Electric Callboy prepare TANZNEID. The biggest party metal event of the year arrives this August.

The German chaos machine known as Electric Callboy is back. And judging by all signs, fans of modern metal should prepare for another round of complete musical madness. The band has officially announced its new album, Tanzneid, set for release on August 7, 2026, via Century Media Records.

Over the past few years, Electric Callboy have quite literally taken over the modern metal scene. What many once viewed as a crazy internet experiment has evolved into one of Europe's biggest names in metalcore and electronicore. And honestly? It's easy to see why. This is not just a band. It's a full-scale collision of concert chaos, dance party energy, and crushing metal mayhem.

Following the massive success of 2022's Tekkno, it was clear that fans would expect nothing less than the maximum from the next album. Based on the first released tracks, Tanzneid looks set to be more than just a continuation of the previous era, it may be an even bigger and wilder ride.

Among the album's highlights is the already familiar hit Ratatata, created in collaboration with Japan's Babymetal, which instantly became one of the biggest metal viral sensations of recent years. The track perfectly demonstrates why Electric Callboy are so unique today, they are completely unafraid to combine elements that would seem utterly absurd in the hands of any other band. And somehow, it works perfectly.

Alongside Ratatata, the new record will also feature tracks such as Revery and Elevator Operator. Electric Callboy have not abandoned their trademark formula: crushing breakdowns, dancefloor-ready beats, electronics, massive choruses, and the unmistakable sense of humor that has always defined the band.

According to the information released so far, the album will contain fourteen tracks and will be available digitally on all major streaming platforms on August 7, 2026. Physical editions will be released on the same day, including standard CDs, several limited-edition vinyl variants, and special collector's packages for dedicated fans.

Today, Electric Callboy are among the bands that have successfully redefined modern metal for a new generation of listeners. Some people love them, others still have no idea what is actually happening around them. But one thing is impossible to deny: whenever Electric Callboy release a new album, the entire metal world pays attention.

And Tanzneid looks exactly like the kind of album that will push this crazy ride even further.
