In early 2007, the group released "Super Roots 9", the first addition to the "Super Roots" series since 1999 and their first major release since "Seadrum/House of Sun". It was recorded during a Christmas Eve 2004 concert, making it only the band's third official live release since 1998's "Super Seeeeee!!!!!!" video (discounting disc two of the "Vision Creation Newsun" boxset, which included a 35-minute excerpt of a live concert). "Super Roots 9" also saw the band move from Warner International to the smaller Japanese label Commmons for domestic releases and American label Thrill Jockey for overseas. Later, in April, the group (as V∞redoms) played three dates with Sonic Youth in Japan. The band also planned to attempt using newly developed contact microphones to record the sounds made by the human body while dancing.
