My Pal/Task Force is Violent Soho's second EP, released in 2009 on the Ecstatic Peace! label. The first track is a cover of Melbourne based band God's 1988 single My Pal. Darren Levin of Mess+Noise says that "the band stay remarkably true to the song’s acne-riddled genesis/genius." The second track is Violent Soho's cover of the 1978 song, Task Force, from Brisbane's Razar, which Levin described as "irreverent and off-the-cuff... like Rancid covering the Ramones."[1]
