Can't imagine Lovers by Sleepy Jackson won't make my top 5

Not going to make my top 5 but man what an album this is. Amazing groove by the band and a gorgeous voice.
Robert Flack - First Take

Think I Should Coco will be my number 1 for #5DebutAlbums9599 Supergrass were an underrated band, so tight, great musicianship (with the element of chaos) and brilliant songwriting. Saw them live again last year lots of fun

One I will struggle to leave out of my top 5 #5DebutAlbums9599 Word Gets Around by Stereophonics. Kelly's voice is up there with the best, Stuart Cable RIP one of my favourite heavy hitters, and its great lyrically. They only had 1 good album after this before they went shit and got more popular

Not seen anyone mention this album yet, for #5DebutAlbums9599 with Richard Hawley on guitar and one of the best singers of the 90s Crispin Hunt.
The Sun is Often Out by Longpigs is a brilliant album.

Actually finished my #5DebutAlbums7579 playlist early this time. Got an obvious top 3, and then 14 to pick from for the final 2 spots.

Not listened to this one before and it's already a definite contender for my top 5. The Human League - Reproduction

A top 5 shoe-in for me is an artist I actually met and befriended at hypo-birthing classes when we were both about to have our first children.
Benedict Benjamin, aka Ben Rubinstein, ex of Peggy Sue and Mariners Children.
He's had 3 absolutely brilliant albums since 2016, his debut is Night Songs

Another one I'd forgotten how good it was.
Full of classic sounding songs. Great playing and production.
The Magic Numbers - self titled.

I'd forgotten how much I loved this album.
Passion Pit - Manners

My first gig in my new home town of Brighton and what a show!?!
Freddy Forbidden and Boko Yout.
Boko Yout put out my favourite album of 2025.
The bands were excellent and the crowd were amazing. All the jumping about pushed my step count up to 34k..

Came to an artist in my #5debutAlbums0509 that reminded of how for a time during this period I found lots of new bands via MySpace.
I discovered Kate Nash, Lily Allen, Arctic Monkeys and Little Boots. All of which had great debuts.
Really enjoyed Little Boots videos with the Tenori-on

Probably a lesser known band this time for #5DebutAlbums0509

Vampire Weekend are an obvious one for #5DebutAlbums0509 Their self titled debut is packed with great songs.
They are clearly brilliant songwriters and musicians. Blending afropop, punk, and orchestral chamber music with interesting lyrics.

#5DebutAlbums0509 probably my favourite artist of the last 20 years, but I got into her after the debut, it's good but will be outside my top 5.
Laura Marling - Alas I cannot swim

#5DebutAlbums0509 today's band are one of my favourites and they reformed last year after splitting up in 2017 after 4 brilliant albums.
The debut was great and is a definite contender for my top 5.
The Maccabees - Colour It In.

Today's #5DebutAlbums0509 recommendation. Ladyhawke - s/t
Didn't own this album back then but I was recommended it for these polls by my more dance/electro friends, but I actually know quite a few of the songs.
Some great catchy bangers

I will have lots of recommendations for this period #5DebutAlbums0509 I was 24-28 and playing full time in a band. All I did was play or listen to music.
Everything Is by Nine Black Alps. Heavy 90s grungesque rock with really catchy songs

@richards7370.bsky.social late to the party but I've found my top album of 2025 a few weeks into 2026.
Boko Yout - Gusto. #5Albums25
Going to be my first gig of 2026, and the first gig of my new hometown Brighton.

#5DebutAlbums9094 this was an unexpected one Gillian Gilbert and Stephen Morris from New Order - Other Two. I've only recently come round to NO, I was put off by his voice but I actually think this is better than NO and the Electronic album from this round.
Her voice and the instrumentation is great
