I'm going to have to go with Queensrÿche's Operation: Mindcrime. One of the best thought out "concept" albums ever made. Tight songwriting, excellent lyrics, and Geoff Tate's vocals are outstanding (not to mention Michael Kamen's orchestral contributions.) 20+ years later, the theme is still 100% relevant to society.

Although Appetite for Destruction really is a seminal album because it was just such a gut punch to the pretty-boy hair metal genre. The first time I heard “Welcome to the Jungle” left me a little stunned...I’d never heard anything that hard on the radio before. Then I got the album on cassette and proceeded to wear it out blasting it in my car.
You bring up a great point about Operation: Mindcrime though. It’s really underrated IMO.
