Favorite Concept Album(s)
Jimor:
Pink World by Planet P Project.
Scandanavian War Machine:
Ramona Cordova's The Boy Who Floated Freely
Bastardous Bassist:
Andrew Lloyd Webber? Now, I admit that I've never heard "Jesus Christ Superstar," but every musical that man has ever written has just been him taking a massive dump on music. His requiem inspired a 12-year-old kid to say "That's not a requiem, that's crap." Even children can tell that he can't compose his way out of a wet paper bag.
Anyways, I actually like a lot of the songs off of Blind Guardian's "Nightfall in Middle-Earth." I don't tend to enjoy concept albums, because they tend to sacrifice the quality of a few songs in order to get them to match whatever theme they're shooting for. As such, I feel that it's not as solid an album as what the band tends to turn out when not trying to go for a concept.

I think I am the only person in the world who likes Dream Theater but can't listen to this album. After Rudess joined the band, it all became noodley, pretentious crap. I hear that they seem to be trying to make music again, but I'm having trouble believing that.

I saw them play this straight through live, followed by Mindrcrime II, which was completely unmemorable. The original was tons of fun and I like most of the songs off of it.
look out! Ninjas!:
Meat Loaf's Bat out of Hell
Invammocon:
Space Crackers by Clawjob. I'm not sure if it's a concept album. It feels more like a soundtrack to a musical than anything but it tells a story and all so I guess it counts.
