00:176. Avenged Sevenfolds Sounding the Seventh Trumpet
00:20Avenged Sevenfolds' debut, recorded on a shoestring budget, delivers raw, unpolished metalcore, far removed from their later orchestral metal sound.
00:315. The Cure, Three Imaginary Boys
00:34The Cure's debut Three Imaginary Boys is thin, bland, and personality-free, a misstep far removed from their later gothic masterpieces.
00:434. Blur, Leisure
00:46Blur's debut, Leisure, mixes shoegaze and goth influences with filler, drowning its singles and lacking the cohesive Britpop identity, they later defined.
00:563. Genesis, From Genesis to Revelation
00:59Genesis' hastily assembled debut, a biblical concept album categorized as Christian, offers orchestral folk pop with none of their later prog DNA.
01:092. Judas Priest, Rock-A-Rolla
01:12Judas Priest's debut, Rock-A-Rolla, features blues rock riffs, lacking Halford's iconic scream and twin guitar punch, buried under murky production.
01:231. Pantera Metal Magic
01:26Pantera's debut glam metal album, Metal Magic, showcases spandex-clad, hairspray-obsessed style, a cringeworthy contrast to their later groove metal success.
