What’s so good?

Astral Bakers bare their canines with “A Dog in a Manger.”With their second album on the horizon and The Whole Story still echoing softly in the backyard of their teenage neighborhood, Astral Bakers graduate into the anxieties of college and young adulthood with “A Dog in a Manger”—a track that wrestles with frustration and self-aware lyricism.The song teeters on the edge of full disclosure, only to pull back again—an idea that not only reflects its namesake but also kept me wholly engaged from start to finish.The track might be intentionally open with its frustrations, but nothing is going to stop me (or you) from putting this one on repeat until the barking dog finally lets us in.
