The band was formed in 1997 by singer Kumi (born April 11, 1976 in Chiba Prefecture) and guitarist Naoki Sato (born July 21, 1973 in Shizuoka Prefecture), while studying at Aoyama Gakuin University, Tokyo. They signed with label Victor in 1999.
Their first album, The Greatest Hits, sold over two million copies. Their second album Love Psychedelic Orchestra, released in January 2001, sold 690,000 copies.
They have released four albums since, the last one was Golden Grapefruit, in 2007, and compilation album THIS IS LOVE PSYCHEDELICO, in June 2008.
Style
Stylistically, Love Psychedelico is highly reminiscent of the British Invasion of the late 60s, both members having cited The Beatles and Led Zeppelin as influences, though the influence of American folk and blues are also present (Kumi having claimed Janis Joplin and Sheryl Crow, and Sato Bob Dylan, as influences). To pay tribute to their influences, Love Psychedelico sometimes borrow song titles from the bands that influence them.
Kumi's lyrics are a mix of English and Japanese. Kumi often attributes her skilfulness in the English language to spending much of her early childhood in San Francisco.

like a rolling stone
果てぬ夢の slave 君の free world
いい加減な song
永遠に rhythm & blues oh
曖昧な code 憂いは bright
don't be down just let it
go down
happy life hippie style
うつむく days 夢の free ride
強引に咲いた flower
不自然な smile
やがてくる good morning
明日への dive
don't be down just let it
go down
君の色めくような feeling
こらえてる breathing so long
君がその瞳で開いてく magic
everything gonna be fine
out dated she made it
who played it we dead end
look into the other side well
everything must go fine
maybe gonna be fine
ただ何となくただ何となく art
遥かなる big wave
見慣れない today
風の free jazz
君に描いた image
胸に抱いたまま die
Bringing away
あの日の sight
君の中で眠ってる feeling
こらえてる breathing so long

The song "Free World" by LOVE PSYCHEDELICO is a vivid and catchy piece that is rich with meaning and emotion. At its core, the song seems to be about the search for freedom and happiness amidst the struggles of life. Throughout the song, the lyrics depict a variety of images and experiences, from dreaming of a better future to feeling trapped and suffocated by society. The chorus of the song urges the listener to let go of their worries and embrace a sense of freedom and positivity, with lines like "don't be down just let it go down" and "everything gonna be fine."
At the same time, however, the song recognizes the challenges and obstacles that can stand in the way of this kind of liberation. The lyrics describe the pain of unrequited love, the feeling of being stuck in a dead-end job, and the constant pressure to conform to societal expectations. Even so, the song's overall message seems to be one of hope and resilience, encouraging listeners to keep pushing towards a brighter future and holding onto the magic that can be found in even the toughest moments.

何百回と聴いた曲だけど、ＭＶをフルで見たのは初めて。当時はＭＶは音楽番組で一瞬流れるのを見るしか無かった。
