I have a few debut albums that I count among my favorites, this is one of `em!

Iron Maiden's s/t is also very good

it was probably the first time punk and metal got together and had a son called NWOBHM

Always been a fan of Interpol of course, so I may be a bit biased, but I still love this album. It's solid throughout, but looking back, the song order at the beginning of the album was somewhat awkward.

I have a few that are a little difficult to compare as they are somewhat different in style (see, I avoided saying 'genre'

). However, overall, I'd have to go for this:

I'd say this album is on a par with Elephant, which seems to the album that gets all the recognition. I actually consider Elephant to be their third best behind this and White Blood Cells. There's a fantastic energy and a real raw quality to Jack's playing and vocals.

This album, White Blood Cells, and Elephant are all great. After Elephant, they sorta started going downhill in my opinon.

she rides jack's coattail and definitely is the most simple drummer (though it helps their songs) meg white is pathetic.
