Hell yeah

Also:

La Dispute - The Last Lost Continent (not metal but best song ever pretty much)
Jethro Tull - Thick as Brick (first half. Second half falters a bit)
Zebulon Pike - Structure of the Black Stallion (actually pretty much all their songs are over 10 minutes and incredibly fucking awesome)
Canvas Solaris - Luminessence
Tool - 10,000 Days
Deadsea - Frozen Rivers (MORE PEOPLE SHOULD LISTEN TO THESE DUDES. REVIEW IT AND SHIT)

Dream Theater's Octavarium is worth a mention. Some geniunely heartbreaking tunes therein, and probably their last great song. And I second WIITR's Diadem Of 12 Stars and Marillion's Ocean Cloud.
