Hi guys!
I recently made a video of the top 25 most Epic Progressive/Symphonic Metal Albums from 1999-2016 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syqKYhFcYqQ) and I wanted to ask you guys to recommend me other epic prog/symphonic metal albums to listen to. I like prog metal that leans more to the cinematic/epic side than technical. I love albums that are grandiose, varied and full of emotion (maybe that's why I love musicals too). Thanks in advance!

You picked some killer albums in your list already. It'll be hard to choose some that rival those, but I will.
Adagio - Underworld (2003)
Angra - Temples of Shadows (2004)
Ayreon - The Human Equation (2004)
Lost in Thought - Opus Arise (2011)
Pagan's Mind - Celestial Entrance (2002)
Shadow Gallery - Room V (2005)
Sieges Even - The Art of Navigating By The Stars (2005) - This isn't as epic sounding but it's one of the best, and most underrated, prog metal albums ever.
Other albums from those bands are also excellent choices.
