Merzbow's complete discography.

I'm pretty sure if this was made into a rock opera, it would just be hours of BDSM sex coupled with Japanese occult oddities. I mean, it would be if Merzbow had his way.

I really wish people would appreciate symbolism a bit more.

I do agree that this could potentially have some dire ramifications in regards to purple drank.

Care to elaborate a tad or are you being deliberately obtuse?

Concept albums are awesome!

A concept album and a rock opera are not the same thing and I hardly think every (or even many) concept albums would translate to dramatic performance, particularly albums that focus less on story and more on an abstract theme.

Frantically wiking whether critical opinion considers Bat Out Of Hell as a concept album or Rock Opera so that I don't look stupid.

It's probably both, like Operation:Mindcrime or some shit.

Oh god what is it with these Rock Operas and their terrible sequels.

Actually I really regret having missed seeing both Mindcrimes  performed together because I'm sure it would have been ridiculous but holy fuck I love ridiciulous shit.

... well, there is a DVD ...

I know, poor substitute but certainly the first Mindcrime is displayed wonderfully.

The live show of Skeletal Lamping pretty much already takes care of this.
