Electric Callboy is a high‑energy German electronicore band that has carved out a unique place in modern heavy music with their blend of metalcore, EDM, and tongue‑in‑cheek humour. Formed in 2010 in Castrop‑Rauxel, Germany, the group originally gained underground attention before breaking through internationally thanks to viral hits like Hypa Hypa, We Got The Moves and Pump It — tracks known for their catchy hooks, genre‑bending production and raucous spirit. Their 2022 album TEKKNO marked a major milestone, topping charts and accumulating hundreds of millions of streams worldwide; the record’s success was further certified with gold status in countries like Finland and played a key role in expanding their global fan base. Their music videos for singles from TEKKNO have together amassed close to a quarter‑billion views, highlighting not just the songs but the band’s vibrant visual identity and the energetic culture that surrounds their music. Electric Callboy’s sound — a raucous mix of metalcore riffs, electronic dance elements, and irreverent lyrics — has redefined what a contemporary heavy band can be, helping them stand out as one of the most talked‑about acts in the scene today.
Over the past several years, Electric Callboy’s live performances and tours have become central to their rise. Their TEKKNO World Tour sold over 250,000 tickets, headlining shows and festivals around the world and bringing their explosive stage energy to fans across continents. They’ve also launched their own event, Escalation Fest, drawing large crowds annually and reinforcing their connection with their audience. Critics and peers have recognised their impact, with the band earning multiple honours at the Heavy Music Awards in the UK — including Best International Live Artist — for their unforgettable performances and global live reputation. Singles like Everytime We Touch and RATATATA (the latter in collaboration with BABYMETAL) have further broadened their reach, topping viral charts in dozens of countries and showcasing the band’s ability to make music that resonates with diverse audiences. As they continue into 2026 with their TANZNEID World Tour, Electric Callboy hit new highs of popularity and influence, turning every show into a celebratory blend of heavy music, electronic euphoria and relentless crowd‑pleasing energy — a testament to their evolution from local underground act to a genre‑bending global phenomenon
