The stuff David has been doing is absolutely amazing. And the fact that you're tying in the new merch to charity and what he's doing is awesome. I'll definitely be getting one!
Electro Callboy was the first idea that i had once they announced they are considering changing the name.. Rolls off of toung much easier.. Oh, well.. Zu spät..
You guys are all so amazing! Not only is everyone helping during this tragic time! Also, this is going to be my first merch from you guys and I am proud that I will be wearing it with the new band name AND knowing that all of the proceeds go to an amazing cause.
I actually think the new name sounds better than the old name, and actually fits the band! I never knew what the old name was supposed to mean and was confused by it So 100% support the new name
Ihr seid und bleibt einfach der Hammer! Der Name bleibt in Erinnerung! Das wichtige seid IHR! Ich freue mich schon Euch in Hamburg live zu sehen Electric Callboy! See you at ESC 2023!
I noticed some people give you guys the idea of “Electric Callboy” and you guys used it, that’s really cool! Shows you guys are listening to your fans! Much love!
@@Salomon_G by any chace.... are you an eskimo, and more importantly, could you explain in your own words -not someone else's- why the word is a racial slur and why its appearance as the name of a band would be cause of offense to the peoples it refers to... in particular when some are actually proud of being recognized as eskimo? I spent 2 years in Alaska, and the Yupik I got to meet are very much ok with the term. The reason I ask is it seems to me you yourself are spitting rhetoric that you did not come up with on your own.
@@Salomon_G You see, Kraut is a term that, from my experience with Germans, they don't give a flying fuck about (I should know, I graduated Abitur from an international Alexander von Humboldt school) and they even use it themselves to refer to other things, depending on the context. Because context matters. You are mistaken in that Inuit is the *actual* name of all arctic peoples. It is the name of a tribe, but the Yupik are NOT Inuit. How do you think the Yupik or the Aleut feel about being called Inuit because some other dudes felt unhappy by the former context (see how context matters?) of an umbrella term that is not really offensive in nature - there's no consensus amongst expert linguists on the origin of the word. I can almost taste the irony AND the double standard. Also, I'm still waiting for the explanation in your own words on why the word is offensive (rather than sending me to do research when you are saying yourself I probably know it already). That other dude may be all about anti cancel culture, but you appear to be on the complete opposite side of the spectrum by defending being offended on behalf of others. Now, to answer your question: do I care about the feelings of those folks who claim to be offended by the particular use of a word? The answer is no. They are probably unaware of what words being used incorrectly tick me off, so, in reciprocity, I would not dare entertain the idea of keeping them under any obligation to care. And, no, I am not deciding that they shouldn't feel offended. If they feel offended and rage, that's their prerogative. But in my very personal opinion, it does not help anyone's mental health to become angered absent ill-intent. I would argue, though, that the fact that the word exists and is used in contexts that do not seek to offend is reason enough to not be deemed insensitive if one actively chooses to use it. The way I see it, the same applies to the shock value of any "charged" language. Perhaps a better direction, culturally, would be to develop acuity and emotional management instead of overprotecting susceptibilities. We'd get along much better in general.
Great choice for the new name, it's almost like it didn't change at all and sounds great! People don't often associate this kind of music with charitable giving and looking out for other people, but what you're doing is amazing and puts metal in the best of lights.
Thanks for keeping the community current, love the new name - appreciate the update. Godspeed and love to Ukraine and the innocent/oppressed civilians of Russia during these difficult times.
Still EC, still has a good ring to it. I like it. Y'all handled this pretty much the best way possible, much respect from some random dude in the States
I'm a seafarer from Mariupol. Now i don't have any contacts with my relatives 😔 I have internet onboard only 1 time for a week, today i opened news and... I wasn't so much depressed in my life😣 The city is blocked, there is no electricity, water and food, lot of dead people lay just on the streets, the local maternity hospital is totally destroyed. TOTALLY! I don't understand this shit... And i will never forget it.
Guys, hello from peaceful russians. Thank you for your activity, it's really important now. We (good people) are feared by police, by government, we don't have any free media by facist laws, but 'll fight with that nightmare in Ukraine. Make love, not war - and again, thank you for protecting our minds by your energistic music and light of happiness. Maybe someday I'll see you in person in free Russia and give a brutal metal hugs, but nowadays we can only write here. You are the best. Go on.
@@DarknessFlameMedia Actually we know, whats Happening in the world, because we have free Media, everbod, can get all the information, he needs to come to his own conclusions. What about Russia?
@@DarknessFlameMedia man, if you live enough here, in Russia, you can adapt to all type of things. But last 5 years is weirdest. And by my humble opinion, no one Iraq, Syria and vice versa approve that sh*t going. If you think that here exists laws, free media, worthy law places, honorable police - it's your mistake. In Russia you can only live with family for $500 at month and fear that any your word can be approved as extremistic if it counters the opinion of government.
@@matschi303 Thanks a lot, but I don't know German at all) By the way, my profession not demanded at all. And, you know, we have one song from russian rock group with words "I so loved my country, by I so hate my polity". We have wealth, strong and intellectual people and minds, so leaving all that now I can't allow to myself.
The only issue I have with the name change is that it doesn't have the same flow because the first word ends with a C, maybe Electro would sound smoother. But who cares about the name as long as your music and you guys yourselves remain awesome.
Nope. I Identify as a Black woke vagina. Even suggesting that you are a 'boy' offends me. I highly suggest this is changed otherwise I will never be able to survive on this planet.
Folge David auf Instagram und es ist wirklich großartig was er und die anderen da auf die Beine gestellt haben!

Although I have just started listening to you lads this year, (As a Ukrainian Fan) I want to personally thank you guys so much for your support of Ukraine!
No matter the name of the band, people love you guys alot. But now, the decision made for the change up, you guys just gain extrs millions of respect. Electric Callboy ALL THE WAY!!!!
I used to be an Aviation Meteorological Equipment Technician (5938). But I just couldn't go on oppressing electrons and other charged particles across the universe. Release all electrons! Free Electrons across the galaxy! Grounded circuits are chargest circuits!
I just want to quickly say you guys always put a big smile on my face. I know its cliche and everyone says it, but it really helps when so much of life is tough right now. Im forever greatful. Thankyou eskimo callboy
Much respect to David for helping himself where it is needed most! And of course much respect to you guys for changing the bands name! It's not my favourite but I'll get used to it and as you said it doesn't change what makes you guys great! Much love from Cologne 😘👁
Being totally honest, I feel like Electric Callboy doesn‘t flow off the tongue quite as smoothly as your old name did. But I‘ll get used to it and like you said, it‘s just a name, your music and spirit will still be you, so I‘m looking forward to your next crazy masterpiece!
I’m 45 and tend to get stuck in my own head with my own life and the state of the world seeming to be mostly chaos. Keep doing your thing because you truly make this place better
As you said, takes some time for the new name to get used to. I like, that it has the same sound, EC is still the short version and you can create a second meaning by saying it fast: Electrical Boy
So close. I was hoping for something like Eclectic Callboy, which still has a quirkiness to it, but like you and many others have said it's not the name of the band that has us following you and subscribed to your channel. I'm glad you were able to find a name that maintains the EC since a lot of people do refer to you that way. I can't speak for everyone, but everyone I know is with you in shifting our focus towards the events in the east. Respect to you and David, best wishes with the drive and the driving.
yo in times like these fun stuff like y'all's music is more important than it seems, reminders that the world doesn't entirely suck and there are still reasons to smile or laugh or make a stank face at a punishing breakdown can go a long way towards keeping folks going also the name change is solid, definitely in line with your style
You all just bring the biggest smile to my face and warm my heart! Thank you for everything you do, you care about everyone. The name change is perfect and I will be donating from over here in Australia! My brother and his family live in Rzeszów, Poland and are helping with the current situation over there as well. The things i'm hearing are heartbreaking. Thank you for being so awesome. Much love.
@@throwawayaccountm1325 In the U.S., there are two populations who don't consider it an ethnic slur: the Inupiat and Yupit. There are some of the younger generation who have been told to hate it by their school systems, so some do My grandma, aunts, uncles and cousins all referred to themselves as 'Eskimo'' growing up; we still do Sad to see that the group bowed to peer pressure; talented musicians, but now, I don't feel the connection to them that I did
@@spidey1170 I think your overreacting. They just changed their name "I dont feel the connection them that I did" it doesent change the music at all. If you only feel a connection to the music because of the name, maybe this band just isnt for you.
@@whatburnsneverreturns Or, you're underreacting; capitulating to woke demands is never a good look; and yes, I love their music; now, they just have a generic name to which I have no connection But okay, go ahead and tell me how I should feel as an Eskimo, it's been happening a lot lately to minorities
Mega gut! Der Namenswechsel wird euch in der Zukunft eine Menge Probleme ersparen und wie ihr sagtet, sonst ändert sich ja nichts. Electric Callboy, der perfekte Kompromiss. Auch super, dass ihr die Aufmerksamkeit für den Namenswechsel mit dem Hinweis auf die Charity verbindet. Toll, was da auf die Beine gestellt wurde und hoffentlich kommt eine Menge dabei rum.
Electric Callboy let's gooooooo! Thank you for hearing the concerns and actually doing something about it, my respect for this band has absolutely sky rocketed.
Love you guys! Congratulations on the new name, we will get used to it. Thank you for being so open and honest with the process. You didn't have to take us along on that journey, but you did, and we appreciate it!! Can't wait to see you all in October!!!
Hallo zusammen, habe eben euer Charity-Shirt vorbestellt und einen Fehler entdeckt... Im Text, der das Peace-Zeichen umrundet steht "... the power of love will overrules...". Das "overrules" müsste hier ohne -s geschrieben werden meiner Meinung nach 😉 Hoffentlich sind die Shirts nicht schon im Druck. Danke für eure super Musik und die tollen Videos!
I haven't scrolled down, but in case anyone hasn't quotes this master yet: "What's in a name? That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet" - Billy S. IDGAF what you call yourselves - your music is still just as FEKN SWEET
You are great guys! And Electric Callboy? It's still you, so I like it. Greetings from Poland, where a lot of people give their hearts for Ukrainians 🇺🇦
Wow David is an amazing person doing amazing things! The name Electric Callboy sounds great, no potential harm caused & has a similar phonetic appeal, win win. Thank you for using your platform to bring awareness & help to those who need it in Ukraine 💙💛☮
The integrity, compassion and courage all you guys are displaying is a huge inspiration and a great example for the world to see. You have a fan for life here!
Honestly, it felt like a natural and easily shiftable name change. Same initials, same cadence, sounds good. You guys are genuine and I like everything you're doing. Thanks for speaking to us and of course for all the entertainment! I've introduced many people to your songs, videos, and works. I will continue to do so with even more enthusiasm!
Ich liebe euren name change. Es kling sehr nice und passt auch sehr gut zu euch! Der Hintergrund dazu ist sehr gut und ihr geht sehr respektvoll damit um. Ich muss aber sagen das ich traurig darüber bin das eure erste EP nicht mehr auf Spotify verfügbar ist, da auch wenn sie sehr alt ist und noch zu euren Anfängen war, ich sie trotzdem sehr enjoyed habe. Aber natürlich ist es verständlich, da sie sehr vulgär ist und halt Eskimo Callboy heißt xD. LG
You've done something amazing here and it's incredible to see how you've taken feedback on these issues in such a proactive manner. Also props to David, that's incredible of him! I'll be buying that shirt asap. Danke!
Спасибо, ребят. Люблю вас, вы классные! Рада, что вы не остались в стороне от того безумия, что творится сейчас. Только ваша музыка отвлекает и даёт сил❤️ И да, новое название 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@junkrider132 Einen über mehr als 10 Jahre hinweg aufgebauten Markennamen zu verändern, darf man mM als mutig bezeichnen. Kannst du natürlich anders sehen.
Was ist daran mutig, sich dem hysterisch woken Zeitgeist anzupassen? Vor allem dann noch pünktlich für die ESC Bewerbung, was ja eh nichts gebracht hat.
Neuer Name schön und gut ... Für mich bleibt ihr Eskimo Callboy, bin Fan seid dem es nur 3 Songs von euch gab da fühlt sich das komisch an. Aber die Spendenaktion ist einfach mega 💪
@@mOOny187 Wegen der Bezeichnung "Eskimo", was meines Wissens nach soviel bedeutet wie "Fischfresser"... Das war einigen (mir auch) ziemlich lang nicht klar und man hatte es ja auch so beigebracht bekommen. Da die indigene Kultur und alles drumherum aber jetzt an Aufmerksamkeit gewonnen hat, wird es jetzt zum Glück allgemein bekannt. Ist also nur richtig, dass sie den Namen ändern (:
There are not enough words for how awesome you guys are. Looking out for your fellow human beings is the most metal thing a person can do and here you guys are proving you're metal af! I wish peace and safety for everyone and especially for David!
My bet was on Escalation/Escalating Callboy or Castrop Callboy(s), but Electric Callboy is also good. And please offer that shirt in a version for girls as well! 👍
So, you guys had to change the Bands name.. well, why do I have the feeling that the ESC does have to do with this. Let’s see what happens over the next few weeks.. 100$ on “we can’t bring a band with Eskimo in there name”
Love it fellas, you’re such a fantastic example of what music is meant to be- bringing people together and finding common ground through art and expression 🖤
You guys are amazing!!! It only makes sense that good people make really good music!! - Just a Ukrainian that will hopefully see you guys perform in BK :)
Just seeing this now, upset not seeing it on release so I smashed that bell. Saw the name and was like man thats just a great name and easy to get used to. I am impressed that you updated the water marks in your videos.
Uff am Ende wird dann auch noch das Airhumping verboten oder was? Die Leute sollten echt mal aufhören Spaß zu hassen. Aber bei "Eskimo" kann ich es absolut nachvollziehen, da es tatsächlich eine große Gruppe von Menschen beleidigt und degradiert.
@@thedarkfox9851 du kannst "große Gruppe" nicht wirklich definieren. Ich persönlich bin eh kein Fan mehr seit Suschi die Band verlassen hat also kanns mir ehrlich gesagt egal sein. Finds hald schade, dass es das alte Eskimo Callboy nicht mehr gibt. Fand besonders die Lieder der 1. Ep richtig gut. Sowas wie "Prom Night" kann ich mir immer wieder anhören. Aber tja alles hat ein Ende.
Hier kommt ne coole Band die mit Vorurteilen spielt, diese auf die Schippe nimmt und alle lachen drüber. Dann kommt die immer getriggerte ABC Mafia, oder nen paar Spinner auf Twitter und alle jubeln. So wenig Rückrad ist schon traurig. Damit hat die Band für mich die Authentizität verloren. Wer fand Eskimos wegen eures Namens denn doof? Was war schlecht dran, ich sehe als nicht SJW nichtmal wo das Problem liegt und müsste das erst googeln. Meine Fresse. Btw fühle ich mich durch euch getriggert weil ihr keinen Arsch in der Hose habt. "Legt bitte eure Staatsangehörigkeit ab und sucht euch ne neue weil ich das doof finde." Würdet ihr das dann auch machen?
@@Balberoy Ich bin definitiv kein SJW, aber du sagst schon selbst du müsstest es Googlen... weiss nicht ob man sich seine Meinung bilden sollte ohne Hintergrundinformation. Die Jungs haben das übrigens getan, also sich informiert und dann eine Entscheidung getroffen. Gibts auch als Video hier. Und sorry aber du beschwerst dich darüber, dass SJW's von allem getriggert werden und bist es selbst. Versteh die Doppelmoral nicht.
@@thedarkfox9851 jeder ist heute von allem getriggert. Wer suchet der findet. "Überall ist die Benachteiligung der Frau, ihr müsst nur genug suchen". Zitat Anita Sarkisian. Es gibt Grenzen. Die sind bei uns durch die Meinungsfreiheit festgelegt. Beispielsweise sind Beleidigungen verboten. Wer hier im Gleichschritt sich als Gutmensch definiert und so jedem alles Recht machen will ist für mich ein Spinner
Electric Callboy - sounds good) Thank you guys for not joining the general hysteria of canceling the Russians. We are also terrified and also suffering.

The stuff David has been doing is absolutely amazing. And the fact that you're tying in the new merch to charity and what he's doing is awesome. I'll definitely be getting one!
Do you really support the name change? Are you woke, too?
@@Zombot012 changing your name doesn't mean changing your style
@@opavodnik7982 It's still stupidly woke and submitting to cancel culture.
@@Zombot012 If submitting to cancel culture means I get to pay my bills on time, count me in.
@@Zombot012 I'm sorry, I just don't see how being respectful of other cultures and not promoting negative stereotypes is a bad thing.
Electric goes perfect with the current retro/synth/80s styles mixed into your metal, so that's an awesome name change 🤘
Also the abbreviation EC stays the same

Danke schön für die Unterstützung!😭 Eure ukrainischen Fans schätzen, dass sie die Situation verstehen und darüber sprechen!🥺 Danke für die Hilfe! 💙💛
Wishing you all the strength in the world right now!
@@TheHighPhobia thank you so much!
Hoffe du bist in Sicherheit und alles gute.
@@Sethnaa ja, relativ sicher, danke sehr
Be strong, all the world is standing behind you!
Guys, thank you very much for your support. Your songs are amazing! I'm from Kherson, Ukraine.
Love the name. Fits with the band's personality 🎉 keep rocking boys!
Much respect to David for helping himself where it is needed most! And of course much respect to you guys for changing the bands name! It's not my favourite but I'll get used to it and as you said it doesn't change what makes you guys great! Much love from Cologne 😘👁
"Electric Callboy" finde ich richtig Klasse von euch diesen Schritt zu wagen. Respect!
Being totally honest, I feel like Electric Callboy doesn‘t flow off the tongue quite as smoothly as your old name did. But I‘ll get used to it and like you said, it‘s just a name, your music and spirit will still be you, so I‘m looking forward to your next crazy masterpiece!
I honestly think it sounds better than the old name haha, but that might be because I’m a new fan and haven’t heard their old name a lot
I’m 45 and tend to get stuck in my own head with my own life and the state of the world seeming to be mostly chaos. Keep doing your thing because you truly make this place better
Love the new Name, love you und will buy the new Shirt asap! 😍😍😍
Huge respect for David! Safe travels to him and all the people he's helped and helping! 💙💛
You guys are the Best in every way. What a great charity. I wish everyone peace. ❤️
As you said, takes some time for the new name to get used to. I like, that it has the same sound, EC is still the short version and you can create a second meaning by saying it fast: Electrical Boy
Nice catch, I missed that :D
Geeenius
Many thanks from Odesa, Ukraine......
So close. I was hoping for something like Eclectic Callboy, which still has a quirkiness to it, but like you and many others have said it's not the name of the band that has us following you and subscribed to your channel. I'm glad you were able to find a name that maintains the EC since a lot of people do refer to you that way.
I can't speak for everyone, but everyone I know is with you in shifting our focus towards the events in the east. Respect to you and David, best wishes with the drive and the driving.
yo in times like these fun stuff like y'all's music is more important than it seems, reminders that the world doesn't entirely suck and there are still reasons to smile or laugh or make a stank face at a punishing breakdown can go a long way towards keeping folks going
also the name change is solid, definitely in line with your style
You all just bring the biggest smile to my face and warm my heart! Thank you for everything you do, you care about everyone. The name change is perfect and I will be donating from over here in Australia! My brother and his family live in Rzeszów, Poland and are helping with the current situation over there as well. The things i'm hearing are heartbreaking. Thank you for being so awesome. Much love.
Guys u are sooo humble and have such a big heart love the new name all for it much love to the world right now
That name actually fits a lot more
I still don't understand what was wrong about your old band name, can comeone explain it to me please? Eskimo isnt a slur
That's the ridiculous thing about it.. it's not like the N word, afaik Eskimo is just a term who describes people from a certain region on earth.
Heck yeah dudes! Well said on all accounts. Keep it real Electric Callboy!
Most wholesome boys in metal. Love you guys.
I'm convinced that it is the most wholesome genre!
Electric Callboy is nice! :) Love ya guys.
As an actual Eskimo, I'm sad that you decided to change your name. All my friends and family loved it... (Inupiaq and Yupiq Eskimos)
So is Eskimo an actual slur, or is that something people get offended over for no reason?
@@throwawayaccountm1325 In the U.S., there are two populations who don't consider it an ethnic slur: the Inupiat and Yupit. There are some of the younger generation who have been told to hate it by their school systems, so some do
My grandma, aunts, uncles and cousins all referred to themselves as 'Eskimo'' growing up; we still do
Sad to see that the group bowed to peer pressure; talented musicians, but now, I don't feel the connection to them that I did
@@spidey1170 I think your overreacting. They just changed their name "I dont feel the connection them that I did" it doesent change the music at all. If you only feel a connection to the music because of the name, maybe this band just isnt for you.
@@whatburnsneverreturns He is overreacting?
I guess all the ppl who are offended by a fking Band Name are overreacting...
PI til i die
@@whatburnsneverreturns Or, you're underreacting; capitulating to woke demands is never a good look; and yes, I love their music; now, they just have a generic name to which I have no connection
But okay, go ahead and tell me how I should feel as an Eskimo, it's been happening a lot lately to minorities
Awesome. Love that you kept Callboy in it!
Mega gut! Der Namenswechsel wird euch in der Zukunft eine Menge Probleme ersparen und wie ihr sagtet, sonst ändert sich ja nichts. Electric Callboy, der perfekte Kompromiss.
Auch super, dass ihr die Aufmerksamkeit für den Namenswechsel mit dem Hinweis auf die Charity verbindet. Toll, was da auf die Beine gestellt wurde und hoffentlich kommt eine Menge dabei rum.
Congrats boys! Looking back you will see that a name is minute. doesn't change any of your amazing music :)
Electric Callboy let's gooooooo! Thank you for hearing the concerns and actually doing something about it, my respect for this band has absolutely sky rocketed.
Coole Entscheidung! War auch kurz überrascht, bis ich dieses Video gesehen hab. Alles richtig gemacht! 😃👍
Love you guys! Congratulations on the new name, we will get used to it. Thank you for being so open and honest with the process. You didn't have to take us along on that journey, but you did, and we appreciate it!!
Can't wait to see you all in October!!!
Thank you for your contributions guys ❤🤗 Electric Callboy sounds dope btw 👍
Loving the new name and the whole message! Love you guys 💜
Electric Callboy is sick! It fits so well and I’m already caught on it. Way to go lads
Hallo zusammen,
habe eben euer Charity-Shirt vorbestellt und einen Fehler entdeckt... Im Text, der das Peace-Zeichen umrundet steht "... the power of love will overrules...". Das "overrules" müsste hier ohne -s geschrieben werden meiner Meinung nach 😉
Hoffentlich sind die Shirts nicht schon im Druck.
Danke für eure super Musik und die tollen Videos!
I haven't scrolled down, but in case anyone hasn't quotes this master yet:
"What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet" - Billy S.
IDGAF what you call yourselves - your music is still just as FEKN SWEET
I love it you guys are amazing! I’m in! Love peace and support to all the Ukrainian people.
You are great guys! And Electric Callboy? It's still you, so I like it. Greetings from Poland, where a lot of people give their hearts for Ukrainians 🇺🇦
Wow David is an amazing person doing amazing things! The name Electric Callboy sounds great, no potential harm caused & has a similar phonetic appeal, win win. Thank you for using your platform to bring awareness & help to those who need it in Ukraine 💙💛☮
The integrity, compassion and courage all you guys are displaying is a huge inspiration and a great example for the world to see. You have a fan for life here!
Honestly, it felt like a natural and easily shiftable name change. Same initials, same cadence, sounds good. You guys are genuine and I like everything you're doing. Thanks for speaking to us and of course for all the entertainment! I've introduced many people to your songs, videos, and works. I will continue to do so with even more enthusiasm!
Everything about this video was fantastic. Y’all are awesome
Electric Callboy? Love it. Good stuff guys, rock on!
Man you guys are just wholesome AF 😭. Der neuer Name klingt echt spitze!
Ich liebe euren name change. Es kling sehr nice und passt auch sehr gut zu euch! Der Hintergrund dazu ist sehr gut und ihr geht sehr respektvoll damit um. Ich muss aber sagen das ich traurig darüber bin das eure erste EP nicht mehr auf Spotify verfügbar ist, da auch wenn sie sehr alt ist und noch zu euren Anfängen war, ich sie trotzdem sehr enjoyed habe.
Aber natürlich ist es verständlich, da sie sehr vulgär ist und halt Eskimo Callboy heißt xD. LG
Ihr seid die symphatischten musiker die ich in meinem Leben je kennengelernt habe. Viel Glück auf euerer weiteren Reise.
You've done something amazing here and it's incredible to see how you've taken feedback on these issues in such a proactive manner.
Also props to David, that's incredible of him! I'll be buying that shirt asap.
Danke!
Спасибо, ребят. Люблю вас, вы классные! Рада, что вы не остались в стороне от того безумия, что творится сейчас. Только ваша музыка отвлекает и даёт сил❤️
И да, новое название 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Неее, новое название не подчёркивает забавность названия, теперь это звучит как название порно…
@@celioway4219 оно и до того звучало как забавная порнушка))) мне нравится. Правда теперь это что-то ближе к роботам
Great name and decision, love you guys! Stop the war against Ukraine!
Thank you guys from all the people of Ukraine!!!

Stabil Jungs
gratismut
@@junkrider132 Einen über mehr als 10 Jahre hinweg aufgebauten Markennamen zu verändern, darf man mM als mutig bezeichnen. Kannst du natürlich anders sehen.
@@junkrider132 wenn Trixie das Vokabular vorgibt. Noch ein "Gutmensch" oder "Teddybärenwerfer" als Nachschlag?
Was ist daran mutig, sich dem hysterisch woken Zeitgeist anzupassen? Vor allem dann noch pünktlich für die ESC Bewerbung, was ja eh nichts gebracht hat.
@@sebastianpappert2351 was isn ein trixie?
Neuer Name schön und gut ... Für mich bleibt ihr Eskimo Callboy, bin Fan seid dem es nur 3 Songs von euch gab da fühlt sich das komisch an. Aber die Spendenaktion ist einfach mega 💪
Ich hoffe nur, dass dir auch bewusst ist, warum sie den Namen geändert haben. Hörst dich nämlich etwas genervt an min jung (;
@@korochias warum ändern sie den Namen?
In keinster Weise genervt, aber ja vielleicht eher konservativ in der Sache stell dir vor die Böhsen Onkelz heißen plötzlich "freche Jungs" ...
@@mOOny187 Wegen der Bezeichnung "Eskimo", was meines Wissens nach soviel bedeutet wie "Fischfresser"... Das war einigen (mir auch) ziemlich lang nicht klar und man hatte es ja auch so beigebracht bekommen. Da die indigene Kultur und alles drumherum aber jetzt an Aufmerksamkeit gewonnen hat, wird es jetzt zum Glück allgemein bekannt. Ist also nur richtig, dass sie den Namen ändern (:
It's a cool name, congrats boys! And a big thank you to David for everything he's doing.
There are not enough words for how awesome you guys are. Looking out for your fellow human beings is the most metal thing a person can do and here you guys are proving you're metal af! I wish peace and safety for everyone and especially for David!
I've been pumping your music for over a year now but for the name change it was about time ;)
My bet was on Escalation/Escalating Callboy or Castrop Callboy(s), but Electric Callboy is also good. And please offer that shirt in a version for girls as well! 👍
So, you guys had to change the Bands name.. well, why do I have the feeling that the ESC does have to do with this. Let’s see what happens over the next few weeks.. 100$ on “we can’t bring a band with Eskimo in there name”
Love it fellas, you’re such a fantastic example of what music is meant to be- bringing people together and finding common ground through art and expression 🖤
Just ordered a t shirt from the UK, proud of you guys, your drummer is a real hero!
Für mich bleibt ihr immer die Eskimo Callboys aber Electric Callboy passt auch unglaublich gut zu euch! Wir sehen uns in Kiel
You guys are amazing!!! It only makes sense that good people make really good music!! - Just a Ukrainian that will hopefully see you guys perform in BK :)
Just a little disappointed about the name change, but of course it's your decision, I'll keep supporting you guys on everything you do with your art.
I understand changing the name from Eskimo but what about the backlash you might get from all the callboys? What then?
Just seeing this now, upset not seeing it on release so I smashed that bell. Saw the name and was like man thats just a great name and easy to get used to. I am impressed that you updated the water marks in your videos.
Good choice. Great initiative by David. Happy to support.
ich bin schon gespannt wann dann das callboy wegfällt weil sich leute dadurch getriggert fühlen.
Uff am Ende wird dann auch noch das Airhumping verboten oder was?
Die Leute sollten echt mal aufhören Spaß zu hassen.
Aber bei "Eskimo" kann ich es absolut nachvollziehen, da es tatsächlich eine große Gruppe von Menschen beleidigt und degradiert.
@@thedarkfox9851 du kannst "große Gruppe" nicht wirklich definieren. Ich persönlich bin eh kein Fan mehr seit Suschi die Band verlassen hat also kanns mir ehrlich gesagt egal sein. Finds hald schade, dass es das alte Eskimo Callboy nicht mehr gibt. Fand besonders die Lieder der 1. Ep richtig gut. Sowas wie "Prom Night" kann ich mir immer wieder anhören. Aber tja alles hat ein Ende.
Hier kommt ne coole Band die mit Vorurteilen spielt, diese auf die Schippe nimmt und alle lachen drüber. Dann kommt die immer getriggerte ABC Mafia, oder nen paar Spinner auf Twitter und alle jubeln. So wenig Rückrad ist schon traurig. Damit hat die Band für mich die Authentizität verloren.
Wer fand Eskimos wegen eures Namens denn doof? Was war schlecht dran, ich sehe als nicht SJW nichtmal wo das Problem liegt und müsste das erst googeln. Meine Fresse. Btw fühle ich mich durch euch getriggert weil ihr keinen Arsch in der Hose habt. "Legt bitte eure Staatsangehörigkeit ab und sucht euch ne neue weil ich das doof finde." Würdet ihr das dann auch machen?
@@Balberoy Ich bin definitiv kein SJW, aber du sagst schon selbst du müsstest es Googlen... weiss nicht ob man sich seine Meinung bilden sollte ohne Hintergrundinformation.
Die Jungs haben das übrigens getan, also sich informiert und dann eine Entscheidung getroffen. Gibts auch als Video hier.
Und sorry aber du beschwerst dich darüber, dass SJW's von allem getriggert werden und bist es selbst. Versteh die Doppelmoral nicht.
@@thedarkfox9851 jeder ist heute von allem getriggert. Wer suchet der findet. "Überall ist die Benachteiligung der Frau, ihr müsst nur genug suchen". Zitat Anita Sarkisian. Es gibt Grenzen. Die sind bei uns durch die Meinungsfreiheit festgelegt. Beispielsweise sind Beleidigungen verboten. Wer hier im Gleichschritt sich als Gutmensch definiert und so jedem alles Recht machen will ist für mich ein Spinner
Electric Callboy - sounds good)
Thank you guys for not joining the general hysteria of canceling the Russians. We are also terrified and also suffering. I see that you are humanists like me, my friends and the majority of the sane population of this planet. I kiss your songs and wish you peace and prosperity!
i agree
Судя по отсутствию премьеры Spaceman. Истерия все же пришла. эх
слышь куколд, говори за себя
Ой. А что что-то случилось? Как так то?
@@CypherPaw ничего умнее ты придумать не смог походу
WOW! I already loved these guys just because they are fun. But a whole new level of respect has been added.
Electric Callboy sound so cool. I love it. You're such a nice guys, lots of love from Poland
yall are so delightful!!! so glad to have found yall thru We Got The Moves!!!
