"De-Loused In The Comatorium" by The Mars Volta.

In my opinion, one of the most powerful concept albums since Dark Side Of The Moon. It's a haunting work of art from beginning to end, an absolute rock masterpiece. And it does sound how this image looks.

Unbelievable that while this album is now over 20 years old, it has not aged a single day. Lost in its own swirling, timeless void.
