Top 10 Debut Albums from Music Artists that Remained Their Best Album

The Top Ten
1 Appetite for Destruction - Guns N' Roses

Almost all the greatest songs of guns n roses are in these album. Excellent choice

Ha Ha, Axl Shouldn't have fired his band members to ruin his band.

2 Annihilator - Alice in Hell

They had 2-3 albums that came close to this but didn't surpass it.

3 Dio - Holy Diver

Every album after was basically a remake.

4 Jeff Buckley - Grace
5 Ramones - Ramones

I think that Rocket to Russia is just as good as this one.

6 Illmatic - Nas

Nas made a lot of great albums but he's always lived under this shadow, that 99.9% of rappers have lived under as well.

7 Korn - Korn
8 Yngwie Malmsteen - Rising Force
9 Sex Pistols - Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols

Actually it's their only studio album.

But... It's their only album...

10 Evanescence - Fallen

Fallen was great, but The Open Door was just on a whole different level of amazing.

My Immortal, Bring Me To Life, Going Under

The Contenders
11 World of Noise - Everclear
12 Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath

Paranoid and Master of Reality are both better than the first album. I think they were great all the way to Sabotage.

13 Generic - Flipper
14 Boston - Boston

This one deserves to be higher. I like Don't Look Back, but I don't think it's the same level as the first one. As for the rest of their discography, well...

15 Exodus - Bonded by Blood

At #8 because some of their albums came close to it but this still remained the best.

16 King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King

I actually think Larks' Tongues in Aspic is slightly better. But this is one of the best debut albums. I'm just happy to see it on a list.

No, they had many good albums, but for me their best album was Red.

17 Frizzle Fry - Primus

Glad to see this on the list;
Or maybe I added this myself and forgot...

18 The Doors - The Doors

I happen to like many of their albums, but to many people, this is their peak.

19 Milo Goes to College - Descendents
20 The Killers - Hot Fuss
21 Get Rich or Die Tryin' - 50 Cent
22 Slipknot - Slipknot
23 Pink Floyd - The Piper at the Gates of Dawn

Ok, I was being a little harsh when I made that comment. I didn't realize how many people appreciate Syd Barrett and his work. I'm sorry.

24 Are You Experienced - The Jimi Hendrix Experience

No. All of their albums were great.

25 Frank Black - Frank Black
