Fantastic news, Joe Lean of the much loved around these parts Joe Lean and the Jing Jang Jong is back with his new band Boyband. See their debut video below...
The band played their debut gig in London recently kicking off with the single “Motorcycle Boy”, a snarling slice of indie rock which bodes well. We are chuffed that at least a couple of tracks bear more than a passing resemblance to JJJ – a soaring chorus here, some girl group harmonies there. Joe minces around, staring deadpan into the middle distance, finger-clicking.
A track we didnt get the title of opens with the drum beat from Primal Scream’s “Rocks” before turning into a 60s-esque ballad that opens with Joe crooning “you got me wrong” and a riff-heavy Strokes-esque number called “Tiger Stripes” that features more self-deprecating lines. Closer “Give It Up” features a repeated chorus of “You’re bringing me down”.
We hope this is the start of something for Joe, we were gutted when the JJJ finished and loved their unreleased album, heres to Joe for 2014 (full review here)
