Here's a few...
Pearl Jam - Ten
So far, a classic that they haven't topped
Violent Femmes - Self Titled
Hallowed Ground is also good, but not better
Sevendust - Self Titled
They get worse with each new album, aka the "Pearl Jam Effect"

Wait until you realise that Yanks spell "realise" with a "z" (that would be pronounced "zee" in American, not "zed").
Here's a few others, all eponymous:
Led Zeppelin
Julien Clerc
Antony and the Johnsons

Well, I don't know, it took until the fourth page of this thread before anyone mentioned Kate Bush ("The Kick Inside") and nobody's previously mentioned Suzanne Vega's eponymous debut album.
And, I know I'll be hooted at for this, but what about Jean-Michel Jarre's debut "Oxygene"? All went downhill after that.
