The Tear Garden is a psychedelic and experimental project formed in the mid-1980s by Edward Ka-Spel of The Legendary Pink Dots and cEvin Key of Skinny Puppy. Blending dreamy electronics with surreal lyrics and atmospheric soundscapes, the collaboration draws from the strengths of both artists' primary bands, creating a unique fusion of industrial, ambient, and psychedelic rock elements. Over the years, The Tear Garden has evolved into a broader collective, regularly featuring contributions from other members of Skinny Puppy and The Legendary Pink Dots.
Known for tracks like "Sheila Liked the Rodeo" and albums such as The Brown Acid Caveat, the group has earned a cult following for their immersive production and otherworldly vibe. Their discography spans several decades and includes both full albums and rarities compilations like Eye Spy, Vol. 2. While not a mainstream act, The Tear Garden remains a beloved and influential fixture in the experimental and underground music scenes.
