There was a moment, back in Halcyon days of early January 2008, when Joe Lean & The Jing Jang Jong were thought to be the future of music. As you can see from this picture things had already gone slightly awry.



Well, I bring you sad news. They've decided to scrap the release of their debut album, about two weeks before its release. Apparently the album 'didn't truly reflect where the band are at musically', which is management speak for 'it's utter dog shit'. A re-recorded version will be released next January to a fanfare of 'weren't they the band that were tipped for big things in January 2008 but didn't get anywhere and now things are moving so fast in music that I'm already really bored of them?'
