Pills For Tomorrow is a shoegaze and psychedelic band from Grenoble, France. Drawing mainly from the British scene of the late twentieth century, its members embrace a distinctive identity: lucid and sincere dreamer-musicians for whom music is not a pose, but an alternative to the pills of everyday life — a way of inhabiting the world differently.
Formed in 2023, the band features Nathalie Valion (vocals and lyrics), Laurent Gouviaux (guitar and composition), Fabrice Brenchenmacher (guitar and arrangements), Laurent Prost (bass), and Augustin Garnier (drums).
In 2024, the band released its first six-track EP, Castle Rock, including an adaptation of Shadowplay as a tribute to Joy Division.
Musically, the shoegaze and neo-psychedelic influences (My Bloody Valentine, Ride, Mogwai, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Black Angels) are clearly embraced. Intertwined guitars blend sharp riffs with lush textures, carried by a tight rhythm section, while ethereal vocals emerge delicately to evoke a time when tomorrow does not always come without pills.
First full-length album to released in 2026
