Indie singer-songwriter Jenny Lewis has a new band, Nice as Fuck, and they just unexpectedly released their first album. Lewis, who is the ex-frontwoman for Rilo Kiley, joined forces with Erika Forster of Au Revoir Simone, and Tennessee Thomas of the Like earlier this year at a Bernie Sanders benefit, making their suprise debut. Now, the trio have pulled off a similar feat in dropping their first album without much warning:

The self-titled album has nine tracks, all with a punk feel and a strong bassline. The last song is the brief “NAF Theme,” which consists of all three women repeatedly shouting “We’re nice/ as fuck/ Wish you/ good luck.” Much like the album as a whole, it’s peppy, edgy, and a lot of fun to listen to.
