 Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })In toxicology, the median lethal dose, LD₅₀, LC₅₀ or L C t₅₀ is a measure of the lethal dose of a toxin, radiation, or pathogen. The value of LD₅₀ for a substance is the dose required to kill half the members of a tested population after a specified test duration.Oh, and L.D. 50 is also the name of a Progressive Metal album by Mudvayne.

 Concept Album: The album's title derives from the technical term 'Median lethal dose', abbreviated LD 50, used by toxicologists to refer to the dose required to kill half (50 percent of) the members of a tested population. All of the tracks are conceptually tied to the idea of human evolution. Through Sampling of the voice of philosopher Terence Mckenna, who discusses his idea that human beings have a symbiotic relationship to psychedelic mushrooms, and that ingesting such was the catalyst of apes to evolve into humans. The themes of the individual songs, including drug addiction ("Internal Primates Forever", "Pharmaecopia"), murder ("Dig", "Nothing to Gein" and "Under My Skin") and esoteric development ("[k]now F[orever]") combine to create an overall connecting lyrical theme of human evolution, development and destruction, which continues on into the lyrics of The End Of All Things To Come,

 Arc Number: During the songwriting process, the band members paired riffs with lyrics based on what Matthew Mcdonough referred to as "number symbolism". According to Mcdonough, while he and Chad Gray wrote the lyrics to "Nothing to Gein", Greg Tribbett performed a riff which alternated in bars of 4 and 5. Because the number 9 is a lunar number, Mcdonough felt that the riff would fit the song's lyrics, which referred to serial killer and grave robber Ed Gein, whose actions Mcdonough associated with nighttime activity.
