Most Epic Album?

Mr. bungle - self titled

I heard this the 1st day it came out and for me it set the bar that no other band has come close too. I remember thinking "but how could they pull this stuff off live?"...then I saw them in 91... they pulled it off and a lot more, I was blown away! Never looked at music the same way again.
 
Helloween Keeper of The Seven Keys 1 and 2
Gamma Ray land of the free
Judas Priest Stained Class
Iron Maiden Somewhere in Time, Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
Opeth Blackwater Park

^
Opeth - Blackwater Park
Dream Theater - Octavarium and Scenes From a Memory
 
Sabaton's entire Discography
...And Justice for All
Annihilation of the Wicked (Even if Karl hates me)
Tenacious D (Probably the most epic CD)
Itzhak Perlman doing Paganini's 24 Caprices
The Apostasy
Primal Fear's Before the Devil Knows You're Dead.
 
I still think Master Of Puppets is truly epic. The album as a whole is epic, non singularly. But umm... jeez epic is hard to define. A few for me would be, Karnivool - Themata. It's pretty darn good. Bloodbath - NMF to me is epic, in its own way :)
 
Another vote for Night is The New Day - Katatonia

Seriously my favorite metal album of the previous decade.
I've been listening to it every single week since I bought it and I'm not sick of it, it's just that good
 
Dissection - Storm of the lights bane
Deathspell Omega - Si monumentum requires circumspice
Bolt Thrower - The IVth Crusade
Celtic Frost - Monothiest
High on Fire - Death is this communion
In Flames - The Jester race
Mastodon - Pretty much everything they have ever done
Behemoth - Demigod onwards
 
I was just listening to Sad Wings of Destiny the other night and was amazed how great it sounds through headphones.

Another vote for MoP also.

And John Coltrane's A Love Supreme - truly epic.
 
Yeah, you know, I took a break on "Night is..." for a couple of months so I wouldn't overdo it, but just came back to it a couple of days ago, and yeah, absolutely fantastic, far and above my favorite Katatonia album :rock: +1 for The Apostasy as well :rock:
