Leonard Cohen's "Songs of Leonard Cohen"  is an absolute masterpiec.

"Over and Done With" by The Proclaimers is also a very good album, massively overshadowed by Sunshine on Leith, which followed it.

"Showbiz" by Muse is their best album imo.

"Beautiful Freak" by Eels is also a tremendously good album, which still sounds tremendously good even after 25 years.

Most of the others I would have mentioned have already been quoted.

That’s what I meant... Getting the album title mixed up with the song that the lyrics are used in.

Lo Fidelity Allstars - How to operate with a blown mind.
I played it to death at the time and never, ever got bored of it. Outstanding album.

The less said about the follow up, the better. No word to describe how dreadful it was.

Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols
Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not
The Stone Roses

Don't think very many British debuts can touch those three tbh. There's probably more I've forgotten about, but those are the ones that stick out for me. Can't be bothered naming ones outwith Britian as there's too many.

I loved the roses they were the soundtrack to my teenage years, saw them at Glasgow Green and the Barrowlands, I didn't like it when they reformed it didn't feel right to me, i didn't listen to them for ages but since it's 30 years since it was released I stuck it on and it still sounds amazing, good times.
