This is a list of debut albums from 2007-2009 that I believe are the first from bands that will leave a legacy of great albums in their wake. It's a short list, and I chose 2007 because I wanted to pick bands that have had at most only 1 album since the debut.

1.In Mourning - Shrouded Divine

2.Irminsul - Irminsul

3.Griftegård - Solemn, Sacred, Severe

4.Kalisia - Cybion

5.Baroness - Red Album
