Post Animal is an American rock band that hails from Chicago, Illinois. Formed in 2014, the band initially gained recognition in the local music scene with their psychedelic blend of rock imbued with elements of prog and garage rock. It consists of an ensemble of multi-instrumentalists, including Dalton Allison (bass/vocals), Jake Hirshland (guitar/keyboard/vocals), Javi Reyes (guitar/vocals), Wesley Toledo (drums/vocals), and Matt Williams (guitar/vocals). Their energetic live performances and retro-infused aesthetic helped them build a dedicated fan base, a trend that continued as they spread their wings beyond their home city.

The band's discography includes highly praised projects such as "When I Think Of You In A Castle," their 2018 debut album, which showcased their knack for crafting expansive, melody-drenched tunes that felt both nostalgic and fresh. Following releases like "Forward Motion Godyssey" in 2020 have solidified their position within the modern rock spectrum, as they've continued to evolve their sound with ambitious songwriting and a willingness to experiment. Their versatility is evident in tracks ranging from the thunderous "Ralphie" to the introspective "Safe or Not (Extended Mix)," underscoring their rise as a dynamic force in the alternative rock scene. Fans and critics alike look forward to the band's innovative contributions to psychedelic rock, reflected in their subsequent releases like "Love Gibberish" and the raw energy of their live performance captured in "Post Animal on Audiotree Live."
