15. #Kraftwerk - Trans-Europe Express/Metal On Metal/Abzug
The full version of this early classic, is it a nod towards "trance" music much later on? A hypnotic train-on-track beat throughout with some decent industrial metal-klang....

Ah, shit, hopefully it turns out ok. Great stuff from the NHS, but tough news for you. Keep strong, my friend, sending you love and good wishes via the BlueSky airwaves.

Ah, the joys of modern technology. Maybe you can watch the snooker afterwards, too. 😉

We could do with keeping (no pun intended) both of them, but Belshaw has to be the first choice.

You’re right there, there’s always some fantastic recommendations out there (and the odd dud too, we all have different tastes🙂)
I’ve a few hmhb albums, including Cammel Laird Social Club - I’ve not heard any for a while though. The new one was a pleasant surprise, very strong. 👍

I don’t know many of these, so I’ll add them to my list for further investigation. 👍😎
I played the HMHB album at the weekend and it’s fantastic, so that’s on my To Buy list.

Well, here’s my motley gang of contenders, for what it’s worth.
@richards7370.bsky.social does Fugazi’s Repeater count as their debut? 1989’s 13 Songs was a compilation, so it could be argued that Repeater is their first ‘proper’ album. Cheers.

Another album that basically became the soundtrack to my new life in England. By the way, did I ever mention how Luke Haines is a lyrical genius on a level with Oscar Wilde… hey, where are you going? Come back!

Great list, Antony.
Early 90s isn’t the best for me, so I’ve nicked a few of yours to add to mine, namely Jesus Lizard, Pram, Prolapse.
I’m loving the 2025 Prolapse album, so hoping their debut is of the same ilk. 👍😎
