Least Favorite Debut From Your Favorite Bands

Just off the top of my head:

Shadow Gallery-s/t (one of my all time favorites and I've listened to that three times in over 7 years-just doesn't do much for me)

Iron Maiden-s/t (I like everything Maiden has done but for some reason I don't like the debut near as much as the rest of them-still infinitly better than Virtual XI, my least favorite Maiden disc)

Iced Earth-s/t (haven't heard it in years but I remember not liking it as much as the others-I might change my mind when I get the box set either at the end of this year or the begginng of next and hear it again)

The Angels - S/T

The Angels are my favorite band and it took me years to round up the debut at a reasonable price ($25). Then when I spun it, I discovered there was only one song on there that I really like (Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again).

Can't think of any really, though I suppose Maiden will do, the first two are throw outs!

Rithie Blackmore's Rainbow. This band didn't really hit their stride until Long Live Rock and Roll, imho. Also, Blizzard of Ozz. I have always liked Diary and Bark much more than Blizzard. I guess those songs are just overplayed to my ears. Peace.

I second that - That album is really a steaming turd

it kicks the hell out of United Abominations

The first Rage album and the Avenger stuff is pretty.... sluggish and also lame lyrically in a lot of parts...the second one was a huge step up in quality....although, it's always good to hear 'Suicide' live...

Pagan's Mind - Infinity Divine...I can remember one or two songs at most from it.....would be cool to hear speedier stuff from them again, but not like this..

Dark Moor - Shadowland.... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....
uhhhhh... there's the potential.. but the drums sound beyond horrible...Elisa is a little rough..and what is up with the title 'Walhalla'? W?

'Killing' is weak and drug fueled... but yes.. I don't really want to smash the CD into pieces the way I do with most of 'UA'.... and 'Killing' has 'Rattlehead'.

Lonesome Crow and Shades of Deep Purple are nothing like the albums I grew up listening to from those respective bands. But, I don't blame them, it was early in their careers and a different time for Heavy Metal. Peace.

I second that. Metal Magic was pure bollocks.

I like it a lot.

I was never fond of the Scorpions first album.

As much as I love Saxon, I never got into their debut album like I did the rest of their catalog, although I do like it.

The first couple UFO albums were a bit weird as well.

This isn't a knock by any means, but Ultimatum's first album doesn't hold a candle to the others , IMO.

I didn't care for Scorpions-Lonesome Crow I was really excited when I was kid because Michael Schenker plays on it, and I was disappointed

Deep Purple-Shades of Deep Purple-not what I was customed to by DP but it has grown on me over the years

Alice Cooper-Pretties for You- again not what I was customed to but it has also grown on me

David Bowie-s/t- too folky and very dated

Megadeth's killing i just could not get into.. Shame really...

Well, compared with the rest of Priest's 70's output, Rocka Rolla. Just being honest. I don't dislike it, but it can't compete.

FATES WARNING - Night on Brocken
HELSTAR - Burning Star
JUDAS PRIEST - Rocka Rolla
