The Soft Pack new LP 'Strapped" out now!

I'm still catching up on cool new releases that have flown by me in recent months. Here's another one.

The Soft Pack from sunny CA has a new release out. It came out in September when I was sleeping, clearly. It's called 'Strapped' and it's full of catchy cool songs laced with 70s pop vibe and loads more.

The band is just finishing up a month-long tour across the East and West USA rock halls, winning fans with their echo-laden propulsive power rock. Their site describes how...
"The group also took their time while making Strapped, making it over the course of two years. This pace allowed them to integrate new ideas and approaches into their existing sound, not just outright cop them. The Soft Pack’s pop rock foundations are undeniably still present—nine of the songs don’t break three minutes and from the first seconds of glorious album opener 'Saratoga' it’s obvious they haven’t abandoned the fuzz."

Here's Tallboy - a poppy, hornsy drinking song (or fear of drinking song!)
