    The Human Expression was an American garage and psychedelic rock band from Los Angeles that released three well-regarded singles, and made additional demo recordings between 1966 and 1967.Their second single is an ethereal psychedelic rock number called "Optical Sound", where the singer is collecting his thoughts after a drug experience. The title may refer to the synesthesia that is sometimes experienced by people on an LSD trip. This may be their best recording, and it is included on twice as many compilation albums as "Love at Psychedelic Velocity."

    Jim Foster: Rhythm guitar
    Tom Hamilton: Bass
    Armand Poulin: Drums

    "...The Human Expression became a six-man band, according to a July 28, 1967 contract with Accent Records. Mike Verlingieri, a singer and songwriter, was the new member and he also appears in the only group publicity photo (featured on the front cover of The Human Expression - Love At Psychedelic Velocity)...."
