## Summary

Slowcore acts imy3, a Philadelphia-based duo, and towhead, a Bay Area trio, have announced a new untitled split EP, due out on 8 July via Cherub Dream. Both bands draw on 1990s slowcore sounds blended with the playful, home-recorded electronic textures common in DIY music, and the release marks a formal collaboration between two closely connected newcomers.

The pair share overlapping personnel and history: imy3's Finn Palamaro played drums on towhead's hollow earth EP last year, and the two groups toured the East Coast together in a DIY style. The split features three tracks from each act, and both have previewed a song ahead of the release — imy3's dazed, loopy acoustic number "Shark" and towhead's downbeat "Blessed Are The Foals", featuring murmured vocals and eerie violins.
