Fero­cious, explo­sive tunes, fuzzy dirty bass and the out-there ball of ener­gy that is the front-woman KT are the hall­marks of riv­et­ing Atlanta out­fit Upchuck. And new track Last Breath is out today. 

The Atlanta band – gui­tarists Mikey Durham and Hoff, bassist Ausar Ward, and drummer/vocalist Chris Sal­a­do, now signed to Domi­no, released album I’m Nice Now in autumn, before tour­ing the US UK, and Europe. Today the band returns with new sin­gle, Last Breath, which was writ­ten and record­ed dur­ing the I’m Nice Now ses­sions at Tornil­lo, Texas’ Son­ic Ranch Stu­dios with pro­duc­er Ty Segall.

If get­ting sweaty to blis­ter­ing punk is your thing, make sure you don’t miss their upcom­ing shows. Their Novem­ber appear­ance at Vil­lage Under­ground was a blast, com­plete with mosh­ing by track two. Upchuck will con­tin­ue to tour through­out the year; among shows they are appear­ing at Manchester’s Out­break Fes­ti­val and the more inti­mate venue Oslo in Lon­don. Tick­ets are avail­able here.
