So Cow / Image Makers Split (2014)

So Cow is a solo project by Ireland's Brian Kelly. Image Makers are a Spanish outfit. This limited run split, which came about after the two bands played a show together in Madrid, features a choice cut from each artist. "Visa Waiver", with its crusty low end and stabs of feedback, is one of the more ragged tracks in So Cow's pop-heavy discography. Meanwhile, Image Makers' "Mediocridad" is a jangling, swooning pop tune cut with reverberating synths. The mood is drastically different on each side, but both songs are total earworms. (Pitchfork)
