Frank Ocean fans now have a pretty big reason to be excited about Black Friday (Nov. 25): He's released his newest album Blonde on vinyl.

The singer quietly added vinyl and physical CD orders to his website around midnight on Thursday night. He has also released limited edition T-shirts and additional merchandise.

While Ocean's vinyl release came without any official announcement or warning, his younger brother Ryan Breaux took to Twitter late Thursday night and teased a photo of what appeared to be vinyl editions of Blonde.

The new versions of the record are being released by XL Recordings, perhaps confirming Ocean has signed with the indie label. As we previously mentioned, he had abruptly ended his deal with Def Jam prior to Blonde's arrival.

It's also worth noting, the words "Promo Only" are prominently displayed alongside the "Black Friday 2016" announcement on Ocean's website. It's unclear if the aforementioned products will only be available on Friday.
