Well, I'm a wierdo who processes vocals as musical instruments and often don't pay any attention to lyrics, so I don't literally know all the words to any album - unless you count the Star Wars & Empire Strikes Back soundtracks that have no spoken words. But if you're talking "have listened to the album front to back so much that I could accurately pretend to sing along with every word", I'd easily go with:

Beastie Boys - License to Ill (@moxie; very first album I thought of, too. )
System of a Down - Toxicity
A Tribe Called Quest - Midnight Marauders

 

[BadMotoWeazal]

Led Zeppelin - One

Kiss - Destroyer

Nirvana – Bleach

 

[Nosferatu]

Kiss - Destroyer

For me it would be Lick it up!

Master of Puppets - Metallica

Louder Than Bombs - The Smiths

Masters of Reality - Black Sabbath

I don't even know the lyrics to single songs, let alone full LP's.

Very few songs ever have lyrics worth paying much attention to. I'm not trying to sound negative or edgy but it's just how vocal music works. I suppose perhaps the singer/songwriter/storyteller might break that mold but most pop music has lyrics that just fill in the rhythm, so to speak.
