Formed in Buenos Aires by Inés Adam and Martina Nintzel, Pacifica have been on a fast, furious rise since transforming their bedroom YouTube covers into a fully-fledged global phenomenon. Blending the gritty immediacy of early-2000s garage rock with the swagger of post-punk and the emotional punch of ‘90s alt, the duo have built a devoted following and a reputation for blistering live shows that channel friendship, chaos, and catharsis in equal measure.
Now, Pacifica return with their highly anticipated sophomore album In Your Face, out now via TAG / The Orchard. The record marks a new era for the Buenos Aires-born duo — one that captures their trademark mix of vulnerability and rebellion with more bite, confidence, and self-awareness than ever before.
“In Your Face is an introspective journey that brushes through themes of heartbreak, betrayal, lust, spite, immaturity, and regret — all with a pinch of humor and light-heartedness,” the band explains. “It’s about cause and consequence. Accepting fate and flaws, realizing some things really are the other person’s fault, falling in love and wanting to jump off a building for someone, learning to be patient, and just living through it — Tokyo streets, Maseratis, vibes.”
The album’s focus track, “Indie Boyz,” is a riff-heavy, tongue-in-cheek ode to late-night indie sleaze — all sweat, irony, and hazy dancefloor nostalgia. The band note that it’s “not to be taken too seriously — just a description of a week of going out almost every night. No poetry, just vibes.” “Indie Boyz” is also a nod to a trendy club in LA called Tenants of the Trees.
Other highlights include “Fixer Upper”, a biting reflection on toxic relationships and performative self-destruction, “Just No Fun,” an irresistible, chaotic anthem about knowing you’re self-sabotaging — and doing it anyway, and “What You Doing,” a sharp, emotional spiral set to driving guitars and sardonic wit.
Since releasing their debut LP Freak Scene in 2023 and its acoustic counterpart Freak Scene: NAK Sessions in 2024, Pacifica have played sold-out shows across North America, Europe, and South America, and shared stages with Franz Ferdinand, St. Vincent, Kim Gordon, and Måneskin. Their global following now exceeds 880K+ across platforms, with 25M+ streams and millions of viral moments on Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok.
The release of In Your Face kicks off a packed run of international shows. Pacifica will support Balu Brigada on their North American tour this October and November, before returning home for two headline shows in Argentina and two sold-out nights in Tokyo this December, followed by a UK/EU tour and global festival run in 2026.
