The Bends LP

Album Details

While Radiohead saw its stock rising, it wasn't until their artisic breakthrough, The Bends that the band really began to be realized for their soaring aspirations. Displaying a far more expansive approach than its predecessor, The Bends marries such ambitious and often challenging, instrumental soundscapes to songs that are at their cores hauntingly melodic and accessible. It's one of the most essential albums of the '90s and a spectacular indicator of further greatness to come.
