The newspaper is being distributed free in locations across the world Monday, and it features short stories, poetry and art. For those of you looking for a digital copy, the New Zealand music magazine Rip It Up has posted a PDF of it (the site currently seems to be overloaded with traffic, though).

As for the music, you can hear the album on Slate Monday (and it's also available for streaming from Rolling Stone). Fans have been able to download the album since February and hear the entire album via YouTube. It is available on CD and vinyl this week.

Then there's also what the band calls its “newspaper album”: two 10-inch vinyl records and a digital download, plus a newspaper (not The Universal Sigh) and “a full-color piece of oxo-degradeable plastic to hold it all together." That version, which is selling for $48 to $53 (for the MP3 and WAV versions, respectively), starts shipping May 9.
