The Dawds - So Many Ways Demo + Live at KXLU
This 2007 release of So Many Ways made it through the hands of about twenty people in the neighborhood of East Hollywood. Here we have an all star line-up of James hazley on Bass, Max Gomberg on vocals, Ritch Bitch on Drums, Quinn Brayton on Synth and Mark Mastopietro on Electric guitar. The music has kind of a dirt like Roxy Music feel and you can still get some post Centimeters flavors from Max Gombergs songwriting and vocals. A must for anyone that enjoys the rest of the albums on Bernards. Also included on here are 5 songs performed on KXLU the same year..

Trak 4 - Looks Like Saturdays Are Gone
CentImeters No. 4
The last Centimeters album Number 4 was only sold on their last american tour in 2003 and was never released on an official label till Bernards has so generously picked it up this year in 2016. Dave Burk takes over Ray Days position on guitar and Creekbird switches to keyboards. This album sounds different than the other 3 and so you'll have to figure out what that means. Fun for the whole family.
TRK - 5 - Triangle Consciousness

Ray Day - Stars in the Desert sky
Ray was the guitarist for the Centimeters from the beginning of the band formation to 2002. David J. of Bauhaus stated he was the west coast version of Sterling Morrison. What most people didn't know was that he was an amazing songwriter in his own right. Here we have a collection of Ray Days finest work. A very sublime story weaves through his humor and blues based pop hymnes. Such lyrics as "Isn't it sad - but arent you glad - that theres nothing going on" gives us a glimpse of the anti celebration that just kind of hangs there with the fly on the wall. In December of 2015 Ray Day passed away from complications of alcahol. He was 44 years old. These songs are a testament to his sincerity. humor and free and wreckless spirit that endured without compromise until his death.
