Electric Callboy is just such a fun band,

Indeed! And now more from them, featuring the last suggested song and then some others from the album because I just want to finish listening to the album at this point:

==========================

Electric Callboy - Hurrikan:

Estimated Score: 57.96

Not as immediately appealing as the other suggested songs by the band, but I still kinda like it. The opening verses are light and simple, in a way that's nice enough; they're not as catchy as some of the band's songs, feeling a bit weak--but I kinda like them anyway and it's nice to have some more German music. It then goes pure metal for the end of the song and it's also nice enough? It's kinda dark:

Oh honey, I'm ready to die
Oh, you feast on my blood, my bones, my guts

But... as I've mentioned once or twice before, I'm not really into cannibalism, so I'm not exactly hyped by either the "metaphor for sex" or "literal" interpretations of the lyrics here. But I still kinda like it? It's not my favorite metal section, lyrically or musically, but it's still enjoyable enough. So... a bit of a low point in comparison to some of their other songs, but neat enough that it wouldn't get stuck in the Wall or anything.

Electric Callboy - Neon:

Estimated Score: 64.19

I decided to just let Spotify continue on to this song considering the title & the heavy synth that opens the track. It's pretty good! It feels very 80's pop inspired; not their most original work, but a heavily synthesized 80's-style pop song about lost love? Yeah, definitely the type of thing I'm here for.

Electric Callboy - We Got the Moves:
https://open.spotify.com/track/0W4N0KzHKWQp2Wn1Mf6uMa?si=d4b825f3a9d442a0

Estimated Score: 60.00, surprisingly.

I'm oddly drawn towards this song, in spite of it not really being my style. The metal sections to this song are far more pronounced & I'm not really into partying or booze, so there's not a lot here for me in terms of the lyrics... and yet I do find this curiously appealing. I think this song would be best served by placing it into the Wall of exactly 60 points and trying to evaluate it in context of other songs I like. I *think* it'd probably wind up a bit above the Wall, likely in the 62 to 63 point range, but I'd like to listen to it on another day before I commit to moving it up.

Electric Callboy - Mindreader:
https://open.spotify.com/track/0qdzdBNLU6BAxTCt8FLptu?si=bf609a4eb2f7490c

Estimated Score: 59.17

Another surprisingly pretty good track. It's also one of their more metal offerings, but there are some catchy & lighter moments alongside a fairly dark breakdown:

You are the devil, bitch
Everybody knows that
When I'm done with you you'd rather be dead
Dead, so dead

This track pleases me; perhaps not as much as the last song, so I'd like to keep it a bit below the Wall to start, but I do generally like what they're doing on this track.

Last songs of the album tomorrow, hopefully.
