Last Record Standing | Debut Albums Bracket Vol. 1

from Personal Records

We put 16 legendary debut albums in a bracket to determine which one will be the Last Record Standing. In the first volume of our new album tournament, Scott and Chris go matchup by matchup, debating these classic debuts: The Cars vs. Van Halen The Go-Go's vs. Duran Duran Rage Against the Machine vs. Stone Temple Pilots Nirvana vs. Pearl Jam Oasis vs. Weezer Silverchair vs. Foo Fighters Arcade Fire vs. The Killers Interpol vs. The Strokes Some choices are easy. Others require eliminating albums we love. By the end, only one debut record remains. Watch the tournament unfold, then tell us in the comments: What would your Final Four be, and which debut album would win your bracket? Personal Records with Scott and Chris is a music podcast for people who still care way too much about records.
