About Electric Callboy

Emerging from Castrop-Rauxel, Germany, Electric Callboy (formerly Eskimo Callboy) have carved a unique and undeniably successful niche within the modern heavy music scene. Formed in 2010, the band initially gained traction with a sound that blended post-hardcore ferocity with danceable electronic elements. However, over the course of their career, they have fearlessly evolved, embracing their penchant for catchy hooks, singalong choruses, and an unapologetic embrace of all things pop, trance, and even schlager music, all while retaining their core metal aggression. This fearless experimentation has not only broadened their appeal exponentially but has also cemented their reputation as innovators rather than mere trend followers.

Their discography is a testament to their creative journey. Albums like “We Are the Mess” (2014) and “Hi, Human” (2017) showcased their developing sound, but it was with “Rehab” (2020) and the universally acclaimed “Tekkno” (2022) that Electric Callboy truly exploded onto the international stage. “Tekkno,” in particular, became a phenomenon, lauded for its infectious energy, clever lyrical content, and the band’s signature blend of brutal breakdowns and euphoric, trance-infused drops. Tracks such as “Pump It,” “We Got the Moves,” and “Spaceman” have become global anthems, racking up hundreds of millions of streams and solidifying their status as festival headliners and stadium fillers. Their ability to seamlessly weave between guttural screams, melodic clean vocals, and catchy synth melodies, all underpinned by driving guitar riffs and pounding rhythms, makes for an unparalleled sonic experience. Electric Callboy are not afraid to be bold, to be fun, and to push boundaries, and their live performances are the ultimate manifestation of this ethos.
