| | Muse's Muse Songwriting Message Board -> Concept albums / rock operas |
| | I think concept albums are wonderful peices of art, with well-written lyrics and music. | | | The closest I've gone to a 'concept album' was writing one lyric for a country-western "musical" for an Ultimate Challenge. | | | For those of you not in the know, the difference between a rock opera and concept album is that a concept album is a collection of songs that deal with a similar theme. |

| | Vodkapundit - The Five Greatest Concept Albums Ever, Period |
| | I think the definition of a concept album is this: Rather than use the vinyl to record 8 to 12 seperate concepts, the songs,(even if they have a common theme), the band uses the vinyl as the canvas for their single concept. | | | The concept is all musical and not lyrical at all. | | | If "concept album" simply means that all the songs share some theme, then *every* soundtrack is a concept album, and I'm sure it would be easy to name a boy band album where every track was about how much they love some girl. |

| | Add that to the fact that they tarnished what is considered to be the first concept album of all time, one of the best albums ever made, and the name of the best rock band in history. | | | Not only is this album bad, but it's a double disappointment, considering the fact that this was supposed to be the "comeback" album for Aerosmith. | | | It was this album, and the film from which it was taken, that helped drive a stake through the heart of the film musical for a long, long time. |

| | Pitchfork: Top 100 Albums of the 1970s |
| | Physical Graffiti is not the hardest or most influential Zeppelin album. | | | The live tracks are mostly improvised, which is one reason Bill Bruford renamed the album "Braless and Slightly Slack". | | | But it's a lovely, charming album from the dadaist jaunt of "Backwater" to its tranquil second side, whose mood and texture seems to tear a page from Eno's 1977-78 David Bowie Album Construction Playbook, yet rectifies the divide between his pop and ambient impulses. |

| | HFBoards - Concept Albums (rock) |
| | Certainly a great, great album, but there isn't even a unifying theme, besides drug use, but there are plenty of albums that centered around drug use without being concept albums. | | | U2 made some great albums, but never a concept album. | | | Excellent call on these, but Obsolete is the consummate concept album after The Wall, Tommy, and Pepper, IMO. |

| | The Top 40 Albums of 2004 - Article - Stylus Magazine |
| | If Franz Ferdinand's debut album is the most unanimously acclaimed rock album to achieve mainstream success since the first Strokes album, it has less to do with the album's strengths and more to do with the album's lack of weaknesses. | | | Over 35 writers lists were turned in and more than 400 albums were tallied, and we’re left with 40 albums that spoke the most deeply to our collective taste this year. | | | Lil Jon is the real star, however, and this album finds him delving into the depths of southern dance music and subsequently surfacing with not just his own best work of the year, but one of the best albums of 2004. |

| | Donna Summer's concept LPs like "Once Upon a Time" were wonderful. | | | What I meant was...I didn't care for the concept albums based on classic literary works; The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Wuthering Heights, and yes, even Romeo and Juliet. | | | Not that I didn't like some of the songs (especially "Love Attack") --just that the idea of retelling a classic work of fiction to a disco beat seemed rather absurd and trivial. |
