Tokyo Police Club's Elephant Shell joins the ranks of highly anticipated release dates marred by early leaks, so Saddle Creek Records decided to up the ante. The Canadian four-piece officially releases its debut full-length on April 22, but you can preorder it directly from the source for instant access to the MP3s. In addition, Saddle Creek will mail you the limited-edition version of the album, including an additional disc of remixes from indie acts such as the Good Life and Field Music. Or, if you just feel like window shopping, click the "Downloads" tab on the band's label page for "In a Cave" and "Juno," on the house.
