Top 15 One-Album Wonders

As music fans, we hear a lot of new music all the time from promising new artists. Some national debut albums really leave a mark on us, getting us pumped for the artist's career ahead. Sadly, some of these artists never even make it to album number two before they stop making music, break up, or just disappear.

This list is a countdown of our top 15 "One-Album Wonders" -- bands that released just one album before disappearing from the map for one reason or another -- leaving us to wonder what could have been with album number 2.

Album Cover
#6. The Send
Cosmos

Release Year: 2007



Sometime after Falling Up's sophomore effort, Dawn Escapes, guitarist Joe Kisselburgh left the band to head his own solo act dubbed The Send. While Falling Up went on to develop stranger music and lyrics than Dawn Escapes, The Send's only album, Cosmos, featured soft, alternative, pop rock melodies. Although still solid and enjoyable, the rockier songs lacked total refinement. However, the joy in the album was the lovely ballads featuring Kisselburgh's passionate vocals and earnest songwriting. Cosmos was not only a slam dunk for Falling Up fans at the time, but it was still accessible for those seeking a strong, deeper pop rock release. Given another album, the Send might have fully matured and become as renowned as Falling Up, but, sadly, that second album never came.
