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...
