[Watch] Thurston Moore - "Benediction" Live on Letterman

Thurston Moore returned to the television screens of homes across the US last night when he stepped onto the stage in the David Letterman studio. He was there to perform his track "Benediction" off of his solo LP, Demolished Thoughts. A soft and gentle performance from the Sonic Youth man that you can now enjoy it at the top courtesy of The Audio Perv if you missed it last night, or if you just want to enjoy the magic again.

[Watch] Thurston Moore - "Blood Never Lies" x "Benediction" x "Circulation" (La Blogotheque's Take Away Show)

Check out Thurston Moore laying down some acoustic performances from his new album Demolished Thoughts. The tracks were recorded as part of La Blogotheque's Take Away Show's, which may ring a bell if you're a regular reader as we've seen some great ones in the past. A personal favourite was Local Natives walking the streets of Paris

This session was a little different though as the film crew went to the Sonic Youth man's New York apartment to record him performing three tracks titled, "Blood Never Lies", "Benediction" and "Circulation". The latter is performed in Thurston's kitchen and can be seen after the jump whereas the prior is recorded on a window sil looking out onto the streets below. An entertaining watch indeed.

[Listen] Thurston Moore - "Benediction" (Prod By Beck)

From Thurston Moore’s upcoming album once titled Benediction but now known as Demolished Thoughts, we have the track "Benediction" from the Beck-produced 4th solo album which drops on May 24th. As an avid listener of Sea Change (if you couldn't tell from my Twitter avatar), it's almost impossible not to tell that the creator of that album had his hands all over this one. 

Very much looking forward to spending time with this record once it's out, even if it will probably mellow me out more that I'd like.
