''Exile'' is the name of Aloud's third full-length studio album, after 2008's ''Fan The Fury'', and their first release since the 2009 live EP ''Live 2009''. It is the first studio album recorded by Aloud's principal members Henry Beguiristain and Jen de la Osa without Aloud's original rhythm section.

''Exile'' was recorded and produced by Daniel Nicholas Daskivich and released under the Lemon Merchant Records label. A large portion of the album was financed through ...
