Tactical vote, leaving out as they're safe

Arctic Monkeys
Fleet foxes
Pains of being

1. The Maccabees - Colour It in
2. Cherry Ghost - thirst for romance
3. Vampire weekend - s/t
4. Dogs - turn against this land
5. The last shadow puppets - the age of the understatement

No one appears to have voted for The Maccabees!? Have I got the wrong year?!

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
Rubblebucket - s/t
Love this band, always put them on if I need cheering up, never fail to put a smile on my face and a spring in my step

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.

Every album has an absolute classic on. Once I was an eagle is my favourite. Saw her at Hackney church in 2024, a great new album set followed by a set of the rest of her albums. Amazing show

#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
