Mazzy Star share new song & announce new LP

Mazzy Star return with a full length new album titled Seasons of Your Day on September 24th. The news of the album shouldn't be too shocking to fans - back in 2011 Mazzy Star released two songs, "Common Burn" and "Lay Myself Down," (which both appear on the upcoming album) and last year they performed at a few festivals, including Coachella and Primavera Sound. On the other hand, it IS the band's first full length album since 1996, which almost rivaled My Bloody Valentine territory (though in Mazzy Star's defense, they never taunted fans like Kevin Shields).

Along with the album news, Mazzy Star also debuted a song from Seasons of Your Day - stream "California" below:

*The timing of the Mazzy Star news is odd because just yesterday J Mascis' cover of "Fade Into You" was featured on several music sites.  The cover is included on a bonus 7" that comes with the new limited edition Dinosaur Jr shoe.
