In our search for long lost tracks we have now come to a Gothenburg indie act which kicked off around the same time as Broder Daniel started to become a name in the same city, Broder Daniel in their sail costume outfit. But the band I’m talking about did not wear any sail costumes. Although I once saw two members in gorilla masks and another time some off them worn a rocket helmet. Whom I’m talking about? Well, they called themselves Waterbug (probably taken from their fanatic interest in fishing) and they wrote clever songs about illness, planetary, out of space subjects and to be lost in a pancake etc etc.
To be perfectly honest I must admit that Waterbug was a quite an unequal band. They released three albums during their career, each one within its own personality. The song I’ve chosen, for ”This weeks top of the world track from A West Side Fabrication, in historical perspective”, is taken from their last and best album ”In Between Beast And Freak”. And yes, time has done its work on their music but on this particular album I can at least name you four five tracks that still are great, ”Last Night”, ”Can’t Stay Forever”, the title track ”In Between Beast And Freak” as well as the one I have chosen, ”On The Bus”.
Therefore I now give you ”On The Bus” a track still worth listen to, the third song in our search of long lost tracks.
