The Brown Acid Caveat

The Tear Garden

2017
Sub-Conscious Communications

Thirty years after their decision to start a new duo and see what happened, Edward Ka-Spel and cEvin Key continued on their particular path as the Tear Garden with a new release. Often having an elegantly danceable feeling in line with the Tear Garden’s 21st century releases, The Brown Acid Caveat sets that musical element against Ka-Spel’s always compelling vocals, sometimes here at their warmest and most yearning. But there’s plenty of dark shadows abounding still, as can be heard on the slow burn of “Amy’s Personality,” “Seven Veils” and “Sinister Science” among others.
