My Bus
are
Joe Cassidy
and
Gary McKendry
. As
Butterfly Child
and
Papa Sprain
respectively they were restless parallel adventurers in the early days of UK dream-pop. The released EPs for
AR Kane
's label H.ark! and then for Rough Trade. They blazed radical trails for music, burned bright and then faded away. Now they have combined to form My Bus.
Our Life In The Desert
became is of the richest and most emotional dream-pop entities of any era. They combine Gary's love of dissonance and Joe's love of melody/composition. It is a deeply nostalgic record born out of love and a friendship across decades. The lyrics range from direct to oblique as the music spans oceanic drift ("Moon Tempo"), full-on drama ("Elvis & Me"), simmering pop tones ("Tomorrow Will Be Ours") and the stirring, multi-faceted "Goose Pimples Forever", rescued by the wonders of technology from an ancient disintegrating My Bus cassette. On the exquisite, haunting "Angeles", spoken words matched to one of his more restful ambient pieces. "It's an idea of confusion and uncertainty," says Gary ("Our minds contemplating the paltry limits of the conditional to my mind thoughts are only for preparing an entrance and an exit").
