Lords Of Acid & Princess Superstar Deliver 'Karaoke Superstar'

Official Announcement | Published: Apr 04, 2026 12:52 PM EDT

() The pioneering electronic dance act Lords Of Acid are back with their first new music in 8 years. 'Karaoke Superstar' sees them in full theatrical mode with what is a hyper-sexual, tongue-in-cheek, neon-drenched industrial, metal, acid dance anthem inspired by Japanese game show chaos, underground fetish culture and the absurdity of pop stardom.

Featuring a guest vocal by hit-making US vocalist and DJ Princess Superstar, the track fuses aggressive EBM-style sequencing with playful call-and-response hooks, mixing dark club energy with ironic theatrical excess.

Part satire, part dancefloor weapon, it is intentionally over-the-top via a unique collision of cultures (European industrial roots, Japanese pop references, metal drums and guitars) and production aesthetics that are all wrapped up with the group's unmistakable provocative edge.

'Karaoke Superstar' is the first in a series of singles to be released ahead of a long-awaited seventh Lords Of Acid album in late 2026. Further notable guest vocalists will appear, although the majority of songs feature the powerhouse voice of the reigning 'Acid Queen', Carla Harvey. Also renowned for her commanding stage presence, the distinctive US singer joined the group in early 2025. She was previously in the metal band Butcher Babies.
