As a regular reader of the DFA forums, I'm well aware of James Murphy's short fuse when his records get leaked. I'm pretty sure he typed one post with tears in his eyes just after Sound of Silver leaked. Anyway, a few days ago the new single, a cover of Alan Vega's Bye Bye Bayou, made its way to blogs and message boards. Murphy has apparently thrown in the towel and decided to give away 20,000 free downloads.
well, bye bye bayou totally leaked everywhere, which shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone, since anything that exists is essentially all over the internet in 5 minutes—but it wasn’t actually supposed to come out until november 7th (that indie store vinyl day), so we’ve asked and parlophone have given us 20,000 free downloads to give away to the first, well, 20,000 people. one per customer. or downloader. or avatar or whatever.
