Biography
1) A Oberlin, OH, USA five-piece progressive pop band (aka Skeletons And The Kings Of All Cities, Skeletons & The Girl-Faced Boys and Skeletons And The Girl-Faced Boys), which uses the complexity of jazz patterns / experimentation and is currently residing in New York City. Their latest release is the album “People” (Apr 2011, Shinkoyo / Crammed Discs).

2) A pseudonym of Benedic Lamdin (aka The Hermit and Nostalgia 77), who used this name to release “Smile” (Mar 2010, Impossible Ark Records).

3) A Sheffield, UK band, formed from the ashes of a Sheffield band with a fierce reputation for the best live show in the UK. After almost a year in preparation and with just a handful of people lucky enough to witness the elusive 5-piece, Skeletons are now ready to take back that crown. A few eagle-eyed critics have managed to stow away into invite only secret shows and had the following things to say.
“.forcing 10,000 volts into this Sheffield five-piece would barely muster the power for the keyboard, never mind the rest of the group!”
“Skeletons wield a staggering blues rock foot stomping sound whilst remaining within the realms of their Sheffield background”
“I truly believe if you’re reading this article hoping to find a new favourite band, you don’t have to read much further. the band are a rock n roll force to be reckoned with, the live domain is theirs!”

perhaps I'm kinda underestimating the average Skeletons listener (as well as the casual one), but for me it's not an album to be put on shuffle along with the previous records. taking the bus analogy, it would be an interstate rather than a metropolitan one, I mean, one can't simply hop in at the middle of its route; there's a start and an endpoint, with beautiful landscapes to wander upon. I just think that will be many listeners unwilling to this kind of trip. and hey, I've bought the limited vinyl edition, can't wait to lose myself in it.

I can't see how people would be disappointed by The Bus, it's incredibly incredible. I haven't been this surprised by an album I wasn't expecting for a long time.

"the bus" lives up to its name, quite a trip. though I guess many people will be disappointed.
