5 stars Well, i'm quite unsure wether you should call "Scenes from a Memory" a "concept album" or a "rock opera". What's sure is that:

1) The plot behind the album is greatly intuitive 2) The album flows fantastically scene-by-scene / song-by-song 3) The music is exceptional from a compositive standpoint and amazingly played

This are the main 3 reasons why i consider Metropolis part II a Must-Have for any prog-listener and,more in general, any fan of hi-quality music. Now, the metal-oriented sound may discourage many classic-tasted listeners, but being the progger itself more open to sound innovations than any other kind of listeners, it would be a pity to discard this album just because it sounds heavier. Listen carefully, and anjoy the trip!
