Tokio Hotel

Anticipated Release Date: April 15.
Why We're Stoked: You may not have heard of Tokio Hotel, but they're really big in Europe…seriously! Considered the biggest German band of the decade, Tokio Hotel has sold more than three million albums and DVDs and has had four number one singles. They even beat out Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, Depeche Mode, and 30 Seconds To Mars to win the 2007 MTV European Award for "InterAct" for the band with the biggest Internet buzz. Now, TH is crossing the Atlantic, and they're sure to make a splash. Their two-song EP Scream America (which includes a remix by AFI's Jade Puget) hit stores on December 11 in anticipation of the release of the special US version of this hit album Scream. (Don't worry -- the words are in English!) To top it all off, they're all under 20 years old, and they started recording music when two members were still 13. Impressed? We so are!
