    Not a fan of the sound, it's unfortunate to see Sia's unique voice be misused on this album.

    Since my country, Spain, is in quarantine until the end of April, I have decide to listen to some of the albums I've always wanted to listen to but didn't have the enough time to.
    I only have to say that this "supergroup" is amazing. Since I've always admired Sia and Labrinth, the combination of their voices sounds like heaven to me.

    I only have to say that this "supergroup" is amazing. Since I've always admired Sia and Labrinth, the combination of their voices sounds like heaven to me. Even though the idea of making a full album is logic economicaly, it hasn't been as attractive as the idea of a droplett era. "LSD" by LSD is a cool album with a undeniable psychedelic, ecstatic, cheerful and futuristic sound starring three very talented musicians. But its only cool. It isn't very exciting. The 10-track album features an unnecessary "Genius" remix in the shape of an epilogue which sadly makes this project end with a bittersweet taste since Lil Wayne's rap may confuse the listeners. Another bad fact is that it is also very unfortunate to see Sia's unique voice be misused throughout the album.
    To sum up I must say that here are no very bad songs in the whole album, but mediocre ones. When you listen to the first half of the album you feel like discovering America; something new and fresh but, as you listen to the rest of it, you feel like listening to an autotuned robot played on a continuous loop, which I guess isn't bad at all. I would have, personally, preferred an extended play rather than a full album even though this has been a cute interesting experience.    … Expand

    This will be fast, the only virtue that this album has is that it lasts little, but they were 30 minutes under water, quite boring with very strange sounds, at times exaggerated and annoying or very "experimental". "Thunderclouds" is the only one that can be rescued from all this and if not "No New Friends".

I do not understand why they decided to add the remix with Lil Wayne is totally unnecessary, it seems an album of songs discarded by themselves and decided to record them to give them a chance. Pretty mediocre and bad.… Expand

    Como um álbum de pop alternativo, o chamado "Labrinth, Sia & Diplo Present... LSD" não atingiu minhas expectativas, como fã dedicado da cantora Sia. Em geral o álbum possui seus pontos altos, como as faixas "Thunderclouds", "Audio" e "It's Time". Sua sonoridade e visual lembram muito desenhos animados dos anos 90. Seus pontos fracos foram a pobreza nas melodias das demais faixas, algo queComo um álbum de pop alternativo, o chamado "Labrinth, Sia & Diplo Present...

    An attempt of making an experimental album, that turned out to be one overproduced and annoying body of work. Sia's vocals saved it, and 3 songs that are good. All of the members have talent, but they should go on their own ways. I went through it with high expectations, but nothing happened and nothing moved inside me.

    El álbum tiene buenas canciones como lo son Thunderclouds o No New Friends, pero no es un álbum espectacular. La voz de estos dos cantantes es de otro mundo pero cantando pop genérico no se puede apreciar realmente.
    Muy buenas letras en el álbum por cierto.

    sinceramente creo que fue mucho hype para un álbum de cual la mayoría de canciones ya fueron lanzadas. la combinación entre labrinth, sia y diplo resultó ser forzosamente buena. dentro del álbum realmente no hay una canción que destaque fuera de los singles, aún así muchas de las canciones fueron buenas, pero no fue lo suficiente para todo el hype hecho. mis canciones favoritas son geniussinceramente creo que fue mucho hype para un álbum de cual la mayoría de canciones ya fueron lanzadas. la combinación entre labrinth, sia y diplo resultó ser forzosamente buena. dentro del álbum realmente no hay una canción que destaque fuera de los singles, aún así muchas de las canciones fueron buenas, pero no fue lo suficiente para todo el hype hecho. mis canciones favoritas son genius y thunderclouds… Expand

    My favourites are Genius (Original version), Mountains and Its Time. Sia and Labrinth's vocals are impeccable, huge production, however, the album could be finished without the Genius Remix.

    Considering the combination of such talents, it's a wonder that LSD is so good and so fun. While it might be too relentless for some, it's an experience to embrace and enjoy.

    LSD sound like an algorithmic midden of pop music. ... More than anything, this album is both tired and wired, like drinking Red Bull after a fifth Red Bull.

    What’s remarkable is how smoothly they work together, and how much genuine pleasure the three seem to take in this collaboration.
