Voxtrot came back together for a reunion tour last year, and now they have dropped “Another Fire,” their first new single in 14 years. Stream it below.
“Another Fire” is the first preview of Voxtrot’s sessions in Lockhart, Texas, where all five original members — Ramesh Srivastava, Jason Chronis, Matt Simon, Mitch Calvert, and Jared Van Fleet — convened in early 2023 for a recording session. A peppy pop rock track, it features soaring vocals from Srivastava as he sings, “And no you never knew how human life could change you/ Into something else, just hungry for the kill/ You’re the one true hero/ Dancing in the beauty of another fire, another fire, another fire.”
Watch the accompanying video, directed by Srivastava and filmed in Lockhart, below.
Srivastava spoke about the impetus for their reunion last year. “I had a dream where we were onstage and it was really positive,” he said. “There was such a strong and palpable feeling of love in my heart that when I woke up, it was still with me. I switched on my phone and started looking at things tagged with ‘Voxtrot’ on social media — teenagers covering our songs, people with Voxtrot tattoos — and just went down this internet rabbit hole that made me realize how much love there still is for the band. For the first time since we broke up, it seemed very, very obvious that we should do this.”
Since reuniting, Voxtrot have shared a pair of archival EPs: Early Music and Cut from the Stone: Rarities & B-Sides. The latter collection includes the previously unreleased song “Kindergarten,” which the band broke down exclusively for Consequence.
