Of all 8 of their albums, those two (6DOIT and SFAM) are their 'concept' albums. Although I own them, and one of my favorite songs is on SFAM (Home is a WICKED song), the real winners are TOT, Octavarium and their earlier material, IMHO.
Hitting up Amazon and listening to the samples isn't a bad idea, but sometimes they really choose bad parts to sample.

Trying to find Pain of Salvation as I type.
