I am not sure if the Rocky Horror Picture Show would count as a rock opera or not, since it started out as a musical, but it would come close to falling into the genre at least. I think one of the most interesting parts for that band is that they all started off doing Broadway musicals and then decided to make Bat Out of Hell as a side project. It was very interesting hearing about the dedication it took to get the album signed by a record label. I was watching a documentary about the first album not too long ago. Meat Loaf has had all three Bat Out of Hell albums, though.
Some bands may put out a couple operas during their career, but it isn't what they are typically known for.
He is the only person that I can think of right now who has basically made an entire career off of rock operas. I can't believe no one has mentioned Meat Loaf yet.
