Centro-Matic Triggers and Trash Heaps
Centro-matic Tr iggers and Trash Heaps Label: Misra Catalog #: MSR38 Street date: February 7, 2006 Format: CD List Price: $6.98 Box Lot Quantity: 25 Packaging: Jewel case File Under: Rock/Indie 1. Tr iggers and Trash Heaps 2. The Little Guitars 3. Take a Rake (demo) 4. Tr iggers and Trash Heaps (stairwell demo) "What makes (Will Johnson) such a phenomenal lyricist is that he opts for the simplest language when painting an abstract picture." -- Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie in the New Yo rk Times "It's unforgettable in a Neil Young or Jeff Tweedy kind of way… As multifarious as the indie rock canon it's practically everything: from the South, in the basement, smoking pot, on the porch, plugging in, plucking soft and clocking out. It's a hootenanny of sweetly weathered proportions, free-wheeling clap-alongs and perfectly boozy balladry - not to mention ass kicking pop songs about rotary wheels and shotgun shells. Love You Just the Same is what a trucker cap would sound like if it could sing. Oh, and play violin." -- Magnet "HOT LIST! Oct 2003 - Country twang with a pinch of emo, held together by Will Johnson's raspy, searching voice. It's hearty, stick-to-your-ribs fare that makes you proud to be an American." -- Rolling Stone "These resonant fables of half-loved underdogs, essentially preposterous scenarios reported with apocalyptic seriousness, call to mind the last two Flaming Lips discs... the band hugely rawks here in an unprecedented approximation of their live show, often summoning the moldy hearts of Mould and Hart. -

The 2007 Oxford Conference for the Book
Southern Register Winter 2k7 2/19/07 3:28 PM Page 1 the THE NEWSLETTER OF THE CENTER FOR THE STUDY OF SOUTHERN CULTURE •WINTER 2007 THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI 2007 Oxford Conference for the Book his year’s Oxford Conference for the Book will be a special one. The conference honors each year a Tprominent Southern writer, and Larry Brown will be the focus of attention when the 14th annual conference meets on March 22–24, 2007. Brown was one of the South’s, and nation’s, most acclaimed younger writers, when he died November 24, 2004. The conference will provide the first literary occasion to gather critics, scholars, musicians, teachers, friends, and family to consider and celebrate Brown’s achievements. Brown was an especially well known figure around Oxford. Having grown up in Lafayette County, he studied writing at the University of Mississippi, taught here briefly, and had been a frequent participant in Center work. Brown was a legendary figure—the Oxford firefighter who served the community from 1973 to 1990, when he retired to work full time on his writing. He studied with Mississippi writer Ellen Douglas, and his wide reading and relentless work on his writing contributed to his prolific success. He published his first book, Facing the Music: Short Stories, in 1988. He wrote five novels, a second short-story collection, and two books of nonfiction. His last novel, A Miracle of Catfish, will be published by Algonquin Books of Chapel Hill on March 20, just before the conference begins. Illustrating 2007 Oxford Conference for the Book materials is a Brown received the Mississippi Institute of Arts and Letters Larry Brown portrait made by Tom Rankin in 1996. -

Take a Rake About Centro-matic’s Fort Recovery by Patterson Hood of Drive-By Truckers: Centro-matic's music comes on like a sound from a distant dream, something new, yet unmistakably familiar. Clear images adding up to something a little vague, but in such a comforting way. Once as a child, I watched part one of some two-part children's adventure (NBC's Wonderful World of Disney circa 1972, no doubt) and that night dreamt the next week's conclusion verbatim. No one ever believed me and I still don't blame them, not sure I believe it myself, but I know it happened. That's what Centro-matic is like to me. Their music is somehow like something I heard in my head as a child, yet I know I didn't. I find myself singing along with their songs the first time I hear them. They're the best live band in America and know how to make great records. Bunches of them (they're prolific as hell) yet some how they keep getting better. -

PRESIDENT | Woody Guthrie Foundation FOUNDER & DIRECTOR | Woody Guthrie Archives (1992-2013) Nora Guthrie graduated from NYU Tisch School of the Arts in 1971. Following a successful career in modern dance Nora began working with her father’s materials in 1992. Based on her intimate connection to her father’s ideas and ideals, Nora brings a refreshing interpretation of his work and a new understanding of his legacy. Her first project, in 1992, was the publication of a lost songbook of Woody’s original lyrics and illustrations, Woody’s 20 Grow Big Songs. Nora co-produced the accompanying album with her brother Arlo Guthrie, which received a Grammy nomination in the Best Children’s Album category. In 1994, Nora co-founded the Woody Guthrie Archives with Harold Leventhal and archivist Jorge Arevalo. In addition to managing the Archives and preserving her father’s personal materials and original creative works, Ms. Guthrie develops and produces new projects which continue to expand Woody Guthrie's cultural legacy. In 1996, the Woody Guthrie Archives was open for free research to scholars and students, making Woody Guthrie’s personal & professional collection available for the first time to the public. In 1996, Ms. Guthrie co-produced the first ever Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum Tribute series honoring Woody Guthrie. Main events consisted of a scholarly symposium held at Case Western Reserve University and a tribute concert in Cleveland’s famed Severance Hall. -
Will Johnson + Anímic
articulos_287 26/7/10 22:05 Página 21 UN TEXANO EN LA FALDA DE MONTSERRAT WILL JOHNSON + ANÍMIC El festival popArb propuso al líder de Centro-Matic instalarse quince días en un pueblo a las afueras de Barcelona y trabajar con un grupo catalán como banda de apoyo. La conexión fue instantánea. Los repertorios y estilos de ambos fueron buscándose y rozándose día tras día. La magia no brotó en la noche del estreno, pero en el concierto final de la gira todos circulaban ya en la misma órbita y palparon esa trascendencia que va mucho más allá de la suma de los elementos. No era parte del plan, pero ya son grandes amigos. Por NANDO CRUZ “Hola, me llamo Guillermo”, anuncia en la con acongojante majestuosidad y nitidez, oscuridad un tipo de barba feliz.

The duo’s first collaboration “Bad Guy” is also the first track on Eminem’s new record MMLP2 which features both a co-write and chorus vocal from Jaffe.
