Finding that the new #TheTearGarden album _Astral Elevator_, along with the rest of their catalog, is making for _really_ good soundtrack for…everything right now. Dark, creepy, electronic (and occasionally very danceable) psychedelia.

#TearGarden has come out with a new album. They’re the joining of #cEvinKey of legendary #industrial band #SkinnyPuppy, and #EdwardKaSpel of psychedelic rock band #TheLegendaryPinkDots. Haven’t yet had a chance to listen to this, but their ‘To Be an Angel Blind, Crippled Soul Divide’ is one of my all time favourites. A stunning combination of instrumentation, electronics, and poetry. Be sure to listen to it.
And also give this a go (let me know what you think of both):

The Tear Garden - "A Return"
An exciting Bandcamp Friday! Edward Ka-Spel’s new solo album “A Monument to Wasted Tears” is released today while pre-orders are also now underway for the latest Tear Garden album, “Astral Elevator“. It’s been a challenging Summer. Daily life has been a little frenetic as boxes are steadily ticked in preparation for the forthcoming North American … Continue reading Bandcamp Friday August 2025 →
There is a *Massive* amount of music by #LegendaryPinkDots / #EdwardKaSpel / #TheTearGarden at #PayWhatYouWant prices on #bandcamp - if you’re not familiar with their music, I recommend the #LPD compilations:
* The Stone Age (1980-1989)
* A Ticking Clock (1990-1999)
* A String of Zeroes (2000-2010)
All 3 Tear Garden anthologies, but also To Be An Angel Blind.
Also live albums: Terminal Kaleidoscope, Fillmore 1998 (I was there), and The French Collection.
Now the tour is finished we do have odd copies of titles that we hadn't seen for a while together with new tote bags and the remains of the 45th Anniversary T-shirt ( it will be re-printed if the U.S. Tour works out).
Finally a new edition of ' Ghost Logik & Spectrescapes 1' ( both remastered) is being released as a double CD-R and it's a small thing of beauty.
Do also follow the Dots and Edward on Bluesky: @legendarypinkdots.bsky.social @qaspel.bsky.social
In the continuing mission to gather all solo titles in one place, a few more are added today.
All are remastered (some drastically) while "Textures of Illumina" is also being made available as a limited CDR set as this particular title underwent a massive sonic rebirth.
The same applies to 'The Scriptures of Illumina" as the new master seemed worthy of a physical release.
"The Perfect Patch" is being made available on CD-R for the first time.
