Electric Callboy

“It is motherfucking EC!”
So who are these guys from the tongue-breaking german city called “Castrop-Rauxel”?

Electric Callboy (formerly known as Eskimo Callboy) consists of these 6 dudes (left to right):
Daniel “Jack Daniel” Klossek (Bass)
Pascal Schillo (Guitar)
Daniel “Dans” Haniß (Guitar)
Nico Sallach (Vocals)
Kevin Ratajczak (Vocals, Synths)
David Friedrich (Drums)

The band was formed in 2010. At that time Michael “Micha” Malitzki was playing drums until he had to step back in 2012 from beeing a professional touring musician for health reasons with his arm, that prevented him to play several shows in a row within a short time, without causing pain in his arm.
After releasing their first debut-album “Bury Me In Vegas” their prominence skyrocket. They played a couple of shows and also had their very first Asia tour, right after that tour they played as a support act for their friends in Callejon.
In early 2020 Sebastian “Sushii” Biesler (Vocals) surprisingly left the band in favor for his new solo project named “Ghøstkid“.
On June 4th former “To The Rats and Wolves” singer Nico Sallach joined the band as the new singer, which was revealed in a teaser for the music video of “Hypa Hypa” and “Hate/Love”, both singles are part of the new EP “MMXX” with the new singer.

In march 2022 they made the decision (which was kind of announced few months ago) to get rid of the old name “Eskimo Callboy” since – especially in North America – the term “Eskimo” is considered as racist and they didn’t want to insult anybody with this naming. More details on this topic can be found on their YouTube channel.

Electric Callboy became very fast popular in Germany and also in Eastern Europe, especially in Ukraine and Russia.
But they also have a growing fanbase in the United States, Japan, United Kingdom and Australia.

In 2023 their ticket sales resulted in an almost sold out Germany, UK, US and Australia Tour!

One of the key aspects of their popularity is their very own kind of genre. They combined metalcore with a nice amount of techno and trance elements.
The result? Heavy, yet danceable party-metalcore!
