According to a bulletin posted today on MySpace by Brendan Canning, a copy of his latest album Something for All of Us... has been leaked to the net. Now I know leaking an album is the cool new way of releasing something unofficially but this is a genuine unauthorized leakage. According to Brendan the version that's floating around is unmastered.

To combat this unauthorized album the co-founder of Broken Social Scene has devised a plan, "with the retail release being six weeks away, I've decided to correct the situation by releasing the album digitally myself, because I can." The CD will still be hitting local record shops and digital retailers on July 22nd but at the Arts and Crafts Gallery you can purchase and download a digital copy of the fully mastered album right now.

But if you don't have the cash take a listen to a fully mastered track right here:
