Entertainment Weekly
Some may liken Mazzy Star to aural Valium, but artificial melancholy was never this sweet, or this thrilling.

Pitchfork

A dream pop classic, a spare and gauzy outpouring of feeling that still ripples through modern music.

AllMusic

Grand as She Hangs Brightly was, So Tonight That I Might See remains the group's undisputed high point, mixing in plenty of variety among its tracks without losing sight of what made the group so special to begin with.

Rolling Stone

I remember people mentioning Mazzy Star a bunch to me before talking about good dream pop, prominent female vocalists and powerful, melancholic production and songwriting. But I still had yet to hear them, until @KawaiiBoyGirl kept telling me to listen to this and yeah. This is literally like so weird, so lethargic, yet so transcendental at the same time. This thing is like soooo psychedelic, the way it often mixes this more subdued dream pop and her very good but very lethargic vocal style ... read more

So Tonight That I Might See, é um álbum bom pro gênero, mas tá longe de ser o melhor - Todas as faixas são boas, quando você escuta a primeira faixa você fica encantado, esperando que o resto do álbum vai ser bom nesse nível, mas aí é que está: não vai.

O álbum é bem longo com faixas de 4-7 minutos, sendo muito arrastado , lendo e várias vezes tediante e chato, não conseguindo ... read more
