For those of you within the reach of NME Magazine’s circulation, the this week’s newest issue hit stands today with a surprise release from Meg and Jack.

“Rag And Bone” from the upcoming Icky Thump has been released on 7″ red vinyl picture disk (Um, that’s a small record for those who don’t remember record technology) and it’s included free with this week’s NME Mag from the UK. Well, they call it free, but you still have to purchase that trashy NME periodical to get your record.

If you aren’t able to get your hands on one of these limited editions, don’t fret too much. Many retail record shops will be stocking a similar version - a 7″ white vinyl with unique etching on the B side. If you happen to catch the NME Mag version, it comes in a special gatefold sleeve that can also accommodate the white one. Ben Beardsworth, the managing director of the not-so-indie-label that the White Stripes are currently on, was exuberent about the NME distribution, saying, “There’s something quite magical about getting such a strong track, on such a stunningly presented piece of vinyl, directly in to the hands of such a vast number of people.”
