Just Radiohead — The Bends

Coming soon

Archive note

MTV Europe promotional poster for an alternate release of Radiohead's second studio album, rendered as a hyperrealistic portrait of the band's frontman Thom Yorke mid-vocal at a vintage studio microphone. The piece captures a moment of raw intensity that never materialized in official iconography, suggesting a lost promotional campaign or shelved music video concept from the mid-1990s. Collectable for those tracking divergent Radiohead archival narratives and MTV's speculative marketing history.

Catalogued, not yet released. This artifact will become available to acquire soon.

One artifact. One owner. On acquisition it is permanently retired from the archive. You receive the high-resolution file and a signed certificate of exclusivity.
