"Exits" is the first single by British indie rock band Foals from their fifth studio album, Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost – Part 1. The song and music video were released on 21 January 2019 in the United Kingdom after its debut on DJ Annie Mac's BBC Radio 1.[2] This is the band's first single not to feature bassist Walter Gervers (after his initial departure from the group during 2018, before eventually rejoining in 2023).[3] A trance remix of the song by British electronic producer, George FitzGerald was released on 7 March 2019.[4]

Music video

The music video, directed by Albert Moya features French actress Christa Théret and Game of Thrones star Isaac H. Wright as students at a clandestine fencing academy in a random series of interconnected vignettes of a surrealist nature. The video was filmed in Budapest.[5]
