Default Concept Album/Rock Opera explanation thread
Here is a thread where we can discuss, ask about, and attempt to explain concept albums.

So, I'm not going to start this thread off by explaining an album, but I am going to request an explanation for the world and general story of Coheed & Cambria's albums if anyone is willing to take on the ambitious task of explaining it.

The best rock operas are the Residents:

Not Available
God in Three Persons
The Mole Show
Animal Lover

All ingenious, brilliant works of music.

I also like Quadraphenia, and even Tommy as cheesy as it is.

Al Pacino = God
