Lords Of Acid, who now feature vocalist Carla Harvey (The Violent Hour, ex-Butcher Babies) amongst their lineup, have released a new song titled “Dream Boy.” According to the band, the single takes fans on “a dark trip through the streets of Necropolis, where addiction feels like salvation and nightmares wear a beautiful disguise.” The group also added:

“It’s about understanding the pain, loneliness and emptiness that drive people toward it in the first place. We wanted the verses to feel raw and claustrophobic, almost like a panic attack, while the reggae-inspired chorus drifts like a hallucination you never want to wake up from. The line ‘Dream boy, keep on floating in the sun’ sounds warm and beautiful at first, until you realize it’s about somebody slowly disappearing in plain sight. It is one of the darkest songs we have ever written, but underneath the shadows there’s still a message of human connection, desire and the search for a real high that doesn’t destroy you.”
