Lyrical storyline of the folklore concept of the seventh son of a seventh son. Great album, thought it was going to be Adrian's last with them..

Edit: fuck i'm oldschool

Sadly, haven't found that many great concept albums recently... Into the electric castle only had a few listenable tracks, others are quite meh although some songs have good parts. Operation: Mindcrime is pretty good, but then again there are only a few songs that are listenable on their own. Dream Theater: Scenes from a memory part 2 or whatever is a good album, but that only has like one good song solo as well.

Adramelch - Broken History is a nice concept album, although their Irae Melanox(I am not sure if this is a concept album though, probably not... known for having abysmal quality) remade with even a remotely semi-moderate sound quality would destroy that... Hibria - Defying The Rules is a nice speedy powermetal concept album, but that still lacks something... Maybe I should try to stop hating death vocals and try some death metal concept albums. Normally the vocals just make the songs entirely unbearable for me, though.
League of Legends EU West, Platinum III | Yousei Teikoku is the best thing that has ever happened to music.

Queensryche - Operation: Mindcrime duh
Dream Theater - Scenes From a Memory
Disillusion - Back to Times of Splendor
Green Carnation - Light of Day, Day of Darkness

and to balance out the disproportionate amount of Be love in this thread:
Pain of Salvation - One Hour by the Concrete Lake, The Perfect Element pt. 1, and Remedy Lane
That wasn't any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.

I find the concept and music on Mastodon's Leviathan to be stronger than Crack the Skye. However, those two albums are my favorite of their discography.

I would also have to go with Opeth's Still Life for favorite metal concept album. Of course, unlike other musical styles metal tends to tell more stories or deal with concepts such as fantasy, war, religions/mythology, etc.

Most of them are already mentioned here, but the first concept albums that comes into mind are:

Dream Theater - Scenes from a memory
Dream Theater - Six degrees of inner turbulence
Ayreon - The Human Equation
Aina - Days of rising doom

Great albums all of them, and truly recommended. There is a lot more I like, especially with Ayreon ( of which every album is a concept album ), but these are the ones I can think of right now.

It's my favorite Dream Theater album, though from what I've seen, many people disagree haha.
