A Giant Dog - Bite

Merge

“Beneath all of this nihilism is some real skilled songwriting that includes complex rhyme schemes, swaggering rhythms, and stunning harmonies.” – Pitchfork

“A Giant Dog’s greatest strength… remains their ability to tap into the enduring elements of rock’s true grit and create feelings that are appropriately cathartic, dangerous, and fun.” – AllMusic

“[Toy] is A Giant Dog at its best: technically interesting, emotionally resonant, and ultimately hopeful.” – PopMatters

“The greatest American rock and roll / punk band since I don’t know when.” – Britt Daniel (Spoon)

In contrast to what fans have grown to expect from this rough-and-rowdy crew, Bite is an intricately constructed concept album, a dense tale about its protagonist’s ultimately tragic days in a “virtual utopia” called Avalonia. New sounds and textures abound, including, most notably, sumptuous string arrangements. Fans eager to learn more about the narrative and its many themes – among them gender dysphoria and the inherent dangers of virtual reality – need not fear, because the band has completed a full-fledged screenplay to support it.
