Animals In Denial, guided by the highly versatile Christian Imes, represent a remarkable venture into the realm of alternative music. 

Imes’ journey, from receiving his first guitar at 14 to then establishing his own band, shows a strong commitment to artistic innovation and creativity. As a self-taught guitarist, Imes has had continuous musical growth and expanded his skills to encompass synthesisers, drums, and bass guitar. His relentless pursuit of creating innovative sound has resulted in a very diverse and captivating repertoire. 

The new single, “Chariot Ride” is a mesmerizing exploration of introspection and inner peace. Rooted in lush melodies and evocative instrumentation, the song demonstrates Imes’ growth as a songwriter and musician.

Inspired by moments of self-reflection and resilience, “Chariot Ride” invites listeners to embark on a transcendent journey of self-discovery. 

Musically, “Chariot Ride” shows Imes’ eclectic sensibilities, and seamlessly brings together alternative rock elements and electronica elements, to create a captivating overall sound. 

With anticipation mounting for his forthcoming album “ Beyond The Horizon”, set to release in the spring of 2024, this new single release solidifies his position as a visionary force in the alternative music landscape. 

Christian, a devoted family man with Asperger’s, treasures his roles as a husband and father of two boys. Their shared passion for jam sessions infuses their days with joy, serving as a guiding light through life’s ups and downs. And its his unique Neuro-divergent perspective that celebrates diversity, empowering those who feel like outsiders to embrace their differences proudly.

A true aficionado of old-school Rock ‘n’ Roll, Christian holds a deep reverence for the 80s and 90s rock era. Influenced by legendary bands such as Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana, and Depeche Mode, he infuses his music with nostalgia while embracing futuristic sounds and AI technology to stay relevant in today’s music scene. Christian’s blend of past influences and modern innovation creates a captivating musical journey that resonates with audiences of all ages.

Working meticulously in his personal studio, Imes often with assistance from his wife Jeanine, imbues every aspect of his compositions with true artistic vision. This DIY ethos empowers Imes to create a diverse catalogue of music that is immersive and captivating. 

In 2006, Imes made a significant impact on the music scene with the release of numerous singles and four full-length albums across major streaming platforms. These releases garnered critical acclaim and highlighted Imes’ ability to challenge genre boundaries while maintaining a cohesive sound.
