2001 (Tokio Hotel album)
2001 is the seventh studio album by German rock band Tokio Hotel. It was released on November 18, 2022 worldwide. The album's name, the cover and the tracklist were revealed through Youtube Premium live on July 19, 2022. 2001 is the band's first studio album in nearly five years, following Dream Machine (2017), marking the longest gap between two Tokio Hotel studio albums.

Background
The band’s last album, Dream Machine, is now around five years and a pandemic ago. Front singer Bill Kaulitz (32) recalls in a statement that the lockdown gave the band time to be creative with each other again. For the first time “in a long time, it felt a bit like it did back then, more than 20 years ago,” says Kaulitz about the recording sessions.

This also explains the title of the new long player: "2001" is a reference to the year in which the band met and founded for the first time. “On the one hand, the album goes back to the roots, but it also combines all the Tokio Hotel facets of the last two decades,” explains Kaulitz. Among other things, “When We Were Younger” and “Durch den Monsun 2020” are included in addition to 14 other songs.

Title and artwork
The album title, "2001", is a reference to the year the band first met.

Promotion
Prior to the album's annoucement, the band released the singles "Melancholic Paradise", "When It Rains It Pours" and "Chateau" in 2019, which despite not being included on the album served as promotional singles for a seventh album. A fourth single, "Berlin", along with the three aforementioned singles, was performed during Melancholic Paradise Tour 2019 prior to the song's release in 2020.
