[kaoskid]

There may be a thread for this already, but concept albums are totally epic. :viking:

My favorites are:
American Idiot
Year Zero
The Black Parade
Razia's Shadow: A Musical
21st Century Breakdown

anybody else got any?

[Genuma]

oh god Razia's Shadow. That's when I left AP for a while when that viral shit storm started.

[Alex!]

I would consider Dog Problems by The Format a form of a concept album. So I pick that.

[thespearkid]

there have to be at least 20 threads for this.

[thesafeword]

Razia's Shadow takes the load of Wonderland in the face like a little bitch.

[michelle182]

Anything by Coheed.

[Bobmoko]

21st Century Breakdown for sure.

[wtfmates]

The Antlers - Hospice

It's a concept album about a man taking care of a mentally and physically ill woman. It's amazing.

I've heard about this album a few times but haven't checked it out yet. This concept sounds great.

hey, it's probably in my top ten favorite concept albums and it's definitely my favorite pop-punk album ever.

oh, i say it plenty. it's just that everyone in there is saying stuff like that and i prefer discussion to group worship. i really find the separation between my appreciation for ...is a real boy and my disdain for max bemis to be interesting.

[kaoskid]

Husker Du - Zen Arcade
Mastodon - Leviathan
Nine Inch Nails - Year Zero

Wow. I cannot believe I forgot Year Zero.

I agree, I thought of that too!

[Regards]

Despite a lot of people not enjoy Zao's later work, The Funeral Of God was an interesting concept.

[SLoT]

I really dig Brian Wilson's 'Lucky Old Sun' album.

[JoshuaFiedler]

Despite a lot of people not enjoy Zao's later work, The Funeral Of God was an interesting concept.
That was a good concept....

Plus, how are you all leaving out Pink Floyd's "The Wall"? Enough with this Pedro the Lion shit. Haha.

[briewer]

The Streets- A Grand Don't Come For Free
Fiery Furnaces- Blueberry Boat
Liars- Drum's Not Dead

[bard]

came in here to say The Antlers and Zao, but surprisingly they were already mentioned

[cowlord]

underclass hero - sum 41!!!!


....I hope you didnt' think I was serious.

[MattDennis]

That was a good concept....

Plus, how are you all leaving out Pink Floyd's "The Wall"? Enough with this Pedro the Lion shit. Haha.

Haha this!
But if you're going to throw out The Wall you have to mention Dark Side of the Moon as well.

[wtfmates]

I've heard about this album a few times but haven't checked it out yet. This concept sounds great.

It really is a great concept album. Depressing, but very good.

I'm pathetic. Since I first heard it, I've been seizing every opportunity to plug this band.

[IWasHerHorse]

Mastodon - Leviathan, and Blood Mountain
Coheed and Cambria - Second Stage, and In Keeping Secrets
Dredg - El Cielo
Murder by Death - Who Will Survive and What Will Be Left of Them
The Mars Volta - De-loused, and Frances

[wtfmates]

i used to really like boys night out's trainwreck. haha wow.

pedro the lion's control and winners never quit are legit.

Oh, shit, yes. I forgot about Trainwreck. I loved that album when it came out a few years ago. Played it constantly.

And I'll second the Murder by Death recommendation.

[briewer]

Mastodon - Leviathan, and Blood Mountain
Coheed and Cambria - Second Stage, and In Keeping Secrets
Dredg - El Cielo
Murder by Death - Who Will Survive and What Will Be Left of Them
The Mars Volta - De-loused, and Frances
I always feel like I'm the only person that really likes this album.

[JoshuaFiedler]

Haha this!

Other than the actual recording, I've always thought Dark Side is over rated... Although I know I'm one of the only people in the world to think this.

[fimiani91]

Neutral Milk Hotel - In an Aeroplane Over the Sea
Green Day - American Idiot
The Antlers - Hospice
Pink Floyd - The Wall
Forgive Durden - Razia's Shadow

The Beatles - Sgt Pepper
Of Montreal - Skeletal Lamping
The Kinks - Are the Village Green

[xJesusFreakx]

Interesting concept or not, I just don't like that album. Sometimes I feel like I'm in the minority, but The Fear is What Keeps Us Here is probably my favorite of their albums.

Oh, and I love your avatar. David Crowder is the man.

It really is a great concept album. Depressing, but very good.

I'm pathetic. Since I first heard it, I've been seizing every opportunity to plug this band.

Ha, nothing wrong with constant plugs. Could be worse. You could be plugging your own band, lol. Yeah, I guess I need to just get that CD already. Not sure why I haven't yet.

[thespearkid]

That was a good concept....

Plus, how are you all leaving out Pink Floyd's "The Wall"? Enough with this Pedro the Lion shit. Haha.
bores me to tears.

[Onermedboxer]

The Antlers - Hospice

It's a concept album about a man taking care of a mentally and physically ill woman. It's amazing.

I'm sure this is a fantastic album, but that's the most boring concept I've ever heard.

The only concept album I ever really listen to is Save the World by Supermayer, in which Techno producers Michael Mayer and Superpitcher team up to fight monsters or something ridiculous like that. It makes for a fun live show.

[liar23]

Sam's Town?

EDIT: anything by the Hold Steady?

[Young Machetes]

I loved DD,G's Worse Than A Fairy Tale.

[IWasHerHorse]

I always feel like I'm the only person that really likes this album.

It's such a good album, by far my favorite by them.

[fimiani91]

I forgot about Keiza...
