I just played American Idiot and The Wall from start to finish. For me, both are absolute masterpieces. I wouldn’t be able to say which is better than the other.

What’s the best concept album for you?

That is a really, really good pair.

21st Century Breakdown also does a good job, it's a little different but it's got the same album story.

Deltron 3030 is a stellar album about an intergalactic rapper. It's produced by Del tha Funkee Homosapien and Dan the Automator, seriously, killer.

And before the Flobots came, there was Johnny 5 and Yak who made Onomatopoeia, another stellar album. It's an underground 2000's set though, so it gets gritty. But it's very real and so well composed. That of course led to Flobots Fight with Tools, which may just be the best political album of all time.
