Mazzy Star: So Tonight That I Might See Vinyl LP
$27.95
<p><i>We all know that dream pop begins and ends with Mazzy Star.</i> Specifically the opening track on this album. "Fade Into You" set the template that so many could only hope to fill. That country tinged heroin trip, punctuated by <a href="https://www.turntablelab.com/search?type=product&q=Hope+Sandoval" target="_blank"><strong>Hope Sandoval's</strong></a> haunting vocals and that ever present tambourine, rising and falling on a woozy sea of reverb, may never be matched. Perhaps it leaves the album feeling a little unbalanced, as there is so much more to Mazzy Star. Sandoval and producer <a href="https://www.turntablelab.com/search?type=product&q=David+Roback" target="_blank"><strong>David Roback's</strong></a> material has much more depth and propensity for abrasiveness than "Fade Into You" may suggest. Just check out their <a href="https://www.turntablelab.com/search?type=product&q=MAZZY+STAR+She+Hangs+Brightly" target="_blank">debut</a> if you need further reference. The chunky, distorted blues of "Wasted" is a good place to look with this album. As is the title track, which slowly explodes into incoherence over its 7 minute plus running time. Don't be shy though, as Mazzy Star have much to offer you.</p> <ul> <li>black vinyl pressing</li> <li>printed insert</li> <li>original release year: 1993</li> <li>music label: Capitol 2017</li> </ul> <h6>reviewed by Hank Ohs 01/2015</h6>
