Live Review: Mazzy Star, Gareth Liddiard
"It was ironic, we suppose, that a band famous for being listened to in the dark played in the dark to us."

Album Review: Mazzy Star - Seasons Of Your Day
It’s a largely self-produced effort with some guest spots and it’s sometimes uplifting (In The Kingdom), often chilling (California), but always assured, as the duo always were, really.
