Inspiral Carpets are releasing a 7" vinyl single "Fix Your Smile" backed with "Save Me" for Record Store Day. The songs were recorded near the end of last year in Manchester and will be available as a limited edition release via OGenesis* on April 20th. It's unclear at this time whether any vinyl copies will be available for RSD in North America - so far the official release lists have not been published, but are expected shortly. A digital (download) release is scheduled for May 4th.
