New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Shore Fire Media) - Buzz is building behind Son Volt's stirring new album 'American Central Dust,' out July 7 on Rounder Records.

Spin magazine says Farrar is 'an eloquent, thought-provoking dude, whether describing a true-life nautical disaster ('Sultana'), lamenting industrial America's decline ('When the Wheels Don't Move') or pondering mortality via Keith Richards ('Cocaine and Ashes').'

Muzzle of Bees says the record counts among 'their best work to date.'
