All About Eve. Nearly a perfect debut, and they never even got close afterwards.
Deacon Blue: Raintown. Even though most of their bigger hits came off When the World Knows Your Name I think the debut is a far tighter and well written album.

Everything Kvelertak has released since their 2010 self-titled debut has been a basket of farts.

I guess those who didn't notice Bleach until Nevermind, which was half the world or maybe even millions more back then. Of course now you have Wikipedia telling you that it was their debut album, but it didn't exited back then, hence the contentious nature of what's Nirvana's debut album. It's a honest question. I am not being cheeky or anything. It's pretty well explained in the Wikipedia article.

Bleach was well received by critics, but failed to chart in the U.S. upon its original release. The album was re-released internationally by Geffen Records in 1992 following the success of Nirvana's second album, Nevermind (1991). The re-release debuted at number 89 on the Billboard 200, and peaked at number 33 on the UK Albums Chart and 34 on the Australian albums chart. In 2009 Sub Pop released a 20th anniversary edition of Bleach featuring a live recording of a Nirvana show in Portland, Oregon from 1990 as extra material. Since its release in 1989, Bleach has sold more than 1.9 million units in the United States alone.[1] It is Sub Pop's best-selling release to date.[2]

A lot of these are arguable and just personal preference. Dimmu Borgir, Agalloch, Every Time I Die, Primus, Suicidal Tendencies, Slipknot, Tomahawk, Isis, Venom, Satyricon, Shpongle... and whatever for now

Bleach came out before Nevermind, I'm pretty sure there's no way around that

That one's arguable from my end. I think I like Evil Empire better
