Album Notes
Building on the strength of a well-received series of EPs, the Austin, Texas, indie-rock act Voxtrot unveiled its self-titled debut in 2007. Fronted by plaintive-voiced singer Ramesh Srivastava, the ensemble often comes across as a fleet-footed, less-dour version of the National, with impressive Britpop-influenced arrangements gilded by strong rhythms and catchy melodies (see the urgent "Kid Gloves" and the energetic "Firecracker"). While comparisons to other post-punk-inspired bands (including Interpol and Bloc Party) are inevitable, the quintet manages to assert its own emotive aesthetic, particularly on "Brothers in Conflict," where Srivastava knowingly sings, "I have to lose my idols to find my voice."

Editorial Reviews
3 stars out of 5 -- [T]uneful stuff with a fluid, detailed guitar sound and daubs of Eighties Brit pop and Leonard Cohen.
Rolling Stone

Breathless romps 'Ghost' and 'Brother in Conflict' are the power-pop pace setters, both punctuated by a euphoric, serotonin-fueled extra gear that waits to kick in until the finish line is within sight.
Magnet

3.5 stars out of 5 -- The band maintain their dedication to literate lyrics and dainty pop songs that are well-suited for dancing and daydreaming...
Alternative Press

3 stars out of 5 -- [A]n emotionally experienced, lyrically visceral record....The themes of violent anger and mental struggle give his seeming feyness wolf-like teeth.
Uncut

3 stars out of 5 -- [With] surging choruses and exultant guitars on 'Ghost' and 'Blood Red Blood'....'Firecracker' is all the better for some unadulterated punk riffing.
