Bands whose first album was their weakest?

Recommended Posts

And also Midlake - Bamnan and Silvercork was a really, meh album whereas The Trials of Van Occupanther and The Courage of Others are genius.

I wholeheartedly agree with mentions of Radiohead's Pablo Honey and Sigur Rós's first efforts.

Modest Mouse - Sad Sappy Sucker (1995)

An absolutely horrible bunch of recordings. So bad, in fact, that K Records didn't release the album until 2001--after MM had released three albums and a few EPs, all excellent--when they figured there would be at least a few people curious to know how the band sounded then.

Edit to add that I kind of wish the record companies would have done the same with their last couple of albums. They used to be one of my favorites... sigh.

Indeed Trav. I even mentioned it in the OP...

Well if you had capitalised it as you should then I would have noticed wouldn't I? :P

My bad for not reading it all and just picking the obvious names out.

I know this is going to make me sound an ultra-sad pathetic geek, but the reason I never capitalised it is because blur themselves never did either.

Piper At The Gates of Dawn

Speak for yourself - I'd listen to that over Dark Side... any day!

It's got ****ing Interstellar Overdrive on it for god's sake!!

You clearly haven't heard Welcome The Night then. Plus you were there when they reformed with just Kris and a violin. Terrible.

I actually really like it.

When I first heard it I thought it was god awful but I downloaded it a few months back and got really into it, although it still is such a departure even from So Long Astoria.
