DAVID BORING is a post punk and noise outfit from Hong Kong recognized for their unfiltered sound and intense, emotionally draining live shows. Formed in 2013, they have become one of the key forces shaping the city’s independent music landscape.
NANCY NIGHTMARE marks the band’s first release after a long break and serves as the lead single from their upcoming album, LIMINAL BEINGS AND THEIR ECHOES. The track presents a surreal internal monologue steeped in body-horror imagery, tracing a psychological spiral where terror slowly mutates into euphoria as the narrator’s mind deteriorates.
Written from a claustrophobic first-person viewpoint, the song centers on a character who experiences a symbolic self-burial and a suffocating descent into inner corruption.
The single is accompanied by a music video made by BIO-TOILET RELEASING, a Hong Kong underground film collective known for its low-budget, B-movie aesthetic. The video, shot with a used consumer camcorder, draws on exploitation and grindhouse traditions while injecting grim moral tones, reminiscent of cult Hong Kong splatter classics like The Untold Story (1993) and Black Sun (1995). The music video, which stars the band members as the cast, tells a bizarrely comic, grisly tale that culminates in violence against an anonymous main character.
