05.12.21 | Top two are great again, still my favourite Parquet Courts album that one. Any I've missed? |

05.12.21 | Laurel Halo - Quarantine is an obvious one
Kyary Pamyu Pamyu - Pamyu Pamyu Revolution is a very esoteric one l o l
Hop Along - Get Disowned is technically not a debut
Kishi Bashi - 151a is a strong maybe runneruppile
Born to Die is an album by Lana del Rey |

05.12.21 | Nice Johnny, Laurel Halo is good, prefer a couple of the later albums myself.
Kishi Bashi I don't get, find him super bland but sometimes his stuff sounds pretty. Very 6 out of 10 for the doof.
Hop Along I don't dig at all, 'Born to Die' is best Lana but still that dreaded 6 out of 10 level. |

05.12.21 | Lol yes BtD is a hard 3 but I'm so proud she made an album with more good songs than awful ones that I feel it deserves (*inhales the internet*) bias. maybe. |
Gyromania
05.12.21 | 3 is so good. Haven't heard 1 |
DoofDoof
05.12.21 | yeah Gyro, prefer the follow up slightly but not a lot in it |

05.12.21 | Some good uns here. I loved 2 when it came out don’t think I’ve listened to it since about 2014 |

05.12.21 | zak that's the sort of debut where part of me would have liked it if that had been one and done and they left it there, would have been more legendary
as is they released a load of similar and pretty good albums but that took the gloss of that debut a bit, some dilution of appeal going on |
zakalwe
05.12.21 | Agreed.
Alarmingly it’s taken nearly a decade to have even a snifter of a ‘good’ debut.
Diabolical set of circumstances. |

05.13.21 | 1 is just what I needed atm. Just wonderful. |
DoofDoof
05.13.21 | Not a lot of variety on it but still perfect, glad you dig Lark |
NorthernSkylark
05.13.21 | It’s like his voice crumbles as the album ends, like he can barely get the words out, so he just slow bellows them out from the rooftops. I certainly dig it tho. |
