The Bends

A disease of seamen, acquired by going down too far and coming up too fast.
"Have you seen Rachel recently?"

"No, I think she got the bends after hanging out with Michael on his yacht a couple days back."

The Bends

The sophomore LP from British rock band Radiohead, released in 1995. In many ways, The Bends is very similar to their debut, Pablo Honey, albeit more inventive. Rather than relying so much on rock cliches, Radiohead began to delve into more advanced songwriting. Although they had not yet entirely embraced their reliance on the studio for their sound, there is clearly more studio usage with this album as can be seen on songs like "Planet Telex," "Fake Plastic Trees," and "Street Spirit (Fade Out)."
Generally speaking, The Bends is Radiohead's most immediately accessible album. Though the songs are not as blatantly simple as those on Pablo Honey, they are still firmly within the parameters of rock. It did, however, serve as a brilliant transition between their heavily R.E.M.-influenced music and the more post-rock style of their 1997 release, OK Computer. The Bends has since earned a reputation as one of the best albums of the 1990s.
I prefer early Radiohead, such as The Bends, to their more experimental work.

"The" Bands

Bands whose names typically begin with the word "The".

"The" Bands all play the same brand of Faux Arthouse pretso garbage, tending to look and sound almost identical to each other to the point where they are indistinguishable from one another when heard on the radio. Despite this, "The" bands enjoy almost unwavering popularity on both sides of the pond.

Examples of "The" Bands include:
The Magic Numbers
The Zutons
The Thrills
The Strokes
The Kooks
The Feeling
If I great plague was to suddenly wipe all trace of "The" Bands from this planet, I wouldn't miss a wink of sleep.

The Bond Heard Round Big Sur

A legendary act that went down in history in the summer of 2013 at a house in Big Sur. A single 6'-9" ginger applied 1/2 cup of Gold Bond to his genitalia & face area in one fell swoop. The tingling brought him to both knees & has been ingrained in the history of the California Central Coast for all eternity.
The Bond Heard Round Big Sur - the legendary feat completed by one insanely tall ginger in the summer of 2013

Example: Wow nice form on that gold bond application! It may have been a solid application but have you brews heard of the "Bond Heard Round Big Sur"? Take a seat.
