Biography

Formed in 1994 in Salvador, Bahia, the band Lisergia established itself as one of the most expressive names in the region's underground rock scene during the 1990s. With a heavy and aggressive sound, the band mixed influences from groups like Dead Kennedys and Mr. Bungle with elements of Brazilian music, creating an anarchic, experimental, and psychedelic sound.

Lisergia participated in important compilations of Bahian rock, such as "Um da Bahia" and "Três da Bahia," and performed at various festivals of the era, including Skoll Rock and Garage Rock. The band also played shows in other cities in Bahia and in states such as Brasília, Recife, and Aracaju. Their music was frequently reviewed in fanzines and specialized magazines, in addition to having appeared on MTV Brasil programs.

With lyrics addressing themes such as the human condition and social critique, Lisergia left a legacy of anthems for a generation from Salvador. After a period of inactivity, the band returned to the stage with its original lineup, except for the drums, promising new compositions alongside established hits, while maintaining the experimental and defiant spirit that marked its trajectory.
