thonbill Now this is music which should be given a GRAMMY award. Brilliant in every respect, all the Tear Garden albums are great as well as the LPD's. But this is very special. ENJOY

Dave I've been a fan since the 80's, and I'm so glad you guys are still bringing this art forth into a world that needs it now more than ever. The album is the perfect mix of new and familiar. Honestly, I'm having trouble choosing a favorite track. They're all great.

discoinfernal In this pathetic age of conforming to please algorithms and fascist goon squads, how wonderful it is that these two madman visionaries are still out here making noise on their own terms. You are both treasures, sirs. Stay alive. Favorite track: A Developing World.

about

The Tear Garden, the legendary experimental project of Edward Ka-Spel (The Legendary Pink Dots) and cEvin Key (Skinny Puppy), is set to release their highly anticipated new album, Astral Elevator. This record marks a significant return for the duo, delivering a soundscape that is both familiar and refreshingly new. As with their past work, the album is a journey through surreal, often haunting electronic textures and Ka-Spel's distinct, poetic lyricism and mysticism.

Produced entirely by The Tear Garden themselves, Astral Elevator is a testament to the enduring creative partnership between Ka-Spel and Key. The album also features contributions from a stellar lineup of guests, including the late Dwayne Goettel, who provides a poignant and powerful presence. The sound is further enriched by the talents of Randall Frazier and Dre Robinson, and the entire experience was brought to its final form by the expert hands of Greg Reely on mixing and mastering.

In addition to the album's release, fans can look forward to a full visual experience. The stunning artwork for Astral Elevator was created by Simon Paul, perfectly capturing the album's ethereal and otherworldly themes. Furthermore, videos directed by Cory Gorski will accompany the singles due out during the album cycle.

Astral Elevator marks not only a return for The Tear Garden, but also their first record for Toronto-based Artoffact Records, home to many of cEvin Key's other projects.
