Chock-full of ridiculously catchy, spaced-out jazzy rock, dance-prog, and Bowie-love, Uneasy Truce at the Watering Hole is, as Local Vertical called it, "a freakout on a CD". Pop hooks and classical chops collide in songs like the dance-punk of "Weapon", the moody jazz of "Ghost Ship", and the epic rock of "The Proximity of Pipes". Recorded on vintage tape machines and consoles at indie touchstone John Vanderslice's legendary Tiny Telephone studios, this album sounds like nothing else out there... It could be pop-heads from the 80s making classic rock in the 60s, 70s acid casualties and glam mavens making tunes using modern beats, or a crazy old man in a shack writing brilliant songs to be played by a couple of virtuoso psychedelic musicians who have no idea whether it's day or night and care only about rocking your ass. The important thing is that you will love this music, and it will haunt you like a ghost... a ghost that owes you money for dinner.
What the critics have been saying about Uneasy Truce:
"4 stars" - AllMusic
"8.8/10" - Surviving The Golden Age
“8.2/10 -- Entertaining as hell... Full of surprises...a unique, if not eclectic collection of songs that are fun and full of energy and beg to be danced to” - Thrash Magazine
"An eclectic mix of rock, dance beats and fascinating lyrics mixed with a distinct Bowie-meets-Pavement sound...[Dubious Ranger] will surely make an impact not only on the band’s native Bay Area scene but nationally as well." - Today's Modern Pop
“Dubious Ranger hearken back to the days of Zappa... repeated listens will surely reward those that are skeptical of Dubious Ranger’s lofty ambitions... immensely entertaining lyrical output...a successful concept album” - Obscure Sound
"Impressive...sexy...[and] incredibly ballsy." -East Bay Express
