I'm sure I used their music, their vibe, Sandman's presence, to cultivate an identity (to an embarrassing degree) but, as is usually the case with art we connect with, it felt like something that had already been inside me waiting to be lured out and articulated by, you know, skilled professionals.

I love this band and at the time they encapsulated some 90's romanticization/commercialization of the 50's bohemian lifestyle and impetus.

Cool sampler!

Lilys, Morphine & The Nightblooms all definitely my favorites on there

First heard them on the Indiegestion sampler CD that came with my first ever issue of Alt Press, (#65 with MLWTTKK/Mazzy Star on the cover, ah, those days).

They were recommended to me by my 6th grade English teacher!
