Advantages: Every song is good

Disadvantages: The lyrics aren't always great

Radiohead are an outstanding band with an outstanding few albums. This is without a doubt their best effort.
Despite common believe, Radiohead music isn't all depressive, and some of the songs are actually quite uplifting, take High and Dry for example.
The most beautiful track on the album is fake plastic trees, which is not only a nice guitar tune, the singing is impressive, and the lyrics are quite provocative and reminiscent "he use to surgery, for girls in the 80's"
'The Bends' seems heavily influenced by Neil Young, R.E.M. and Joni Mitchell to name a few, be it on purpose or without them realising it.
A great album, a classic of the 90's and without a doubt, one of the best albums of all time. Excellent.
