#5DebutAlbums9094 this was an unexpected one Gillian Gilbert and Stephen Morris from New Order - Other Two. I've only recently come round to NO, I was put off by his voice but I actually think this is better than NO and the Electronic album from this round.
Her voice and the instrumentation is great

I love Ocean Colour Scene.
The band have a shout at best drummer, bassist, guitarist and singer of 90s Britpop.
2nd album Moseley Shouls is a classic.
I thought their debut wasn't great (the cover artwork is terrible) but it actually might just be a contender for my #5DebutAlbums9094 top 5.

#5DebutAlbums9094 for me the greatest debut album of all time, Definitely, no maybes. Changed the course of my life at 14. Got to relive it again in 2025, shouting it out with my mates, arms around each other, a collective happening.

Made a few discoveries in the last few years on social media of artists who don't look like Sabrina Carpenter and would have been gatekept out by A&R.
One of those this year is Corook who is writing pop songs worthy of the top of the charts. She put out Commited to a Bit in Feb. #5albums25

Got a #5albums25 contender, hadn't heard of them before. Mix of hip-hop beats, samples, jazz, pop.

An artist that has really caught my ear in the last 5 years and got me rushing to open Shazam every time she came on the radio is Lael Neale. Altogether Stranger is another great album.
Will probably feature high up in my top 5.

#5DebutAlbums7074 comparing Faces side by side with Humble Pie. Marriott was head and shoulders above Stewart, despite his diminutive size.
What a voice, RIP.

My #5debutAlbums7074 votes so far. Just dropped Harrison out to make space for others as expect him to be safe. Moved house so not had time to get through the full playlist I made. Next 2 days doing the new 4 hour round trip commute should fix that.

I'd totally forgotten about Lissie, her debut album is great, can't put a genre on it as it explores different styles but still works as an album

I actually started my #5DebutAlbums1014 playlist back when I was searching for the 1st round, 1st band I put in it was Temples.
Their debut album is like a best of from a 60s psychedelic band. Every song could have been a single.
And they looked the part, all cheekbones, wirey frames and Bolan hair.

Quite a lot of this round sounds very of its time, both in production and in song and performance. #5DebutAlbums8084
Was taken aback when Swans kicked in thought id accidentally put a 2025 album in the playlist.
Got an Idles/Sleaford Mods sound. Not my cup of tea but interesting to hear dif style

Half way through my #5DebutAlbums8084 playlist I have a top 20.
This isn't my musical era, I don't think its is as good as the music from when I was a teenager/early 20s.
Realising this proves how people perceive music is more about their emotional/mental state and I might never get that rush again

Phoenix - United. This band was a mainstay of house parties throughout the 2000s. Not quite the same heights they reached with album 4 Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, but a great debut.

Ordinary Boys - Over the counter culture.
The singer went on to embarrass himself on Big Brother and Nevermind the Buzzcocks, but his band were great, super tight (excellent drummer), well crafted Jam-inspired songs, they were lots of fun live.
