Description
The moment the needle drops onBite, ones conception of what an A Giant Dog record sounds like bends like space and time around a starship running at lightspeed.
The biggest point of departure is thatBiteis a concept album, concerning characters who find themselves moving in and out of a virtual reality called Avalonia. Youre thrown into it quickly, as a calm, robotic voice says, Welcome to Avalonia, happiness awaits inside over a crushing synth line that segues into an opulent string arrangement.
The songs onBiteare full of bombast, at turns calling to mind the spacefaring operatic rock ofElectric Light Orchestraand the high drama of anEnnio Morriconefilm score. The albums narrative sweep is epic in scope, its characters facing impossible odds and certain doom, existing as comfortably with the sci-fi grandiosity ofThin LizzysJailbreakas it does with the high fantasy ofDioandIron Maiden.
