LSD and the Search for God

LSD And The Search For God are a seven-piece shoegaze/dream pop band from San Francisco, California that formed in 2005. After some extensive touring, they released a five-song self-titled EP in 2007, which quickly developed a reputation over the following years. It's dreamy atmosphere is the closest thing to euphoria that doesn't involve a pill or an orgasm. The tones and textures of the guitars ebb and flow like paint on a palate, and add a unique blend of colour to the male-female vocal harmonies that float through each of these songs. The obvious namedrop comparisons are there (see: My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, etc.), though LSD And The Search For God really managed to craft an EP that featured influence, but not derivation. Thus why it's held in such high regard, because it managed to define a genre that all too often falls into the death trap of carbon copy sound alikes.
