Sheffield rockers Arctic Monkeys have announced that new single 'Crying Lightning' will be released on vinyl through Oxfam.

Limited edition pressings of the track - the first release from new album Humbug - will be available in the charity's 700 shops from 17 August.

Priced at £2.99, the package will also include a download code allowing access to a free mp3 version of the song.

The four-piece are urging shoppers to donate their unwanted albums and singles to shops when making their purchase to boost the international organisation's funds.

Arctic Monkeys' third album, Humbug, is out on 24 August.
