UK import, new album! Here`s a bunch of quotes to start off with: "Gentle
genius".-Q magazine. "4 stars...beautifully crafted record of sad but wryly
upbeat honesty. " - Record Collector. "4 stars...the band is in good form,
My Chain exudes a homemade feel, 14 songs framed by piano, churchy organ,
glockenspiel and fuzzy keyboards"-Uncut. "3 1/2 stars.. His voice is still
a wheezy adolescent warble, he still gives the feel of an eternal teenage
obsessed with silly jokes and the small details of love and life, and he
still loves the Beach Boys, soft rock and jangling guitar pop and uses these
influences very well. In other words just what fans of the BMX`ers have been
missing for the last decade. There aren`t many bands who get the balance of
cute lyrics with dead serious ones, plinky keyboards and cheesy drum
machines with fully strummed guitars and lush guitars or cringingly personal
observations and laugh out loud funny jokes, as right as Stewart and his
friends do. ..an interesting and satisfying indie pop experience. The
arrival of My Chain also serves as a reminder that the next BMX record needs
to happen much sooner that 2016."-AMG. "One of Britain`s best-kept
secrets... some of the most sumptuous, emotionally devastating pop songs
never to grace the top 40... a dream marriage of Brian Wilson and Michel
Legrand`s Umbrellas of Cherbourg" -The Daily Telegraph. "A beautifully
crafted record of sad but wryly upbeat honesty"- Record Collector. "5
stars...It is a blessing that such a curious and fragile pop oddity can
exist in this blustery and busy modern world. Great songs"- N.M.E. The
band`s ever morphing line up has, for 20 years now, revolved around head
Bandit and composer Duglas T Stewart. BMX Bandits released their first
single in 1986 and in 2006 they release their 14th album MY CHAIN.
Ex-Bandits include members of the following bands past and present: Teenage
Fanclub, The Vaselines, Belle & Sebastian, Music & Movement, Future Pilot
AKA, National Park, Superstar, The Soup Dragons, The Green Peppers and a few
others.
