Tokio Hotel will not have its third album available till early next year, the German hit band's manager said Sunday, dashing hopes among teenage fans of a release this year.

The quartet, fronted by soft-faced 19-year-old singer Bill Kaulitz, has sent teen girls into a frenzy in Europe and is currently touring the United States.

The group won best new artist honours at the MTV Video Music Awards last month, and MTV Latin Awards this month.

Manager David Jost said, "There'll be no album release this year. It looks as if the third album will be out in March or April next year, probably simultaneously round the globe."

He said the band would also release a DVD on December 5 in Germany, Austria and Switzerland that would include footage of Bill Kaulitz in the recording studio making the new album.
