What about Rush'a 2112?

Kinda cheesy I suppose. Kinda reminds me of Kurt Vonnegut's 'Harrison Bergeron'. A completely equal society that discourages individual achievement or expression. Perhaps a critique of communism/socialism. That whole Ayn Rand kinda thing.

Noone's mentioned 'The Wall'. I don't really like that album musically but it might be a case of a half-decent concept. Better than 'Tommy' anyways.
