The best debut albums - SteveO - 03-06-2014
I am familiar with The Gathering's Mandylion album ! Goth, metal, progressive , hard to pin it to a specific genre!
I will have to check out Perfect Circle !!!! (heard of them a lot but with so much dam music available they slipped through the cracks...lol).

The Gathering probably evolved more than any other metal band ever. They were a pretty straight forward death metal band before Anneke joined, and they totally changed. Then after Nighttime Birds (good, a lot like Mandylion, not as good in my opinion though) they really took an atmospheric turn. How To Measure a Planet? and If_then_else are fantastic, and then after that, I don't even know what you'd call their Souvenirs album. It's just simply different. A lot of thick-skulled metal heads were furious with their transformations, ESPECIALLY after Souvenirs. After Anneke left, they've made some good music from what I've heard with Silje, but I think I'm just majorly biased for Anneke.
A Perfect Circle has evolved a lot too, even though they've only released 3 studio albums with original content. After the heavy, flowing Mer De Noms they released Thirteenth Step, which really allows Billy's songwriting to shine through. eMOTIVE has a lot of covers on it, but it's not what you think. Most of the time I don't really like the idea of covers because most artists just can't step outside the creative threshold of the original artist, but they really totally transformed some songs that I would never want anyone to try and touch, and I ended up loving it. When the Levee Breaks, Imagine, Peace Love and Understanding... Some sensitive subjects, but APC did great I think.

I have not listened to Asia in ages SteveO, but their debut was brilliant. I have to say that all of their subsequent work just did not measure up. They are trading on their name and have been for years. A licence to print concert tickets.......

OTOH, the opposite sort of list is very small. Those who had the worst debuts were
mostly never heard from again , and with good reason ! heh heh heh
