Favourite debut album

Everyone knows mine (Marillion's) but what's yours? And why?

(That was a short post, but then, how much do I need to explain the concept behind this...?)

fairly obvious.

Firstly, the quote in anticipation's sig is certainly my favourite comment on MB ever.

I would probably say my "favourite" is The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses, but after years of listening to more music, I have to admit that it isn't that great an album overall. However, Company Flow - Funcrusher Plus is probably the debut album I would consider to be the "best".

The Velvet Underground and Nico - The antithesis of what was the hippie happening in '67. Mainly all dressed in black (at the time, of course), singing songs about things a lot of people were scared to hear, feedback, Lou Reed's way with a killer melody and street wise lyrics, John Cale's strong Bass playing and classic artful additions to the sound (The Viola, especially), NICO, the sinister Exploding Plastic Inevitable show and Warhol connection, the classic "Peel Slowly and See" Banana cover, the quotes (Cher's is especially memorable!), Mo Tucker's hard thumping rhythm, the decadence, and the sound that was ready to shock the last few years of a decade that was puking technicolor and caught the attention of those ready to dive into some stronger music. Hearing this album back in '86, during the start of my Punk Rock Adventure, I found out what I would have been raving about back in the day (and I was also just starting to get into The Birthday Party, too...all the pieces were being put together).

"All Tomorrows Parties," "Run Run Run," "Venus in Furs," "Waiting for the Man," ...damn, just the whole album.

If it were not for this, I wonder if a lot of my other favorite Debut Albums would have even existed.

They probably would.

Don't attach them, copy and paste the image url into [IMG] (no space) [/IMG] instead.

Wishbone Ash - Wishbone Ash

Youth & Young Manhood - Kings of Leon
Everybody Else is Doing It So Why Can't We? - The Cranberries
Appetite for Destruction - Guns N' Roses

I'm sure there is more.

Good pick on Wishbone Ash, I love that debut album.
