"We're very excited about this great opportunity. Setting up our own label allows us to rip up the rulebook and find new ways of reaching an audience" - Tom Fletcher
The band have set up their own label, Super Records.
Singer and guitarist Tom Fletcher said: "We're very excited about this great opportunity. Setting up our own label allows us to rip up the rulebook and find new ways of reaching an audience."
McFly follow in the footsteps of Prince, who also gave away copies of his album.
A deluxe version of Radio:ACTIVE will be available in stores in September.
