That would have worked better... The Bends is good guitar-pop, but the album seems a bit lacking at times. Songs like The Bends and Nice Dream really just make me want to skip to the next song. I'm not sure what you're getting at with "genuine" and "honest" but in no way do those describe The Bends any more than they describe any of the other post-Pablo Honey works. Maybe the term you're looking for is "stripped down" because it's not nearly as intricate of a record as OK Computer or even In Rainbows.
