Music reviews of Among My Swan
Music Review: Come back, Mazzy Star
Rating: 4 Stars
The first track, "Disappear" features a lovely pluked electric guitar that sounds more pacific than an acoustic somehow. The song is neither startling, nor mind-blowing, and is a perfect beginning to a peaceful, alluring, but not quite first rate album by the first, and still the best band to combine psychedelia with slowcore. "Flowers in December" is well written, overt beauty overlaid with meloncholy, and Hope Sandoval's voice is absolutely gourgeous. "Rhymes of an Hour" and "Happy" are also strong, though there are a few songs of lesser intensity such as "Still Cold" "Cry, Cry, Cry" and "Roseblood." "I've Been Let Down" reminds us that Mazzy Star has at least a toe in country music, and "Take Everything" benefits from the guitar work of the Jesus and Mary Chain, and an excellent Sandoval vocal, and is one of the strongest pieces here. The album plays very much of a piece, and this is mostly a strength, though partially as a consequence there is nothing here to rival the glories of "Five String Serenade" from So That Tonight I May See, although the closer, "Look On Down From the Bridge" Basically, I would listen to Sandoval sing the phone book, hell I'd listen to her sing Kelly's Blue Book, but this is a well written, accomplished album whose strengths only cause us to recall how much we miss the band.
