No he’s just being pedantic as usual😉 Let's wait for felonious's adjudication on this one. He started the thread Well as you know I try not to get involved these days with either this lot or the other lots There's probably very few acts out there who hadn't had a dabble before they launched. Ian Dury for instance was with Kilburn and the high roads??? before New Boots and panties.

Introducing the hardline is fucking brilliant. One of my favourite pop albums ever. Easy to listen to in full I’ll give that a try, I’ve started to listen to some of the suggestions on this thread at work as I’ve not listened to loads of them. Hopefully it broadens the horizons. This is a great thread I have to say for that reason alone. Surprised Fel hasn’t posted any Grandaddy yet….. Unfortunately The Sophtware Slump was not the first album

There are loads since most bands and artists make their very best albums on the first recording, while they're still filled with energy, enthusiasm, hunger, creativity and ideas.
Let me mention just one though: "A car crash in the blue" by Atomic Swing 🇸🇪
Many bands tend to repeat themselves or running out of ideas the more releases they make.
It can only be beaten by the movie industry, tv series etc.

Not the best but 'Up the bracket' by The Libertines was an important one for me as a 12 year old.

One from my youth
Helloween - The Walls of Jericho (85/86?)
I loved/love Helloween, they were the soundtrack of my teen years, mainly after Kai Hansen stood down from vocals and Michael Kiske (who was 17!) took them up for the follow up Keeper of the Seven Keys I & II masterpieces
I stopped following them tbh when Hansen and then Kiske left in the early 90s following a massive band fallout, but they kept going under Andi Deris with a massive fanbase
A chance meeting at a festival between Kai and Micahel Weikath (other founding member) saw them make up, and in 2016/7 to now they 're-united' the Pumpkins - doing fantastic stage shows with all 3 singers, all 3 guitarists, original bass player Markus Groskopf and the rest of the current band all on stage.
This performance of 'Keeper of the Seven Keys' is from Wacken in Germany in 2017 - its epic - they toured here this year and I'm hoping they are back again soon!

Not sure if this counts as it was their only album but Nevermind The Bollocks was supposed to have inspired a lot of bands that came after.

Though it does sound like a record that could have been made by The Ramones 35 years previously - with a bit of The Beach Boys thrown in for good measure. What's not to like.
