the talent scout Peter Hoffmann, all sung in German: it was records the intuition of making Bill Kaulitz engraved and companions an English version of “Durch Den Monsun”, to allow the Tokio Hotel to try to conquer the international rankings, after the exploit in the exploit in the exploit. Germany, Poland, Austria and the Czech Republic. With that.Aesthetics between Emo and Darkin the name of studs, silver chains and checkered shirts, which characterized not only their look – all eyes were for the androgynous beauty and the not exactly low -produce hairstyles of Bill – but also their music, the Tokyo Hotel They perfectly embodied the Zeigeist of the pop-rock of those years, the last of the culture of video clips in high rotation on MTV. By the way: that of “Monsoon”, iconic, today on YouTube touches the beauty of 100 million views.
Beyond 10 million records sold in 68 countries, 190 between gold and platinum records won all over the world110 prizes conquered: perhaps at the time the weight of the Tokyo Hotel on pop culture was underestimated, and not a little, and not a little. “We don’t Search for Old Songs, We Search for Old Memories”, “We are not looking for old songs, we are looking for old memories»Someone wrote in a comment under the Hit video on YouTube. «And suddenly I come back fifteen. Heck, it seems that this song came out yesterday, but the truth is that they are a thirty year old. Time flies seriously, “commented another user. And again: «This era of the Tokyo Hotel was iconic. I was 14 years old. I can’t forget that period. Those feelings come back every time I listen to their music“,” It is as strange as you can remember, after years, the sensations you felt when you listened to the song for the first time.
It is as if it were a capsule of the invisible time of which only you have a key ». .For the record: the European tour is all sold out.
Perhaps it is precisely on comments of the genre that leverages the current success of the Tokyo Hotel: although it has not renounced, over the years, to be recording active (after the exploit of “Monson” have released four albums: “Humanoid” of 2009, “Kings of Suburbia” of 2014, “Dream Machine” of 2017 and “2001” of 2022, reinventing itself in electric sauce and Synth-pop), now Bill’s band and Tom Kaulitz has officially started monetalize nostalgia Remembering those years, Bill Kaulitz says: “There was a lot of pressure, I also believe from us.
We were thus involved to think: “Ok, there is no return from this”, as if it were our new life, our future, our path. It was what had to happen. .We were really hard with ourselves, as if we wanted to demonstrate all the time that we could have made another hit, another song, another big show, another album. You are competing with yourself all the time when you start with a first place album in the standings. Think: “It won’t go better than that, right?”. So if you have a record song and then nothing better, it’s a difficult point to start a career. I think you have to find a balance and a path that satisfies you, without pressing you ». Today they made peace with their past. And with yourself.
