Centro-matic may be the most dependable indie-rock act out there today. The only other band I can think of off the top of my head that has released such a strong string of records, dating back to the late 90s, is Spoon. I couldn’t put Centro-Matic’s albums in order of preference if you paid me, though if you want to pay me I’d be willing to give it a go…As previously reported, Will Johnson and the band will soon release Dual Hawks - a split LP with their own side project South San Gabriel on Misra Records. The double album will hit European shelves April 14th, with a June 3rd release date Stateside. They’ve recently updated their myspace page to allow you to stream 5 new tracks, which don’t disappoint in the least. Once you’ve checked them out, head over to SSG’s page to stream some of their new ones as well.

Gloating time: got to catch them debut both albums (SSG opening up for Centro-matic) in Dallas a couple weekends ago with front-row balcony seats. Show of the year so far... it was wonderful. Centro was awesome as always, but I was extra blown away by the SSG material. Good stuff all around.
