Apologies to those of you that have purchased any of the "Conquest" seven inches in the USA as they had incorrect stamp stickers placed on them by the factory. As you can imagine, the holidays prevented us from finding this out right away and have also provided us with the challenge of getting it corrected in a timely fashion as everyone was away on vacation until recently. Existing stock will now feature the correct stickers and should be ready to ship by early next week. For those of you who already possess your copies, a "Conquest" stamp sticker can be mailed to you if you send your full mailing information and which singles you purchased to whitestripesvinyl@gmail.com. Thanks so much for your understanding, patience and continued support. Happy New Year!

The White Stripes new single, "Conquest", will be released in the UK as a set of three separate colored vinyl 7"s on December 31st. Each 7" includes exclusive B-sides that Jack and Meg recorded recently with Beck, and, inspired by the new "Conquest" bullfight video, each also includes a Mondo Toro trading card featuring the near-mythical matadors El Sloth, El Blanca Rosa, and El Perdedor. Despite being from early 1900's Spain and Portugal, these bull-fighters look strangely familiar...
