What didn't you like about that? Or is this about the cover?

Where does it say I don't like it...?

Yeah, sorry, couldn't find a "delete" button after I posted that. I got all confoozled and thought this was the "worst debut" thread.

The Mars Volta's Deloused in the Comatorium is pretty much a flawless debut

Yeah, Pink Moon is just the right length. If it lasted a full 40 minutes or so, it would get a bit much (IMHO)

I have it on vinyl too. Nice listen.

Surprised Eminem isn't on that list of top selling debuts, he sold a mint.

The comments re Third Eye Blind (shit that's a good album) and Ryan Adams (of course) are right...and Weezer. Actually, so many awesoem bands nailed it on the first attempt. Then, when the corporate ticket clippers woke up and attached themselves to the bands the creativity waned. What does that tell you?

I just knew there was good in you somewhere

Van Halen I

King Crimson - In the court of the crimson king

+1

What happened? Such promise, but nowhere to take it after that I suppose?

Nirvana - Bleach. Maybe not the best album but a landscape changer all the same

Here's a bit of a left-field/not-quite-but-kind-of obscure entry for the 80s - does anyone else have love Tesla's Mechanical Resonance?

This!

I'm also a big fan of Audioslave's first album. I know there's a lot of people that aren't big fans, but I always find myself listening to it.

I was going to mention Audioslave, but then I don't think 'Supergroups' should be allowed to play this game.

Contraband by Velvet Revolver is a great album, back to back good songs, no filler, but again it was Gunners with Scott Weiland, so it was bound to be at least passable as a first album!

+1 on Weezer blue.

What about Living Colour - Vivid?

ooh, and not a guitar album but, "the hardline according to Terance Trent D'arby"

I kinda loved Vivid for a long time, but I've finally hit a point where I'm starting to feel that it's not aging as well.
