'Teargas & Plateglass' To Be Used In 'New York'

Their music has been described as “mixed thick like a pool of blood, reflecting fear and starlight in your ears” by XLR8R magazine. With a resumé like that it's hard not to see why they might be chosen to provide music for the decidedly darker CSI: New York.

According to the band's alternative label, Waxploitation Records, artists Teargas & Plateglass (known as "the secret illbient collective) will provide the track “Borrow the Beloveds Eyes” for New York. The episode in question has not been specified at this stage.

The band themselves are largely unknown or a mystery at the very least in the public eye. "We tend to regret everything we say publicly," said a band spokesman. "We don't even really like to talk about music." The album has so far relied on word-of-mouth to precipitate public consciousness. A spokesman at Waxploitation Records noted that the band were wary of attention, and that they "have requested we allow them to remain that way."

Most recently, the band provided music for charity non-profit album Genocide in Sudan, also produced by Waxploitation. The CD, which in addition features artists including System of a Down and Yoko Ono, will generate profits to be entirely donated to the United Nations Refuge Agency and UNICEF.
