Dr. Dog: "Stranger"

10:09 p.m. · March 10, 2010 · by Wilson McBee

Philadelphia scruffians Dr. Dog are planning to bring out another set of their nostalgic, funky sing-alongs in April of this year. "Stranger" is the first single off the record, entitled Shame, Shame, and it continues the evolution of Dog's sound away from lo-fi, fuzzy rawk toward more sophisticated retro pop. The song features some soulfully hoarse vocals and a synthy, bouncing accompaniment, coming off like a cross between Squeeze and the Band. [The Fader]
