New York loop-scientists Battles already gave us a sneak preview of new material in a mini-documentary, and today, the generosity continues. The band is streaming performances of four new songs from their upcoming third LP La Di Da Di on their website. But act fast, because the stream will end Wednesday morning.

The new tracks see the band continuing in their tradition of intricate sonic layering and hard-hitting, machine-like drum work. Head over to BTTLS.com to watch the trio perform “The Yabba,” “Summer Simmer,” Tyne Wear,” and “Dot Com.”

La Di Da Di is out September 18 on Warp.
