They actually did kind of a deep dive about the word eskimo, talked to some professor about it as well and then decided they should change the name to Electric Callboy.

Their original name was Eskimo Callboy. When they went viral and got successful, people started commenting that in America the word Eskimo is an offensive term for Inuits. In Germany it has no such meaning and it's completely normal to use it so the band knew nothing about this. They then talked to some professor about it and decided to change their name afterwards to calm people down. They have two videos about it on their youtube channel.

You've seen the chef (Kalle Koschinsky) before, though you may not recognise him. He was the lead dancer at the end of "Hypa Hypa" (HandOfBlood was also one of the dancers there, all the dancers were German KZbinrs) and he was the choreographer for that dance and also for all the dancing in this video. He also plays the lead role in "Arrow Of Love", which is kind of like the spiritual successor to the MC Thunder duology, and has a couple of his own music videos featuring some of the boys from EC too.

Yes they were originally Eskimo Callboy but the term Eskimo was considered offensive so they changed it a while back.

You should check out the making of MC Thunder II (on their channel) as you are interested in videography - these are always fun to watch from these guys Pascal ( guitarist ) and his brother Olli Schillo (Schillo brothers) film most of their music videos

That fella in the trunk of the first video is their drummer David Friedrich. David was on The Bachelorette in Germany and received the Final Rose from Jessica Paszka in 2017. So the band had to kidnap him from the overnight sweets hince he was wrapped up in sheets and the season's final rose.

They did used to be called Eskimo Callboy. Word on the street is a couple hard hittin Inuits tracked one of them down, dragged him back to the north and froze him into the shape of a chair. That was the old singer, before Nico. They made a deal with them that if they changed their name and held to it for the next 35 years, they would unfreeze the dude and let him go. I think they still have 32 years to go.

HandofBlood is a well known Streamer/KZbinr in Germany also Kalle Koschinsky the Cook in this Video. Theyre good friends with EC and produced those songs. Even if you wouldnt understand a thing one nice song with Kalle would be Kalle Koschinsky feat. Electric Callboy - Castrop X Spandau. Also in the First EC Video to introduce theyre new Singer Nico you can see Kalle and HandofBlood at the End in a whole Group of German Streamers and KZbinrs - Kalle was the Choreograph for the Dance "Hyper Hyper"

There are two trailers for this video that explain the connection between the first video and this one

So the style of TV show is Sentai, that would include Power Rangers and Kamen Rider. The vehicles for the power rangers were called zords. A similar but different type of show/movie would be Kaiju. That would be Godzilla and Gamera. Ultraman would be a Kaiju show.

Oh, there is a lot where you can react to. Did you already react to "We got the moves" or "Tekkno Train"? And yes they changed their name 2 years ago.

Yeah, they found out "eskimo" was offensive to certain people so they changed the band name.
