It is a single disc in a standard jewel case, manufactured in North America by The ADS Group, holding all twelve songs in their original order at 48 minutes and 36 seconds. The disc's copyright line dates the recordings to 1995, with one exception: \"My Iron Lung,\" which first appeared in 1994.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat exception has a story. Unhappy with the versions of \"My Iron Lung\" cut at RAK Studios, the band used a live recording from the London Astoria, replaced Thom Yorke's vocal and removed the audience. Elsewhere on the disc, \"Fake Plastic Trees\" drew on the commercial development of Canary Wharf and on a Jeff Buckley performance that led Yorke to sing in falsetto, and on \"Just,\" Jonny Greenwood plays octatonic scales that extend over four octaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bends was the first Radiohead album with artwork by Stanley Donwood. He and Yorke took a video camera into the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford to film an iron lung, found it visually boring and filmed a CPR mannequin instead, then photographed the footage off a television screen and stretched the image to exaggerate the expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccording to the journalist Tim Footman, Capitol almost declined to release the album in the United States, feeling it lacked hit singles. It entered the Billboard 200 at the bottom of the chart in May 1995 and climbed slowly, peaking at number 88 in April 1996, while Radiohead toured as the support act for Soul Asylum and then R.E.M. The Bends was nominated for Best British Album at the 1996 Brit Awards. The video above is \"High and Dry,\" the third song here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlanet Telex (4:18)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Bends (4:06)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh and Dry (4:18)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFake Plastic Trees (4:50)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBones (3:09)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(Nice Dream) (3:53)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJust (3:55)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Iron Lung (4:36)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBullet Proof..I Wish I Was (3:29)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack Star (4:07)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSulk (3:43)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStreet Spirit (Fade Out) (4:12)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eComplete the Collection\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRadiohead albums in the shop, 11 counting this one:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/radiohead-pablo-honey\"\u003ePablo Honey\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Bends (this pressing)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/radiohead-ok-computer-vinyl?variant=48229801296030\"\u003eOK Computer\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/radiohead-kid-a\"\u003eKid A\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/radiohead-amnesiac\"\u003eAmnesiac\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/radiohead-i-might-be-wrong-live-recordings\"\u003eI Might Be Wrong - Live Recordings\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/radiohead-in-rainbows-vinyl?variant=48229777408158\"\u003eIn Rainbows\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/radiohead-the-king-of-limbs\"\u003eThe King Of Limbs\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/radiohead-a-moon-shaped-pool\"\u003eA Moon Shaped Pool\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/radiohead-kid-a-mnesia\"\u003eKid A Mnesia\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/radiohead-hail-to-the-thief-live-recordings-2003-2009\"\u003eHail To The Thief (Live Recordings 2003-2009)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 634904078027\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Xl Recordings\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.20.16\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Xl Recordings","offers":[{"title":"NEW \/ NEW","offer_id":48310367322270,"sku":"634904078027","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/8801\/1422\/files\/RadioHead_TheBends_2c.jpg?v=1790048564","url":"https:\/\/evergreenvinyl.com\/products\/radiohead-the-bends-cd","provider":"Evergreen Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
