Upchuck – I'm Nice Now (Black Vinyl)

I’m Nice Now is the third studio album by Upchuck, released 3 October 2025 via Domino Records. It was produced and mixed by Ty Segall at Sonic Ranch Studio and features a raw, urgent punk aesthetic recorded live to tape. The album runs 13 tracks across roughly 30 minutes, delivering a mix of rage, resilience and incisive social critique.

Upchuck use I’m Nice Now as both a sonic blow and a statement. Tracks like “Tired” and “Forgotten Token” confront exhaustion, grief and racial erasure head-on, while other songs like “Un Momento” bring in rhythmic variation and bilingual vocals, pushing punk’s boundaries without sacrificing intensity.

Reviews

“Upchuck don’t just play songs: they spit venom, grind teeth and slam their fists against the rotting walls of America… In I’m Nice Now, the band sound like they’ve swallowed every injustice and vomited it back as pure punk fury.” — Kerrang!
