Albums of offensive bum noises (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

omnibuses

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'albums' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'offensive bum noises' is the wordplay.
'offensive' indicates an anagram (offensive implies disruption or upset).
'bum'+'noises'='bumnoises'
'bumnoises' anagrammed gives 'OMNIBUSES'.

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for omnibuses that I've seen before include "public transport" , "traffic on the roads" , "Large volumes" .)
