SY played four new songs recently. I’m doing my best to grab the mp3s off Soulseek (which I had to download especially for this) and will be uploading them if and when I get them. In the mean time, make due with the news from their site:

Thurston, Kim and Steve made an impromptu appearance at the Flywheel in Easthampton, MA on July 18 performing 4 new songs Sonic Youth have been working on in rehearsals. The songs were ‘Helen Lundeberg’, ‘Or’,'Do You Believe in Rapture’ and “Pink Steam’. Also appearing that night were Afri Rampo and Lightning Bolt. Footage of the evening can be found here.
