    Appetite for Destruction - Guns N' Roses
    Boy - U2

    Ten - Pearl Jam
    Velvet Underground & Nico - The Velvet Underground
    Rage Against the Machine - Rage Against the Machine
    Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not - Arctic Monkeys
    The Blue Album - Weezer

  5. Lots of good mentions in here. I'd also like to throw out Jeff Buckley's Grace and Elvis Costello's My Aim Is True.
  6. The greateast debut ever would have to be Appetite for Destruction, Guns N Roses
  7. Have nothing to add really. Guns N Roses and Mumford & Sons wipe the floor with this I think.

    Must check out that Of Monsters And Men actually.
  8. This might as well be a good part of my 50 favorite albums ever, you know? Debuts have that "something" that makes them so special and stand out among full discographies...
    The next albums are 20 must-have long plays, which earn their true recognition when you realize they were those bands' first recorded album...
