Was just thinking about this the other day. Some bands put together a classic album on the first try, and either expand from there, or fade away. What are some of your favorites?
Piper At The Gates Of Dawn Black Sabbath For Emma Forever Ago Pretty Hate Machine Reasonable Doubt Rage Against The Machine Is This It In The Court Of The Crimson King Aerosmith Unknown Pleasures Tired Eyes Slowly Burning Duran Duran This Is A Long Drive For Some one With Nothing To Think About I See Good Spirits, I See Bad Spirits Marquee Moon Furnace Cold Fact Songs Of Leonard Cohen Shape Of Jazz To Come Slim Shady LP That Total Age Kollaps Modern Lovers Live at The Witch Trials Endtroducing

The Beatles, Ryan Adams (solo), The Dodos, Arctic Monkeys, Portishead, Bon Iver, Gorillaz, Jay-Z, Kanye, LCD, Pavement, and The Shins. Or something like that.

And even then they were in semi successful other bands before it.
It brings up the question of what really is the debut album and what could just be a rough draft. Like Zapp posted a BOH album, does it matter that Ben Bridwell was in Carissas Weird before then?
I'm counting first LP release, not EP. Talking Heads - 77 30 Seconds to Mars - 30 Seconds to Mars (who have since gone downhill) Incubus - S.C.I.E.N.C.E. (who also have gone downhill) Facing New York - Facing New York Franz Ferdinand - Franz Ferdinand Jose Gonzalez - Venier Hot Sauce Johnson - Truck Stop Jug Hop (one and only amazing release) Boom Boom Satellites - Out Loud Rammstein - Herzeleid Opiate For the Masses - The Spore A Shoreline Dream - Avoiding the Consequences The Traveling Wilburys - Vol. 1 (do supergroup debut albums count?)
And totally agree with Zapp Branigan on The Black Crowes and Band of Horses!
-When I Hear My Name -Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground -Blue Orchid -Passive Manipulation -Red Rain -Death Letter -My Doorbell -Hotel Yorba -Same Boy You've Always Known -Lovesick -Little Ghost -We're Going to Be Friends -The Hardest Button to Button -Black Math -The Nurse -I Just Don't Know What to Do With Myself
Encore: -Ball and Biscuit -Seven Nation Army -Screwdriver
Also, Sang, I considered Deloused, but I still consider Tremulant the debut. Are EPs allowed, if they're relatively obtainable?
If these high profile debut EPs don't count then I'd add Death From Above 1979's "You're A Woman, I'm A Machine". One of my favorite rock albums of the last decade.
