The Devin Townsend Band
Infinity

Bad Devil
Buy from: iTunes | Amazon
The Best Concept Album of All Time for me... Infinity is the musical testimony of a man who was almost dead (he thought about suicide...) and who made a happy record to sing the Life! A MASTERPIECE!!!
2.

Judas Priest
Nostradamus
As a French man, I heard about Nostradamus but not in details... JUDAS PRIEST taught me his story in a great musical way!
3.

Metallica
St. Anger

Purify
Buy from: iTunes | Amazon
Yes, I think it's a concept album... It talks about the resurrection of the greatest band of all time who made a powerful and violent record with great and joyful feelings.
4.

The Devin Townsend Band
Ocean Machine: Biotech

Voices In The Fan
Buy from: iTunes | Amazon
Devin Townsend again... Yes, he's so good!!! Ocean Machine is a travel through elements of Earth... 74 min. of happiness!
5.

Nine Inch Nails
Year Zero

Beginning Of The..
Buy from: iTunes | Amazon
Trent reznor and his vision of an apocalyptic and tyrannic world, dominated by fear, intolerance, religion in its darkest ways... A very smart record!
