Among My Swan is the third album by the band Mazzy Star. Although Among My Swan did not contain any US Billboard Hot 100 hits like its predecessor, So Tonight That I Might See, this album did garner the band its highest-ranking single on the UK Singles Chart, when "Flowers In December" reached #40 in November 1996. The album's second single, "I've Been Let Down", did not chart in either the United States or the UK.
Among My Swan relied less on the echo effect that was nearly ubiquitous in all tracks on the previous two albums. Hope Sandoval's voice is paired with simple acoustic instrumentation that marks most of the tracks. The guitar and harmonica accompaniment on "I've Been Let Down" is a prime example of this. These tracks are not markedly different in sound or feel from the preceding two albums.
Among My Swan is widely considered to be Mazzy Star's final album; although the band has not officially broken up, they have released no new material since the release of "I've Been Let Down" as a single in 1996, and lead singer Hope Sandoval has gone on to form Hope Sandoval & The Warm Inventions, which released an album in 2001.

迷幻音乐在九十年代成为尚存后朋克的中坚力量.Mazzy Star便是其杰出代表之一. Mazzy Star更加喜欢阴柔凄美的迷幻味道.从他们的音乐中更容易发现像the Doors.the Velvet Underground的遗风.邋遢懒散的吉他悲痛哀怨的民谣曲风几乎弥漫了整个九十年代几乎成为此类音乐的一种标准.Mazzy Star事实上是吉他手David Roback主唱Hope Sandoval的私人乐队. David Roback在Opal乐队时听到了由Hope Sandoval演唱的一盒录音带[Going Home].Hope嗓音深深打动了他.在Opal乐队的最后一次巡演中.Hope成为了乐队的主唱.不久后.David Roback和Hope Sandoval组建了Mazzy Star.乐队组建初期音乐风格和路线即已经划定.所有的音乐理念的构建在第一张专辑中即都几乎全部完成.此后的两张专辑都是在此基础上再填加一些其它的音乐元素的再发展.但终究没有出离原来的路线,这不知是乐队的创造力不足还是风格的限制或者其它什么原因.其实这也是大多数非主流乐队的最终归宿.在人员组合结构所决定的才华一次性燃尽后.难以为继.最终以解散告终.
