As part of our "Butchers Vol. 1" series of reinterpretations of some of our favorite songs, Dubious Ranger is proud to present, "The Killing Moon", a collaboration between the band and superb San Francisco singer/songwriter Bhi Bhiman. Originally written by Echo & The Bunnymen and featured in numerous films including Donnie Darko and Grosse Pointe Blank, the piece is an ominous crooner soaked in soft fear and subtle beauty.

Hey kiddies, so if you didn't know, the members of Dubious Ranger are all sort of huge geeks and long-time diehard fans of Achewood, a little webcomic gem about a depressed cat programmer and his super-rich banana-hammock-wearing buddy, among other quite absurdly wonderful characters. This comic, probably the most brilliantly hilarious thing in modern existence, can be found at www.achewood.com, and it is wonderful. As a matter of fact, we like Achewood so much, we decided to write a song about it... And for the price of joining our fan club, you can have it for free, no strings attached.

Dubious Ranger had one simple goal in mind with this track: Imagine Andy Warhol and a bunch of other art-scene dudes all in high school, all attempting to make a rock band in their parent's garage, and all playing their instruments while somehow politely thrusting each of their pinkies in the air as hard as possible to indicate their artsy-fartsy-ness. Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.
