The Soft Pack play 10 shows in 1 day, tour the UK
The Soft Pack recently played 10 shows in one day to celebrate the release of their unfeasibly fine debut LP.  Crazy?  Yes!  Dumb?  Yes!  Entertaining?  Most probably! The camera gonks at Videothing documented the whole thing, proving that a) playing a show at a record store at 10.37 in the morning probably isn’t the best idea you’ve ever had, even...
The Soft Pack to release Muslims EP
The latest signees to Brooklyn–based label Kemado Records, The Soft Pack will release a ten song digital EP on March 10th. The momentum continues to build behind this band as they prepare to set off a huge NME-sponsored tour with Friendly Fires and White Lies.

Top 100 records of 2009: 20-1
Street Chant So here is our top 20 records of 2009 list. I use the word ‘genius’ a lot on this page, but I’m not going to apologise for it.

All the shit people say, people were being dicks, saying all this shit about jihad. We all felt...

The Soft Pack - The Soft Pack
Along with a number of other bloggers, I did my fair share of hyping up The Soft Pack last year. And their debut album justifies all that enthustiastic frothing - because it is fucking ace. It’s the best debut album since Is This It changed the rock n roll topography 10 years ago.   The Strokes’ debut is an apt reference point, as The Soft Pack share some sensibilities...
Thursday's Track Reviews
Obits - "Pine On"; Obits may be the new kid in the Sub Pop stable but they are certainly not new kids. The band consists of four members, all of whom have extensive histories in the music world. Now that they are together though they are bringing everything they do well together and amking some boot stomping, straight up rock classics. This tune should have people hanging from rafters...
Photo Recap : Friendly Fires + White Lies + The Soft Pack
Friendly Fires, White Lies and The Soft Pack packed out Radio Radio and likely gave Indianapolis their only chance to see some or all of these bands in a club setting. Next time around, they’ll probably all be playing much larger venues at a much higher price. You can tell the plans surrounding these bands are already focused on that likelihood.
