yeah, it would've been nice if the other 3 were in it too, but they're changing and trying new stuff, which could also include the album cover. and either, it looks good.

Not trying to sound whiney about it or anything but this is my opinion I HATE IT :angry: to be honest when they said they were going to change i really didn't believe them they always said that and never changed until now at first i hated their new looks but liked their new sound thankfully now i'm in love with both! But this album cover well 1. i've seen tons of fan art that's way better it looks cheaply made and could easily be done with an hour of photoshopping 2. As everyone else said why just bill he may be the front man but funnily enough the band is called tokio hotel not tokio bill or bill hotel if everythings focusing on bill now then maybe they should try putting him on the stage on his own he depends on tom if you watch on THTV or interviews he says something and then looks at him like right tom? Again my opinion don't shout at me  - kezzykaulitz -x- Kira -x- |

Wow calm down, they changed there look they havnt changed personality wise or anything.
EDIT: Im not trying to sound like a bitch or anything but its all well us moaning about it but it wasn't our choice who was on the cover and they agree'd about it so its clear none of them were upset about the choices and plus new listeners might not even know its Bill, i know i didn't recognize it at first and I wake up to a Bill filled room every morning.

I don't get why people are getting annoyed at it only being "just Bill". Not being funny, but it's getting quite annoying.
Bill is the "frontman" of the band, and therefore is the face (no pun intended...) of Tokio Hotel. If you're only slightly aquainted with the band and they're mentioned, Bill is ~generally~ the one that comes to mind first.
And come on, if they were to put Gustav's face on there instead, people would ALSO be all "WTF"? No offence, Gustav, darling.
Doesn't mean it's fair, but it's just how it is.  Because Bill is the front man and is the person people most think about doesnt mean he should be the only person portayed, hence why people are a bit like whhhattt. Yes every band evvvery band has a front man, but do not tend to only show his/her there face on the cover, its usually all of the band, if there is a main man he is centerd or slightly bigger if that. Think McFly, Oasis, you know. Not that im saying its bad that Bills on the front cover alone, but yes I do think its a bit weird and unusual, I like it though. I can understand why other people think the same. Can't you see how other people can see that aswell  Edit oww one of Oasis albums did have only the lead man on the cover:) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Familiar_To_Millions.jpgsooo its not thaaat unusual |

Tbh, Tom removed his post of the album cover because of EXTREME moaning from fans. that puts a bad light on us.
tbh you cant say schrei, schrei: so laut du kannst zimmer 483 and scream had the most DAZZLING FRICKING AMAZING album art in the world. why are we just complaining about humanoid?

That's so sad He really took it down because of bad reactions? Man that's horrible I know it really is, it must of upset them. He removed it within a hour or so, and here we are all commenting negetively with whos on the cover and not lets leave it at, they decided it was Bill its not like anyone had a fight over it. |

I think on the whole this forum wasn't so negative about it, most of us so far seem to like it  but I did see alot of negative comments on twitter... removing it an hour or so after though... it's scary how fast the net can spread things, huh?  |

I was thinking the same, Nash. Maybe the possibility of interchangable covers (depending on what CD case you would have). Of course that doesn't seem likely anymore with all those freaking different CD editions. *lol* Anyway, there might still be pics like that of the others inside.
I kind of like the cover and kind of don't. I haven't seen any of the nasty comments but I can vividly imagine them (and I don't think there was that much moaning going on here *haha*). My first reaction was definitely "wtf?". ;D
I love the Schrei/Schrei so laut du kannst artwork. I wasn't keen on the whole mud thing going on for Zimmer 483 though I liked the idea with the cover artwork and I did not like the Scream cover. Never did.
This one gets the feeling accross and I think it fits rather well with the album atmosphere. I didn't expect to see only one of the guys on the cover though and I don't care if it's Bill or any of the others. I just didn't see it coming. I was more expecting to not have any of them on the cover tbh. It still feels weird to me. I know it's not unusual and I don't think the others really mind or are uncomfortable with it. That's not the point for me. I know Bill often gets referred to as the front man of the band etc but I just never take it in and I don't seperate them. That's all. So yes, I like it but it feels weird to me which I guess is a good thing. After all it's Humanoid, right? ;D

Okay I wasn't actually going to post on here because of how heated things
were becoming but I want to say what I think of this album cover.
I actually despise it which is unsual because I don't usually hate any of their work including
the scream album art work (which was pretty bad) however this one not only does it look
very cheaply done it is very boring, it is also to plain for my liking. I do like the colour scheme
because it fits in with the whole feel for the album and I do like the humanoid on the front.
Something I don't agree with is the fact that it is only Bill. (That sounds so weird saying.) Now
I have nothing against Bill in fact if it is only going to be one member of the band personally
I am glad that it is Bill, however I do not agree with the fact that it is only one member I believe
it should be either all of the band or none of the band but that is just my personal opinion.
I mean I know that all bands have albums that have booklets where on one page only one
member will be photoed then on another it would be another band member but that is on the
inside of the booklet not on the actual cover.
