Good EP from German rock-band

"I really like this band, so I will make the most of this opportunity to review their EP:
The Germans have had this band at the bottom of their hearts and at the top of their charts since 2005. The French embraced them in 2006, and the rest of Europe pulled them tight to their chests in 2007. Will 2008 be the year these four young boys will take the USA with storm?
From the sound of this EP, yes, 2008 will be the year these boys conquer the big country across the pond as well! The title-track Scream is a powerful rock-song about not taking crap from anyone no matter what, about not letting anyone dictate how you are gonna live your life. Then there's the powerful sound of Ready, Set, Go! that blasts us away, this version remixed by Jade of AFI. To have someone that significant remix the song of a then unknown band (in the US at least) says a lot about the quality of this track.
In my opinion this was a great preview of what the Americans can expect when the band's English album, Scream, is released in America in April '08. As a Norwegian I have already had access to their music for quite a while, both their German and English songs, but that doesn't make this EP any less good. It is short, yes, but then again it is a preview that (sadly) seems to be aiming mainly to the band's already existing group of fans. However, it is well worth the money to give this band a chance, both with your ears and your hearts, and in April the full album will be available for you all as well!"

"Love the songs I just wish they put the original English version of Ready Set Go on it not the remix. The remix sounds more like a dance song not a rock song....I have the imported UK version of the entire Scream album, there are alot of good songs on it."
