Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1995, Alternative, Art Rock, Abingdon, England 6/26
Matrix #: N/A

Cultural Facts:

1. Personal Struggle: Thom Yorke was born with a paralyzed left eye and went through multiple childhood surgeries, a visible difference that fed early alienation.
2. Media Narrative: The Bends pulled Radiohead out of the “Creep” one-hit-wonder trap and recast them as a band with a longer, stranger future.
3. Studio Lore: Sessions were tense after heavy Pablo Honey touring, with producer John Leckie helping turn exhaustion and pressure into a full album identity.
