The Only Ones – The Only Ones (1978)
The debut album by The Only Ones, released in 1978, is a striking blend of punk rock energy and sophisticated songwriting. Led by the enigmatic Peter Perrett, the band crafted a sound that defied easy categorization, merging sharp guitar riffs, jangly melodies, and lyrical depth. The album features their most famous track, “Another Girl, Another Planet,” which has since become an iconic anthem of the era. With its infectious hooks and introspective lyrics, the debut showcases The Only Ones' unique ability to balance raw emotion with polished musicianship, making it a standout record in the late '70s music scene.
