Mazzy Star never officially broke up, but the duo went on hiatus in 2000. Sandoval occasionally makes guest appearances on other albums (such as for the Chemical Brothers and Music/TheJesusAndMaryChain) and works (very slowly) with the band Hope Sandoval and the Warm Inventions (which included Colm Ó Cíosóig of Music/MyBloodyValentine during the latter's hiatus). Roback moved to Norway and remained really quiet, surfacing for a small acting part in the movie ''Clean''. In 2009, Sandoval [[http://www.rollingstone.com/rockdaily/index.php/2009/07/06/mazzy-star-crooner-readies-return-with-hope-sandoval-and-the-warm-inventions/ confirmed that Mazzy Star were still together]], and that they were just competing against Music/MyBloodyValentine in the "world's laziest band" contest. In October 2011, the band's website announced that they were recording a 4th studio album; the album, ''Seasons of Your Day'', was released in September 2013. The band subsequently returned to their hiatus, with Sandoval continuing her work with The Warm Inventions and making guest appearances on other albums.

The band released three albums in TheNineties full of slightly melancholic but somehow still [[SweetDreamsFuel nice-sounding]], folky DreamPop with occasional influences from PsychedelicRock (especially Music/TheDoors) and {{Shoegazing}}. The most successful of these was ''So Tonight That I Might See'', by virtue of having their most commercially successful song, "Fade Into You", on it.

* OneHitWonder: "Fade Into You" was their only big hit.



* SongAssociation: Many people most likely stumbled upon their work via the ''{{WesternAnimation/Rick and Morty}}'' episode "Rick Potion #9", where "Look On Down From The Bridge" plays over [[spoiler: a scene where Rick and Morty bury their dead alternate selves, and assimilate into their place]]. It's a TearJerker scene in visuals alone, but the audio really hammers it home.
