Best Concept CD

[PlatypusJesus]

What's the best concept cd ever. I can't think of many at the moment, but of the ones I can think of, I would say Dreaming Neon Black and Scenes from a Memory.

 

[Chromatose]

the best one ever? hmm, tough call, I've got quite a fondness for concept albums, but at the moment I'll have to say:

NIN - The Downward Spiral

 

[Nevermore26]

Those two are great!

Some others:
Queensryche- Operation: Mindcrime
Savatage- Streets
Deceased- Fearless Undead Machines
Iron Maiden- Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son
Rush- 2112
Amorphis- Elegy
Blind Guardian- Nightfall In Middle Earth
Helloween- Keeper 1 & 2
Jag Panzer- Thane To The Throne
King Diamond- Them
King Diamond- House Of God
Macabre- Dahmer
W.A.S.P.- The Crimson Idol

That's all I can think of right now, & I love all of 'em!

Scenes from a memory.
not for the story, but its the music.

 

[Pilgrim]

Pain of Salvation-Remedy Lane or The Perfect Element

 

[Skreemqueen]

I like DNB, and also Beethovan's Last Night by Trans Siberian Orchestra, which I know isn't really technically metal, but it's realted to Savatage.

 

[REBIRTH]

The Pimp sez:

DNB and light of day, day of darkness are the best ones mentioned so far. theres some others that i wasnt aware were concept albums. and i suspect they might not be. either way, DNB and LODDOD rule.
