The best album of the 90's - Moon Safari vs the Bends

[monkeybarry]

Have to admit I listened back to both again today and had forgotten how incredible The Bends is. It's better than Moon Safari, I got that wrong. It is exceptionally crafted from start to finish.

All tied after 24 hours so voting extended for another day

thought there was no place in rock music for whiny






Kid A was Radioheads best album anyway...

I didn't complete that sentence.

It was supposed to say "There's no room for whiny little bitches"

Radiohead may whine but they're not whiny little bitches

How do you define little bitches @scaramanga?

Jeff Buckley.

I'm sure that I have read that Buckley was a direct influence on the Bends and that the band went to see him during recording it and he helped them overcome writers/production block.

That may be. He's still a whiney bitch and I have no time for his music.

I think that you can certainly hear it as the key influence that changed their sound between the first and second album.

First album was comfortably their best.

It's a shame that we're to late to include this

I disagree and I worked with them during that period. I think that it is a pretty pedestrian album, some good ideas but not fully developed and very patchy.

Wooooah you worked with Radiohead? Alert, alert, all eyes over here, point your fingers and ask questions accusingly.

Air is the sort of music your mum listens to whilst shaving your father's ballsac.

Yeah. That was a clam move. I am the big I am. Reality is a lot more dull and I just put on some gigs.

Come on mate, was it the Reading Festival? Or are you Steve Albini? Or did you show Johhny Greenwood how to play guitar with a dildo?

Tbh, generally I assume you are a big bear in a jumper.

He is a big bear in a jumper. They can put on gigs too you know. Racist.

I promoted gigs in the early to mid nineties and Radiohead were a band I put on. Nice guys. I hammered them at table football two against one.
