Centro-matic/South San Gabriel Enters The Year-End List Game

It ain't Rolling Stone or Spin. Hell, it's not Bona Fide Darling or Subservient Experiment either. But, either way, sure, I'll mention it: The blog It's Hard To Find A Friend has named Centro-matic and South San Gabriel's split double-album Dual Hawks as its third favorite record of the year...

It ain't Rolling Stone or Spin. Hell, it's not Bona Fide Darling or Subservient Experiment either. But, either way, sure, I'll mention it: The blog It's Hard To Find A Friend has named Centro-matic and South San Gabriel's split double-album Dual Hawks as its third favorite record of the year. Granted, its named No. 3 in a three-way tie with two other records, so who knows how many bands are gonna be listed in the Nos. 1 and 2 holes. Two? Fourteen? 1,700?

Tough to say. But, either way: Welcome to the party, fellas! --Pete Freedman
