My prediction of the tracklist:

12 You Mad Ferris? (Remake of 1st Chapter Song)

hahahahaha. excellent.

Laughed at that title too, haha!


As kelvo mentioned, the album will have various styles. And probably one track with German vocals -- and I think it's possible that that track could once more be in some different style than the ones already mentioned. But judging by everything, the album will be carefully made, even if it were experimental; they've worked on the new Scooter sound for a year or more by now, and the work isn't over yet. I keep imagining some huge instrumentals this time, but it might be just my imagination...

Edit: Oh, and if it were released on the last Friday of August (26th), it would be 82 days till the new album! In case it's released earlier, say, the first Friday of August (5th), we'd have 61 days to wait! In any case it won't be that long anymore!

And even sooner we might hear a track or 2 of the new album on the Inferno, and that's 3 weeks away only

Indeed! I think we'll hear a new song there, perhaps the next single that'll be out before the album. Can't wait -- but three weeks will go fast.

The guys promissed a few previews, I remember reading 3. One of them will for sure be TOO, so there might be 2 unknown new ones I hope

yeah new tracks will be played at the inferno

and to me the new album is gonna be an experiemt album, but it also seems they are fusing the style with the new house sound they are using

BTW loving the WT remix,
intrumentals like this on the new album are welcome

I don't mind something more like P.U.C.K.

me too, nice track

im really looking forward to this album

and i hope if a dvd of the inferno isnt released, then it comes with the album and a live cd too

I was just randomly wondering, will they have much if any time to work on the album until Inferno is over? As they mentioned in Facebook they're busily preparing for the concert (well that's good of course!), it could get pretty time-consuming if they've left several things to the last minute. As is possible since they just decided on the setlist a few days ago. And that probably and hopefully means updating older work and stuff like that...

in September they were preparing the stuff the turkey tour too and they didn't change a thing. so what were they doing?



hopefully the new instrumental don't sound the same like the sinead remix. great remix but not for instrumentals. if there are any ofcourse...

There should be at least 2 instrumentals.

I keep having the feeling that this time there might be more instrumentals again. Of course I can't base it on anything and I might have had the same feeling before UTROTT was released, but.....

I too hope for a return of 6/5, or at least 7/4, of lyrical/instrumentals.

Instrumentals are great, but after a few years it are the lyrical single styled tracks that I listen to the most. It's a matter of taste ofcourse, but for me an album with much lyrical tracks is always more interesting to put in the CD player, even when it's older so to speak.

Indeed. I have listened to TSTE or TUAO far more than to ATBGO, AOL, BTTHJ or Sheffield.
But the problems with the single-style-albums are:
1. You have to rip more if you want to produce an album full of potential singles within one year
2. You have a big consumption of ideas and elements for the single styled tracks:
Take a look at the first two chapters - almost every single was a real bomb and was different from the singles before (compare "FasterHarderScooter", "F*ck the Millenium" and "I'm your pusher" or "Let me be your Valentine", "Rebel Yell" and "I'm raving" - each single has a different character, a different chorus style and differs even in the amount and style of HP's shouting and singing). Since TSTE we have many singles and album tracks that are similar ("Weekend", "The Night", "See me feel me"; "The question?", "ANM"; "Maria", "Rock Bottom", "TSTKE", "J'Adore Hardcore"). Maybe Scooter appear a bit overused to some people (this would - besides the bad release/promotion policy - explain the bad chart results of the last singles).
So: Back to less single style tracks consisting of the best ideas/elements Scooter find during the album production or taking more time for working on an album to collect more material and select, try to write own melodies, try out fresh shouting styles/track structures/effects and so on....

This seems close to the truth. TOO is fresh and new, but still, it's very similar to singles from TSTE and JAOTW.
This because it's the same build-up, the same concept.

Could well be that Mr. Hyper's theory is what really goes on.

It's not only a theory - I've seen it on reactions of friends (most of them are not Scooter fans) when playing the last two albums in my car, in my mate's partyroom etc..
They liked JAOTW very much - some of them who had never bought a Scooter CD before, bought the album. I guess JAOTW seemed fresh and happy after a longer period of "darker" tracks without a certain direction ("Behind the Cow" tried to combine the classical Scooter-style with house and hip hop elements; "WGTLLN?" tried to be a second, but weaker TSTE; TUAO was good, but there wasn't this defining hit either on it).
When they listened to UTROTT they weren't really interested in it because and said "it's the same again on the whole album - each track sounds similar to the other and to the tracks on JAOTW". And they thought like that even if UTROTT is better and more diverse than JAOTW. But obviously the freshness got lost from JAOTW to UTROTT.
Do Scooter blow too much single material into the air within short periods? (this would also fit to the rushed release policy with the last singles)
Should they take more time between the albums for making the audience more hungry and for finding the best single material they can and for improving it/arranging it as good as they can?
Or should they go back to the old 'experimental'-albums and concentrate their single-style-efforts on only 3-5 tracks?

agree with mr hyper here

seems like a great way to put it,
but it seems the new album at this time is gonna be a liitle more experimental, they mentioned, house, electro, trance, DnB, dubstep, jumpstyle and hardstyle

so im hoping the new album will have an experimental side to it too

as for TOO, a nice fresh track, but to me i resembles the usual build up, although it has been a while since a c part was added, aslo has a massive resemblene to one always hardcore, take that one element out, and it would have been a lot fresher

I disagree on JAOTW and UTROTT.

IMO, JAOTW has a good diversity. UTROTT, on the other hand, is much more monotone and boring.

JAOTW has a good diversity ???
apart Marian version , the rest I do not see it or diversified!



JAOTW is Jumpstyle album
UTROTT is Hardstyle album
except! The Sound Above My hair, second skin and metropolis

I think JAOTW has a bigger diversity than UTROTT. I find UTROTT boring, now, it's way too much similarity in the tracks.
