5 stars This is, by any and all means... possibly the best studio album ever created. However, this may only be so for hardcore prog rockers and headbangers alike. Instead of going on a little epic tale depicting character development in an ongoing 20 minute song, this entire album gives a story that is incredibly deep and powerful. Imagine a movie/story that you just love so much, but not just any movie/story. Imagine one that is soo deep, that every time you listen to it, whether it be your first, or your last, you find and discover something new. That's what Scenes From a Memory is. It's one long story that is told in many different pieces, and you sort of put them together to make the big picture. All the while, you're rockin out to some of the most jammin' riffs ever created (such as in "Home" and the almighty "Dance of Eternity." It may take a while to get used to listening to, but once you find the high points in each song, everything seems to fall in place. If you buy this epic adventurous masterpiece and ur a heavy prog rocker, you won't be sorry.
