Nineteen years is a long time to go without releasing an album. Voxtrot will close that gap this February with Dreamers In Exile, their first proper LP of new material since their 2007 self-titled (though they've shared some new singles and old rarities in the interim). Dreamers In Exile also marks the Austin indie-pop band's first album since they broke up in 2010 and went on a reunion tour in 2012. Some of their recent tracks are on the LP, and their latest single "Fighting Back" is out today.

Voxtrot wrote and recorded Dreamers In Exile in Lockhart, Texas, at bassist Jason Chronis’ Haunted Air Studio, and the album was mixed by Dean Reid (Lana Del Rey, James Blake). Voxtrot frontman Ramesh Srivastava explains in a press release that Dreamers In Exile came about after he relocated to Los Angeles in 2015 and started working for a courier company. The change-up in his schedule — and the fact that his roommates were musicians, too — gave Srivastava a renewed sense of creativity and freedom.

The synth-heavy "Fighting Back," Srivastava adds, "echoes the catchy propulsiveness of early Voxtrot." The accompanying music video was directed and filmed by the band's longtime collaborator Annie Gunn.
