Tom Kaulitz Biography Personal
Blogs are a spare reader’s post, you can start writing on the site and you Tom and Bill Kaulitz were born on September 1 in Leipzig, Tom 10 minutes older than Bill. When the brothers were seven years old, their parents Yorg Kaulitz and Simon Charlotte Kaulitz divorced, the family moved from Leipzig to Loite, a small village in the suburbs of the MAGD: RGA. Later, their mother met Gordon Trumpper, a local musician playing in the Future rock band.
It was he who brought the guitar to the house and taught how to play Tom on it. The brothers gathered their group in the year. Later, they were joined by the bassist Georg Listing and the drummer Gustav Shefer. At the time of education, its participants were from 12 to 14 years old. Initially, the group was called "Devilish". During the existence of Devilish, the guys managed to release the album of the same name with their own songs.
Unable to turn to large companies, the group copied the discs of its material and sold them at its concerts. Hoffman invited the group to his studio. There he presented the guys the future producer group with which they will work all subsequent years. He changed the name Devilish to Tokio Hotel. Studio albums: called “Devilish”, the group released the album of the same name, published in the year.
Platinum in Italy - “Best of” - “Kings of Suburbia” since the year the brothers have been living in Los Angeles, where they moved after an unpleasant incident: outsiders rumbled into their house and turned everything upside down in the house. Tom: It seems to me that everyone who has happened to experience this, whether this person is a public person or not is not important, all this is understandable, like God's day.
This is a disgusting sensation. The feeling is as if you were raped. After all, this is your personal life, and no one has a desire for the whole world to find out what lies in your bedside table or under the bed. Not that we had something strange things laughing there. Just, however, in such a situation you can feel like you were raped. When we returned home after what happened, we even stopped noticing that we were shaking off the ashes from the cigarettes right to the floor.
This place has ceased to be home for us. So, in general, we have no special attachment to Los Angeles, everything turned out very spontaneously. Bill actually really wants to move to New York, but I would not mind going to some unusual place, and this does not have to be a metropolis, it just should stand out with something. Perhaps I would have spent a year traveling on a motorcycle in India or, perhaps, went somewhere where the soul wished, taking only the essential things with her.
Bill: In Los Angeles, we rest from the hustle and bustle, live an ordinary life. I think we have this for the first time when we formed our personal circle of friends and live a calm ordinary life. But we also work here, create music.
In fact, Tom and I are always busy with music. Sometimes we write songs for other performers or come up with songs that we put aside and do not use for tokio hotel. We are always at work, we even made a ministudius at home. Otherwise, we just sit at home and rest. In the year, the TOKIO Hotel release the album “Kings of Suburbia” “Heaps of cigarettes, alcohol and nights went to this album,” Tom says, smiling.
I perceive myself, rather, as a multidisciplinary specialist and producer than as exclusively by the guitarist. To create an ideal album, we constantly stuck each other. Each sound in this album is what we really wanted. This time we wrote the majority of the material ourselves, ”Tom says. Bill: “With this album, everything is exactly as we imagined, and this is the first time we can tell everything honestly.
We did everything as we like. No one wrote to us songs that we must “sell”. This album is a percent of us. You can say that it’s damn cool! After that, we said: “So, this is the most important song and the reason to write an album.” After this song, we decided to write a new album. We were just having fun before her, but it was not so serious. But after it we knew: it was time to write an album.
Therefore, it seems to me that this song is the most important in the whole album. Tom: very, very difficult to say, because this time I worked on all songs. And I devoted a lot of time to each song, so much work has been invested in all this. We wrote this song in a couple of hours, then I outlined processing, and everyone liked it very much. So it took us only a day to finish the whole song, at least it seemed to us.
And in the beginning everyone liked this song. But when the final stage of processing came, it was most difficult to bring to the end, because a lot of changes were made to it. And as a producer, I am very proud of this song, because it contains a lot of details. There was a very special feeling and atmosphere. I have good memories of the time spent in the recording studio. I'm on drums.
And when you listen to her, you feel something special. Bill: The difference between Tom and me is that he is very patient, he is damn patient.He can sit in the studio and pour over the material and he knows how to play on all tools, and if he does not know how, he wants to. Yes, take the same cosmic drums to which he looked closely. He is: “God, how interesting it is! They were to me to one place, I hate to mess with such things, so I do not play on anything.
I sit down with a guitar, so what? If I can’t learn to play in five minutes, I will just leave everything. I want to say that Tom and I know exactly what else can. Tom can do as much that I can’t, and I don’t even try to delve into, because I know Tom will take everything to myself, he knows exactly what and how to do, where are the necessary sounds. I tell him everything that I want, and I know: he will find and do everything, and can understand what I need.
What other misconceptions did people have about Tokio Hotel? Bill: There are still people who think that we are an artificially created group or that someone has gathered us together, because “they are all so different,” as if we were a cool manager with some kind of television show. The group appeared for a very long time, and we united because of music. And the fact is that we are a group that began to play in our hometown, because we loved music.
And we write our music and play our music. We are all musicians. Unfortunately, sometimes they somehow forget about this. By the way, now the guys on Feel It All, as part of this round, the guys will give more concerts in Russia, Belarus and Ukraine. Traditionally, I complete the post of photos and gifs like.
