Concept albums don't get much better than this. Too often the artist let the music suffer in order to complete the storyline. Queensryche - almost fell into this trap, but they may be a result of having just heard the exhausting epic Suite Sister Mary. Like the Shadow Gallery concept - the ending is very interesting. Like all good concept albums the whole album is worthy of listening to. However stand outs for me are: Suite Sister Mary, Spreading The Disease and Eyes Of A Stranger.

Fantastic concept album with an intricate plot that never wavers. Its wonderfully thought out, planned, and executed. Still as intriguing to listen to it today as it was back then. The amazing thing is that the songs are great individually as well as part of the whole.

I'm not a fan of hair, prog, or power metal, but I can't deny how great this album is. Geoff Tate's vocals are amazing all throughout the disc, and the plot is nearly unmatched for a concept album.
