I need some suggestions of great debut albums by bands similar to:

 

Coldplay

Radiohead

The Frames

Snow Patrol

Keane

 

 

So please make suggestions so I can choose a good one. It has to be one I've never heard (though if I've heard one or two songs it's okay.)

 

 

Thanks:)

Two awesome debuts from last year (although they're not really like the bands you mentioned... but they rock)

 

Vampire Weekend - Vampire Weekend

 

MGMT - Oracular Spectacular (you could write pages on the title alone!)

Really Real For FOrever-The Billionaires

Two awesome debuts from last year (although they're not really like the bands you mentioned... but they rock)

 

Vampire Weekend - Vampire Weekend

 

MGMT - Oracular Spectacular (you could write pages on the title alone!)

 

exactly the two that i would choose. add to that list Fleet Foxes S/T and Santogold also S/T.

 

a great australian album would be Frogstomp by Silverchair. made when the 3 members were only 15yrs old the album went Gold in america and the band toured with some of the biggest name in music at the time. 14years on the band are still making great music and topping the chart.

I would definitely consider Vampire Weekend/Fleet Foxes/MGMT as well... although, if you're looking for something a little more undiscovered, try Faded Paper Figure's debut album, "Dynamo". :D

Uh, off the top of my head...

 

Hot Fuss - The Killers.

Stars Of CCTV - Hard-Fi.
