History

On 3 May 2018, LSD released a single titled "Genius",[6] along with an animated music video.[7][8] The following day, Diplo revealed that LSD was formed when he was invited to write a song with Labrinth and Sia.[9] Diplo stated:

"Originally, I wasn't in [LSD] and then our publisher had the idea to throw me in there; those two artists, together, are two of the craziest, most creative people I ever met in my life. I think they have the most severe attention deficit disorder together, their ideas are so crazy, so I helped put their ideas together, taking the job of their producer."[10]

On 10 May, they debuted the song "Audio", as well as its music video.[2][11][12] On 6 August, Sia teased the release of a new track titled "Thunderclouds", which was released three days later, on 9 August.[13] LSD released the song "Mountains" on 1 November 2018.[14] Talking to Rolling Stone in November 2018, Sia revealed that the group would release an album.[15] The album, Labrinth, Sia & Diplo Present... LSD, was released on 12 April 2019 through Columbia Records.
