The title refers to the LD50 or median lethal dose, a toxicology term meaning the dose amount of a toxic substance required to kill 50% of a tested population.
L.D. 50 is considered a concept album dealing with the pushing of boundaries and subsequent evolution.
The first single released from the album, "Dig", won the MTV2 Award in 2001.
The spoken words in Monolith are from Terence McKenna, a famous hallucinogens researcher, explaining his theory of how apes evolved to humans by consuming hallucinogenic mushrooms.
Also in Monolith is a sample taken from the movie Total Recall. The words "Open your mind," can be heard.
The album art features the Sephirot of Hermetic mysticism as well as photographs of a naked baby and chemistry models. The chemical models are representations of the major active ingredients found in the psychedelic drugs LSD and DMT.
