I don't have all, so I won't vote, although I don't think that any of these could dethrone the mighty A Social Grace.

Sorry, I was talking about Isis. I prefer Entropia over One Hour by the Concrete Lake by a small margin.

Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

This is a very good list! It has to be Riverside for me, what a great band! Following that, I'd go with Entropia from POS because that album was also really surprising to me. It's difficult to compare DT's first album to the other debuts because since they dropped Dominici for Images and words it's kinda like their debut with LaBrie (If that made sense in any way and counted I still would've picked Riverside).

I never considered Kayo Dot a metal band (I would have voted for Choirs of the Eye as well), though I guess you could make a case for the debut. Fixed the Isis option.

From the list id have to say pain of salvation. Entropia is incredible, particularly for a debut.
|
Meh, it's alright. I would take any of the following 3 albums over it any day, but it is quite a groundbreaking album.

To me, The First is Riverside, and the second is Threshold. Two albums is fantastic to me.

Out of Myself was a very nice breath of fresh air to me. S.U.S.A.R and Entropia are my personal runner-ups.

Although DT is my favorite band, I don't listen to / like WDADU that much because of the vocals..so my vote goes to Opeth

Really? Bugger. I meant Panoptican (that had better be the debut or I dont know as much about Isis as I thought) .
