Hard to tell which is more awesome—the fact that The Soft Pack have released a new jam, or that said jam is six minutes long, slower than usual and presumably about a sinking ship (or other things that sink in general). The dudes are about to embark on a month-long, co-headlining journey with Kurt Vile across the US starting in October. Since they're all big Kurt Vile fans, they sought to celebrate in the form of a limited edition Mexican Summer 7" that you can only purchase at any of those tour dates (listed after the jump). Only 500 copies are available, but you can also download "Gagdad" below to tide you over.
