What are some of your favorite "concept" (or "themed") albums? There may have been topics on this already, but who gives a crap. I love albums which have a common theme throughout, and I am hoping somebody can introduce some albums I may have not heard yet.


These are my favorites which I suggest to anyone interested:

The Mars Volta - "De-Loused in the Comatorium"
the Mars Volta - "Frances the Mute"
Porcupine Tree - "Deadwing"
Porcupine Tree - "Fear of a Blank Planet"
Porcupine Tree - "The Incident"
Captain Beyond - "Captain Beyond"
Coheed & Cambria - "Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One"
Fishbone - "Chim Chim's Badass Revenge"
Medeski Martin & Wood - "Zaebos: Book of Angels Vol. 11"
Emerson Lake & Palmer - "Pictures at an Exhibition"
Emerson Lake & Palmer - "Tarkus"
A Perfect Circle - "Thirteenth Step"
Pink Floyd - "Animals"
Pink Floyd - "Dark Side of the Moon"
Pink Floyd - "The Wall"
Johnny Cash - "Songs of Our Soul"
Dream Theater - "Metropolis Part II: Scenes From a Memory"
Queens of the Stone Age - "Songs for the Deaf"
King's X - "Gretchen Goes to Nebraska"
Avishai Cohen - "Continuo"


Share some of your favorites.

I don't know what this is. A band name and album title would help a lot.

It's Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band by the Beatles and Arthur: Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire by the Kinks. Two very good choices. They're classics.

That reminds me. Frank Zappa - We're Only in it for the Money.
