These are my favourite concept albums.

No, Dream Theater sucks. They are an utterly overrated, kitschy, unintentionally self-parodic fourth-rate prog metal band with an obnoxious singer, and a crappy concept album with a truly crappy concept worshipped by their pseudo-intellectual fans, and I haven't even mentioned the truly souless "virtuoso" guitarrist and the overrated boring drummer. Their suite "A Change Of Seasons" was not bad, though.

The Mars Volta was slightly better I guess, but their singer also sucks and some tracks were truly lame.

I prefer "shallow commercial pop crap" like ABBA or Duran Duran over this self-parodic progheads.

king diamond-them
queensryche-operation mindcrime(the best)
iron maiden-seventh son of the seventh son
pink floyd-the wall
the who-tommy
savatage-streets:a rock opera
savatage-dead winter dead

[Dr. Rosenpenis]

The Mars Volta is crap. I used to like them kinda. Glad to have gotten over that.

Tell me, what's the concept of Deloused in the comatorium?

[Mujer Libre]

Forgot to add- anything by ISIS. :)

[tambourine_man]

frank sinatra - in the wee small hours
david bowie - ziggy stardust
leonard cohen - songs of love and hate

[Held van Arbeid]

King Diamond - Give me your Soul... Please
Marilyn Manson - Antichrist Superstar
Pink Floyd - The Wall

[praxicoide]

Off the top of my head:

Pink Floyd - Animals

Secret Chiefs 3 - Book of Horizons

Victor Jara - La Poblacion

Nektar - Remember the Future

Quilapayun/Luis Advis - Cantata Santa Maria de Iquique

and all of Opeth's albums, if they can be considered "concept" albums.
