So many bands this year are streaming or leaking their own albums, often before the release date. Is it an attempt to thwart illegit leaking or a jab at the record industry? Who knows. But New Young Pony Club have decided to follow in the footsteps of Prince, M.I.A., Spoon, and so many others by putting their entire newest album in their my$pace player and let the public sample the goods before purchase. Fantastic Playroom was released in the UK in July, so it was already out and about, but it won't be available to the rest of the globe until August 28th. For those who haven't heard it yet, the NYPC are hoping that one listen will nudge people off the fence. To listen to Fantastic Playroom, just head over to NYPC$pace and give a listen.
