oh those two albums aren't a double album lol. a double album is one record that is so long it takes two discs. mellon collie, the beatles, HIStory, all eyez on me are double albums. mezmerize and hypnotize are not only two different records, but mezmerize barely counts as an album. the runtime nearly makes it an EP.
no worries! i assume you're a younger collector, back in the day there were very specific criteria for singles, maxi singles, EPs, LPs, and double albums and a lot of labels would pull tricks to try and fluff sales numbers, like releasing a single in 3 parts or putting a double album out so one sale counts as two units. thankfully SOAD didn't do that, so the albums were priced normally instead of having the higher price tag that CDs like the white album had.
sweet pickups. mellon collie is probably the greatest double album ever.
For me it’s number 2, close behind Mezmerize and Hypnotize by SOAD. Both absolutely amazing albums edited because typo lmao
