SummersRadio™ Presents... STARTLEFEST 2011 Halloween Spectacular! Mazzy Star - 'Into Dust' Darkness falls. And so it begins - our second annual STARTLEFEST - 2011 Edition! This is our tip of the hat to Halloween where we feature songs beyond the typical 'Thriller's and 'Ghostbusters' you'll being hearing everywhere else.
We begin by following Mazzy Star's brand new 'Common Burn' single (posted at the common burning time of 4:20 no less!) with another Mazzy Star song that was never released as a single - but it's managed to chart several times in recent years nonetheless.
'Into Dust' is the ninth track on Mazzy Star's beautiful 1993 album 'So Tonight That I Might See'. It first charted in the U.K. in 2009 after being used in a Virgin Mobile commercial - and then it charted again this year after being used in commercials for the 'Gears Of War 3' videogame.
As it was never a proper single there's no official video for the song, but as is common with great songs, a number of fans have made their own. I like this one in particular as it suits the acoustic sparseness of the song - featuring some great photographs from a cemetery. Truth be told, the odds are pretty good that we'll all end up buried underground or set on fire at some point - reducing us all to dust in the end. That's a bit scary isn't it? Behold the frightening stillness of Mazzy Star's 'Into Dust'... Enjoy!
