Human Drama - The World Inside (1992)
Easily one of the greatest bands performing during the last decade, Human Drama is a must to listen to. With melodic music and meaningful lyrics, Human Drama will quickly charm anyone's musical senses. The World Inside is undoubtedly Human Drama's finest album. Human Drama's musical influences stem from artists such as Joy Division, Lou Reed, Tom Waits, David Bowie, and Leonard Cohen, among others.

I second Sheik Yerbouti, this is classic Zappa although probably not his best album. Great music, a fine selection of some of his most controversial lyrics and of course excellent guitar playing by FZ (especially in the closing track 'Yo Mama'). Also, it's a rare (rare for most musicians, certainly not for Zappa) combination of live+studio recordings, mixed during production.

I suggest Marillion - Script for a Jester's Tear.
Marillion's debut album (and their best, IMO) features some great lyrics by Fish (the title track, and especially Chelsea Monday) and amazingly beautiful music. Essentially all tracks are classics, there are no "fillers" which is quite rare, especially for a debut album (admittedly, the original release includes only 6 tracks and runs at about 46 minutes). From the soft opening lines of "Script...", to the last 3 minutes of "Forgotten Sons" which feature a phenomenal guitar by Steve Rothery, the music, lyrics and performance are perfect. One of the best rock albums of the 80's.
