LORDS OF ACID – “DREAM BOY” | NEW VIDEO FOR RECENT SINGLE BY PIONEERING ELECTRONIC DANCE ACT + PART 2 OF 2026 US TOUR ANNOUNCED
METROPOLIS RECORDS
The pioneering electronic dance act Lords of Acid have made a video available today (2nd July) for their song ‘Dream Boy’, which was released as a single in May. Directed by Vicente Cordero, who has also made videos for acts such as Ministry, Kat Von D, Black Veil Brides and 3TEETH.
“The video was shot in Las Vegas with a cool mix of fans, friends and family, which gave the whole thing a really loose, fun and slightly chaotic energy,” explains band co-founder Praga Khan. “We filmed it in crisp 4K, but also used an old camcorder from the ’90s to give parts of it a grainy, timeless, almost otherworldly feel.”
Previously described by the group as “a dark trip through the streets of Necropolis, where addiction feels like salvation and nightmares wear a beautiful disguise,” the song is purposefully built as a dialogue between desperation and seduction.
Khan points out that “the visuals play into the same push and pull as the song itself. There’s a broken soul caught in the middle of the chaos, while our Acid Queen (vocalist Carla Harvey) comes through like a dangerous angel floating in the smoke. The mix of modern and old-school footage makes the video feel a bit like a dream, a memory and a hallucination all at once.”
The original single release of ‘Dream Boy’ had been midway through a 30-date Cheeky Freaky US tour by Lords of Acid. The video comes following the recent announcement of 15 more shows in October
