Album A Day #3: The Bends


Ah - one of my personal favorites. This is one of those rare albums that is released and every single track on it is flat out good. In Radiohead's musical catalog this is their one shining gem. Their other albums are good - but for some reason this album just stands so much taller than anything else they had done previous and since.

It's almost like a sonic landscape or a painting with tones and the lyrics help set the color and detail. Great little album by a great little band - easily in my top 10 favorites of all time.

Hmm. I've never listened to Radiohead. I'll check it out.

This is why this "Album a Day" idea is a great one!

Also, while you check-out Radiohead, you must check-out 3
other bands while you're at it.....Gomez, Cornershop, and
Supergrass..... I know of a free music site which has over 6,000 albums and those 3 along w/Radiohead are on there.... I dont know if I should post the link or not, so if anyone is interested I will PM everyone it.... The only drawback is it's for sampling purposes only, so the songs are protected against being d/l....

As far as Radiohead...Definitely an excellent selection..... One can't go wrong w/Pablo Honey, OK Computer, and Kid A either...
Amnesiac was solid, but to me didnt live up to those other 4...
I havent listened to much Hail to the Thief, but plan on doing that soon....

Did any of you guys check this out? It's one of my favorite albums by my absolute favorite band, Thoguh it's not as good as 'Kid A', 'OK COMPUTER', and 'Amnesiac'. It is definitly more accesible then any other of there CD's. Very strait forward Alternitive Rock, which amazing tracks. Planet Telex is one of my favorite songs ever.

I prefer this one over "Kid A" and "Amnesiac". But "OK Compter" is still the #1 Radiohead album in my book.
