LCD Soundsystem are giving their new single 'Bye Bye Bayou' away for free on their website.

A cover of the Alan Vega track of the same name, the first 20,000 people to register their details on the LCD Soundsystem website can grab the download for free.

A statement on the website reads:

“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.”
