    I like that album.

    I understand why they were more popular later, but in my opinion, all the following albums are boring in comparison.

    Pablo Honey is a rock band playing some songs. The following albums are like listening to a studio production of Thom Yorke whining on top of carefully selected backing tracks.

      You don’t see The Bends as a more mature take on that rock band playing some songs?

        There was a few good songs on that too, but I haven’t listened to it as intensively as I did with Pablo Honey, because it seemed to be more of the same. Maturity is not really a quality that I look for in rock music.

          I guess I meant that they developed their songwriting skills rather than discussed more mature topics or whatever.
