The first new material from Cardiacs for 18 years!!

Following the death of Tim Smith in 2021, it fell to his brother and bandmate, Jim Smith, to decide if work would continue on the album he was finally moving home to complete. Fortunately for Cardiacs fans, he decided it absolutely should.

‘LSD‘ contains 17 brand new tracks and is presented on coloured double vinyl and a seperate black double vinyl – both with gatefold sleeves and a slipcase, full lyric booklet anda Making of LSD Booklet featuring interviews with key personnel involved in the process.

Its double CD counterpart also comes in a slipcase with both booklets.
