Originally released in 1995, The Bends is the critically acclaimed second studio album from British alternative rock legends Radiohead, fronted by the unmistakable Thom Yorke.
Building on the success of their debut album Pablo Honey, Radiohead returned with a more mature and atmospheric sound, blending powerful guitar riffs, haunting melodies and emotionally charged vocals.
Featuring iconic tracks such as "High and Dry", "Fake Plastic Trees", "Just", "My Iron Lung" and "Street Spirit (Fade Out)", The Bends delivers an unforgettable mix of soaring alternative rock anthems and introspective songwriting.
Exploring themes of alienation, anxiety, relationships and modern life, the album marked a major turning point in Radiohead's musical evolution and laid the foundations for their groundbreaking follow-up, OK Computer.
Widely regarded as one of the greatest alternative rock albums of the 1990s, The Bends remains an essential addition to any indie rock or alternative vinyl collection. Perfect for fans of Muse, Placebo, The Smashing Pumpkins and Blur.
