Electric Callboy have launched their reinventive new single, Revery.
Eschewing the vibrant and energetic sound they employed for 2022 album Tekkno, the German synth-metal crew have adopted a far darker, more horror-inspired approach.
Listen to their heavy new song and watch its video below.
The band comment: “We’re beyond excited to finally share Revery with you! This song dives into a darker, more serious side of our sound and means a lot to us personally because it’s so different from what we usually do.
“The whole process, from writing to shooting a very special kind of video, pushed us in new ways and made us even more excited for you to finally check it out!”
Revery is the second new Electric Callboy song of 2025, following January’s Elevator Operator. Despite the recent singles, the band haven’t announced a new album at time of publication.
The release of Revery precedes the start of the band’s European festival summer. They will headline the UK festivals Slam Dunk North and Slam Dunk South in Hatfield and Leeds, UK, on May 24 and 25, respectively.
After that, they will play further festivals on the continental mainland from June to August. The band have confirmed that, for these dates, their drummer will be Frank Zummo from Sum 41. The Canadian pop-punk stars wrapped up their farewell tour with two dates at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena on January 28 and 30, 2025.
Zummo is the temporary replacement for David-Karl Friedrich, who left Electric Callboy last month after 13 years of service. In a statement, Friederick said he hoped to “do something new and… follow his own path from now on”.
After the festival season, Electric Callboy will play two legs of a European headline tour. The first will take place in November 2025, and includes their biggest-ever London show at Alexandra Palace, and the second is set for January 2026. Bury Tomorrow and Wargasm will support.
