from the CD soundtrack to The Crow, Atlantic Records, 1994As popular as the shoegazer trend seems like it must have been, looking back, it barely made waves above the underground over here in the States upon its initial onslaught, garnering much more attention across the pond; thus, here in America there were only a small handful of bands carrying that banner, Los Angeles-based crew Medicine being one of the better acts. Their first album in ’92 was every bit as loud & dissonant as the majority of British shoegazers, but they continued to ease up on the noise-level seemingly with each successive release, eventually winding up closer to the dream-pop sound they perfected for this song. Released on the soundtrack to the movie The Crow (the one where Brandon Lee, Bruce Lee’s son, was accidentally shot and killed during the making of the film), the band were also featured briefly in the movie, in the scene where this song plays in the club---they are the band onstage.
