Light Pupil Dilate was a progressive, noisy, post-hardcore band from Atlanta, Georgia that often goes by the acronym LPD. They were signed to the German based record label LifeForce Records.
They disbanded in 2010 and Eric Searle (guitars and vocals) and Mike Chvasta (bass and vocals) went on to form a new band with Sorry No Ferrari drummer Jonathan Balsamo. Their new trio is called Palaces and will be releasing their first LP, "Tarnish", on September 29, 2012 through Organism Records. Read more on Last.fm
LPD is great band who somehow found the intersection for Nomeansno, Neurosis, and effects-laden shoegaze, and backed it up with a lot of brains to match the power. Most of the album is very cohesive, despite the almost ridiculous amount to change-ups and time signatures, and stays catchy throughout. They have changed their lineup and name to Palaces, by the way. Look them up. They continue to challenge the listener in a great way.
