This week’s conversation is on British rock band Radiohead’s album – The Bends.

Their second studio album, released on 13 March 1995 saw the band progress musically from their debut album, Pablo Honey.

While the band didn’t quite scale the peaks that their debut single had in the US charts, peaking in the US charts at #88, it reached #4 on the UK charts.

Critically acclaimed by some, slated by others, the band themselves would come to love some songs of the album, and hate others.

Amid a torturous few years for the band, this was the perfect album for them to create as the prelude to their career defining release a few years later.
