The Bends (Pt. 1)

The Big Mates discuss air fryers, high charts, dry charts, and
The Bends by Radiohead.

Adam, Steve, and Lucas continue their deep dive into the career
and discography of Radiohead by picking up where they left off
starting their deep dive into the band's second album, released
in 1995. They talk about the writing and recording process, the
context surrounding the songs, and offer up analysis, opinions,
and thoughts from three differing perspectives on music, from
being deeply into analysis and music, to not caring for art or
critique, and everything in between.

They touch on how the band once again struggled with the studio
environment, their new approach to experimentation, and how
The Bends fits into the popular culture of the time in
which it was released...
