Since they changed their name to try and avoid any controversy, we figured to bring back a little of it with our news post title to declare that The Soft Pack are digitally re-releasing their 12″ LP from back when they were known as The Muslims.

After the name change and signing on to Kemado Records this past January, The Soft Pack are ready to release the appropriately-titled The Muslim EP digitally next week. The EP, which will include the ten tracks on their self-released, sold-out 12″ will come out on March 10 in digital formats only (and under the name of The Soft Pack). No word yet if they plan on re-pressing the vinyl and if they do, under which band name it will appear.

The Muslims EP track listing
01. Right and Wong
02. Beside Myself
03. Call It A Day
04. Extinction
05. Nightlife
06. Future Rock
07. On My Time
08. Religion
09. American
10. Bright Side

And as previously mentioned, The Soft Pack will be hitting the road in support of their new digital EP as part of an NME-sponsored tour with Friendly Fires and White Lies throughout March and April.
