In doing a bit of research, I found a number of sites with pretty good lists of one-album wonders:
- Rocksound - never heard of any of their choices
- NPR - I had no idea Milla Jovovich, but I want to track down her album soon. Sounds good.
- SitarHero - I've head some of these albums. Good choices
- Flavorwire - Interesting list...makes me want to track down The La's and The Avalanches.
- 411mania - First list with Arrested Development on it, but I'm starting to get some overlap with the albums. Why are The Cars just off the list?
- Alan Cross - Again, overlap developing (Lauryn Hill, La's, Buckley, Death From Above 1979, Sex Pistols, Derek & the Dominos)
- IGN - Overlap continues
- Paste Magazine - Same overlap...
- Treblezine - I don't know any of these albums.
Heck of a blog entry there, ChemGuy.
Good call...

Since I Left You by The Avalanches is absolutely fantastic, one of my most listened to albums of all-time. That La's record is fine too, but There She Goes is definitely the standout. Cheeriest song about heroin addiction ever?
I'll check out The Avalanches. "There She Goes" is a classic.
