Most of the songs on Nick Cave's album Murder Ballads.

Night Fall in Middle Earth is basically a Silmarillion concept album.

A few of my favorites. The ones in bold tell stories in basically the literary sense; the ones not in bold are more like personal anecdotes being told by the singer, but they do have narrative arcs.

Josh Ritter - The Temptation Of Adam, Another New World, The Curse

The Tragically Hip - 38 Years Old

Dessa - Children's Work

The Mountain Goats - Pale Green Things

Sarah Harmer - Dogs and Thunder, Westray

Vanessa Carlton - White Houses

Regina Spektor - Samson

Marc Cohn - Walking In Memphis

Ayreon

each album basically tells a story.
I especially love "the human equation" and "01011001"
