Album Notes & Community Reviews

Texas-based indie rock quartet Centro-matic continued their incredibly prolific streak with the fuzz-laden 'Fort Recovery'. The remarkably warm, melancholic album is driven entirely by Will Johnson's gravelly vocal melodies and songwriting, successfully marrying lo-fi slacker rock aesthetics with classic Americana and slowcore dynamics.
