TEKKNO

Product Information

One of my favourite things about the electronic components of the album is how the band don't try to necessarily sound particularly modern/contemporary either with them, as is usually the case with other metalcore acts when implementing synths these days. On-brand as ever with their unapologetic love for classic, shamelessly fun vibes, the band very specifically draws from classic 80s, 90s and early 2000s eurodance/eurobeat, trance, acid house, hardstyle, schlager and more when it comes to the exact tone and soundscape of the synths, beats and loops at play here.

The lyrics deal with themes such as getting drunk, parties, and sex. [41] The band call their music "Porno Metal". [40] In an interview with the German magazine FUZE, vocalist Sebastian Biesler said that their lyrics only use clichés in a satirical way. [42] German Metal Hammer magazine published a positive review of the band, writing, "This is why Eskimo Callboy is enjoyable: because they dismiss themselves and let the fun rule". [43] Band members [ edit ] Electric Callboy went through a lot the passed couple of years. They got a new singer and a new band name. However, all changes ended up being for the better. The band has truly come into their own, and now with TEKKNO, they have released their best album yet. In fact, TEKKNO is may just be my favorite album of the year so far. a b c d e f g h i Trey (5 September 2022). "Review: Electric Callboy - Tekkno". Sputnikmusic .

Lately, a lot of metalcore bands have begun trying too hard to be serious, in ways that just feel forced and not truly heartfelt, as such, an album like this that focuses entirely on music's ability to be a positive, uplifting source of happiness, fulfilment and fun is such a breath of fresh air and stands out in the best way. On 8 April 2022, the band released their first song under their new name, "Spaceman", featuring rapper Finch. [25] On 15 April 2022, Electric Callboy announced their new upcoming studio album, Tekkno, which was released on 9 September 2022, and featuring the previously released singles "We Got the Moves" and "Pump It", along with "Spaceman". [26] [27] Speaking of the electronic components of the album, they are absolutely wonderful, taking what is already fantastic metalcore to a whole other level in terms of how they create a fiery, vibrant musical dynamic across the LP. The clash between the edgy, battered, worn looking section of the cover art with the bright and flash rainbow stripes down the side perfectly encapsulates the attitude of these songs -- they are full of bite and aggression yet also so perfectly full of colour, life and bold euphoria.On 8 April 2022, the band released their first song under their new name, "Spaceman", featuring rapper Finch.
