Looks like not everyone has understood the question...

There’s a few bands who have only released one good album, but seeing as that wasn’t the question , I’ll go with Temple of the Dog.

Wish The Las had been able to keep it together. Love the debut album.

A couple from the 00's. Larrikin Love's debut album was brilliant but never followed up. The other that springs to mind was a lad called Matthew Jay. His debut album was decent and a lot of promise there but unfortunately he passed away before he could follow it up

Was I the only person who didn't like The Las.
Was given a promo copy of there she goes when it was first released. Listened to it once and gave it away. One of my most hated songs ever along with The Proclaimers I'm gonna be.

There's loads who had more than one album but shouldn't have bothered with a second one. Spandau Ballet, Tears for Fears and The Artic Monkeys spring to mind.

Pretty sure they had more than one album?

I thought the point of the tread was artists who could never replicate the standard of an album. Seems I misunderstood.

No worries, that would be a long list!

Operation Ivy
Lauryn Hill
Young Marble Giants
Minor Threat

Agree with Minor Threat... (they had a couple of decent EPs too).

Would you class 'Operation Ivy' as a classic? I'm a huge Rancid fan... But I'm always a bit 'hmmm' when it comes to Operation Ivy.

(Btw - Have you ever listened to Common Rider?)

I think Operation Ivys Energy is definitely a classic... It's influenced heaps of punk bands, especially in the states. And Out Come The Wolves for me is also a classic.

Common Rider

Girls at Our Best - Pleasure.........still play it today.

That's where The Wedding Present got "Getting Nowhere Fast" from isn't it?

 

[Yesterdays_Jam]

Elastica for me...brilliant album

 

[Zoophonic]

Oasis - Definitely Maybe.

Definitely NOT a one album wonder. No maybe about it.
