About Electric Callboy

Electric Callboy started as a German metalcore band with electronic flourishes, then basically reinvented themselves around 2020 when they shifted toward a more synth-heavy, industrial-influenced sound. The shift wasn't some gradual drift—it was pretty deliberate. Songs like 'Ava' and 'Pump It' showed them leaning hard into melodic, almost pop-adjacent hooks while keeping the heaviness intact, which shouldn't work but somehow does. They're the kind of band that makes sense in a room full of people who like both Bring Me The Horizon and actual electronic music. Their lyrics tend toward introspection and relationships rather than the typical metalcore angst, which gives them a different vibe than a lot of their peers. They've built a genuinely dedicated fanbase partly because they don't seem interested in playing it safe.

Chaotic in the best way. Crowd's constantly moving, mixing mosh pits with people just vibing to the synths. Singer is genuinely engaged, band plays with precision even when everything feels loose. Heavy moments hit hard, melodic moments connect.

Electric Callboy + Sacramento

Electric Callboy rolled through Sacramento in August 2023, bringing their particular brand of electronic-tinged metalcore to Ace of Spades. The German outfit stretched across 19 songs that night, mixing their heavier moments with the kind of dance-floor instincts that make them weird in the best way. They hit the obvious marks — "Hypa Hypa" and "Pump It" got the expected reactions — but it was the deeper cuts that made the set interesting. "Spaceman" let them flex their synth side, while "Parasite" and "Fuckboi" showed off the abrasive edge that separates them from the pack. The drum solo in the middle kept things kinetic. They closed with "We Got the Moves," which, given the setlist's range, felt like an appropriate final word on what they do.

Live Music in Sacramento

Sacramento's metal scene leans on tradition — plenty of hardcore and straight-ahead heavy music — but there's room for the weirder stuff. Electric Callboy's blend of club energy and guitar riffs finds an audience in a city that appreciates both the pit and the dance floor. The mid-sized venues like Ace of Spades have become crucial for bands that don't quite fit the mainstream rock template but have enough pull to draw a proper crowd.
