Interviews and Feature Articles
Real Audio interview from KCRW
Click on "In Studio" and check out the Marcy Playground show. A must-hear! Good
sound. Smashing "live" versions of Poppies with Dylan jammin' on the
bass, Sherry Fraser and the explanation behind it, One More Suicide,
Cloak of Elvenkind (my fave) with explanation, Sex & Candy with "rockin'
out at the end" (as John calls it), a cover of Neil Young's "The Needle
and the Damage Done", and Dog and His Master. Plus, of course, band
history and chatter with the interviewer.

front of the mirror?"

chinchilla if you're lucky!
Album Reviews
Addicted To Noise article from October 14, 1997
"Sex and Candy" is currently getting airplay at some 30 active rock and
modern rock stations across the country -- with more expected to add it
to their playlists.Though at times sad, with a definite Beatles-ish
psychedelic swirl, "Sex And Candy " draws you in with sultry lyrics and a
chillingly slow Nirvana-esque tempo..."

College reviewer who seems to dig the Marcy sound..
Sol Snowboarding Review
Not quite sure what the site is, but hey' it's a good review! "If
Nirvana had tried to do a Mazzy Star album it would have sounded exactly
like this." (Personally I don't get the Nirvana association, but
whatever).
