Animals In Exile isn’t just a name—it’s a mantra for reinvention, resilience, and sonic exploration. It's fitting that the band is based in Denver, Colorado, a city enshrined amongst primal nature, carved into the wild of the encroaching mountains, just as the band itself cuts a passageway through neo-psychedelic rock, garage grit, indie edge, stoner fuzz, and dreamy shoegaze to reach a destination unmistakably its own. With poetic lyrics that delve into the absurd, the existential, the surreal, and the everyday, Animals In Exile craft music that is both intellectually rich and emotionally resonant.
The band's self-titled debut album, Animals In Exile, arrives August 8, 2025 via Needlepoint Records, preceded by the punchy single “Let’s Go!” dropping June 27. This new release leans deeper into overdriven tube amp growl, creating a fiery, tactile sound that sets it apart from Redding's previous recordings. It’s a record that doesn’t revisit psych rock—it repurposes it.
Described by 303 Magazine as a “...soundtrack for the soul - dark, inspirational, and beautifully cinematic.” The band has also earned praise from Queen City Sounds and Art, Janglepophub, Tonic Grain, and Austin Town Hall, and has been featured on a broad swath of playlists and webcasts. Animals In Exile has become a road trip essential, a thinking person’s psych band, and a spiritual successor to acts like Brian Jonestown Massacre, Velvet Underground, Dead Meadow, Flaming Lips, and Thee Oh Sees.
