Probably the best album ever produced in my opinion. Radiohead are not even my favourite band but The Bends somehow covers every angle, tortures every note, has massive highs and lows, encompasses vicious punk-like thrashy guitar and stunningly beautiful finger picking awesomeness.
From Planet Telex to Sulk; there's nothing not to love about this album.
There are some amazing albums in the juke box of Lurtz but I think The Bends beats them all. Yeah, even Damned Damned Damned isn't as good as The Bends.
My Iron Lung sums up the album for me. Just stunning.
