German electronicore band Electric Callboy have confirmed August 07th as the release release date for their seventh full-length album, “TANZNEID“. Century Media will be handling the release of that 14-song record, which has just received its fifth advance single in “Hypercharged“. That track arrives in collaboration with mobile MOBA game ‘Brawl Stars‘.
The below music video for the song follows suit in that partnership, serving as the introduction and theme to a new character dubbed Damian that is set to join the ranks of the over 100 characters already available in that game. Elaborating on how this multimedia union of sorts came about, Electric Callboy collectively stated:
“We’ve always been massive gaming fans, so teaming up with ‘Brawl Stars‘ felt like a perfect match from the start. The track came together naturally, and we loved seeing it take shape as Damian’s theme. Damian fits our sound like he was built for it. Heavy, explosive, and impossible to ignore. It’s pressure, groove, and madness all at once. We love it!”
As for “TANZNEID” and their vision for it, the band added:
“After our album TEKKNO and all the worldwide touring, TANZNEID took everything out of us. It was intense, exhausting, but also exactly what we needed after all the incredible moments we shared during that era.
With TANZNEID, we wanted to create something special, for our fans and for ourselves. Every track surges with energy. We took what we loved about TEKKNO and pushed it further, adding new elements, new sounds, and new extremes. Heavy beats, explosive drops, and moments that hit you right in the chest. The last singles RATATATA and Hypercharged were just the beginning. Now it’s raw, loud, and alive, in every pulse, every scream, every melody.
We wanted to match our music with your adrenaline, to create a record that pulls you onto the floor, makes your heart race, and doesn’t let go.
TANZNEID is built for the stage. So turn it up, lose yourself, and dance like no one’s watching.”
On August 08th the band will ring in the album’s release with the 2026 edition of ‘Escalation Fest‘ at Wuhlheide in Berlin, Germany. That event will feature an ‘Electric Bassboy‘ DJ set littered with remixes, a loveboat, an actual ‘Tekkno Train’ and more.
