Despite the massive commercial success of their debut single, Creep, in 1993, most critics dismissed Radiohead as a one-hit wonder. But two years later, their sophomore effort, The Bends, took the world by storm and by surprise. Filled with dark and lovely ballads, soaring vocals, and grinding guitars, the album would go on to be considered one of the best albums of the 1990s, and eventually one of the best of all time. It would also cement Radiohead's reputation as one of the most brilliant and innovative acts in rock history.
Take a listen as Jon and Chris celebrate this epic masterpiece twenty-five years after its release.
