Listen: Blur – Under The Westway & The Puritan

Listen — By Andrew Evans on 02/07/12

Today, Blur performed two new tracks by the way of a live stream. Let’s say that again: today, Blur performed TWO NEW TRACKS.

If you missed that however, we have both tracks for you, in their entirety below.

First of all, anyone expecting another Song 2 of Beetlebum will go away dissapointed. ‘Under The Westway’ is a forelorn piano ballad with Damon Albarn’s croon cutting through some bleak yet tender sounds.

‘The Puritan’ is a little more upbeat and features an unrelenting synth motif.

Both songs will be available to download and a limited edition double-A 7-inch single will be released by Parlophone on 6th August.
