Favorite Concept Album(s)
spoon_of_grimbo:
i'd agree that morningrise and still life are awesome (those two plus blackwater park collectively make up their best IMO), but i just can't get into orchid or my arms your hearse though. one things for sure, they should never have fired the bassist who played on morningrise, his lines were beautiful!
negative creep:
Yeah I ordered the album about 30 seconds after my post last night. Thanks!
Mr. Doctor:
Not a problem dude, I hope you'll enjoy it !!! :-)

Orchid and My Arms Your Hearse are way darker and have a more "brutal" approach than the others and The influences of Death and Black are more clear if you hear Mikaels haunting growls almost black-like on Orchid and the "fuzzy" production of My Arms. So I see what you mean. Then again, One of the things I like about Orchid is that it's their debut but it's incredibly well done, they knew what they wanted to do since their very first beginning. And that flower is beautiful!
Mendez is a great dude, Still Life has some sweet bass, but yeah... Everytime I see "bass" and "Opeth" in the same sentence... I think about Morningrise.
RedLion:
Does Jackson Browne's "Running on Empty" count? It's a loose concept album I guess..but the first 3 songs are some of my favorite songs. Ever. Period.
BeoPuppy:
Just figured out I forgot Misplace Childhood.
Also, I second the Haggard mention. Haggard are awesome.
