Many bands achieve greatness in their careers, but who had the greatest debut album.
I'll throw some of my choices out there
Pearl Jam - Ten
Their best album. Relistened to it recently after a while without hearing it and I don't feel it has aged or been diminished by time even slightly.
Oasis - Definitely maybe.
Their best album. Chock full of classics
Rage against the machine - RATM
Their best album. Remember their UK TV debut on "the word" like it was yesterday.

Pixies - Surfer Rosa
Gomez - Bring It On
Portishead - Dummy
Fun Lovin' Criminals - Come Find Yourself

Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin
Artic Monkeys - Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not.
The Beatles - Please please me!
Each of these are superb debut albums. You could listen to them again and again, and they still sound as fresh as the first time you heard the.

Artic Monkeys - Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not.
This is one I just don't understand. I've tried and tried to like this album, but I grew up on the Indie music of the late 80s/early 90s and it sounds like a lot of the stuff that didn't quite make the grade back then. If they'd been around in circa 1990ish they'd have made it as far as being a support band for someone, no more than that. If that's the best album that 2006 had to offer (and the NME says it is) then it was a pretty shit year. |

The Foo Fighters debut album is also brilliant, as is the Stereophonics' 'Word Gets Around'.

Probably because it was so overhyped. Nothing that special, but not bad. |

I quite like the Monkeys album but it is well overhyped and for me, definately not the album OTY. That award would go the latest Muse album. Was going to say about the Foo Fighters too and I quite agree with all the other albums posted so far.......except the UB40 one lol  Damn, I was wondering why the Tribecca 20k hasn't loaded up for me and I'm not registered  Could have sworn I was. being a big Wonderstuff fan, I'll have to mention 8 Legged Groove Machine. Also Janes Addiction and Primal Screams first albums are damn fine bit of music. More to follow, better concentrate on those tournies I am in! |

Not worldwide. Whitney - by Whitney Houston has that title. |
