Music Existence Because of Music, We Exist
Chicago, IL natives Post Animal will release their sophomore record Forward Motion Godyssey on Valentine’s Day, and today they share another bop off the forthcoming album. Following the previously released “Safe or Not (Extended Mix),” and “Schedule,” “Fitness” is about persistence in the face of loss.
“Everyone experiences loss,” the band explains. “Fitness is partially an examination of our response to loss. It explores the efforts we make to find peace, and how in some ways ‘effort’ is one definition of a good life. We hope you enjoy our futurist psycho-ballad.”
Written in eight days and co-produced by the band’s Dalton Allison and collaborator Adam Thein, Forward Motion Godyssey finds Post Animal endlessly shapeshifting as they explore new sonic touchstones and expand on their psych-rock origins.
