Which bellend thought it was a good idea to stretch these albums over four sides of vinyl? You'd have to get up off your arse four times to listen to a whole album. Going back to two sides of vinyl is more than enough exercise now that we've become used to cds. I'm 52 for fuck's sakes.
Flowers is still a single LP while Siberia is expanded to 2. The marketing speak for this is so that there is better spacing between the grooves which produces better sonic results. It’s just bollocks to justify hiking the price up. I’ve got various 2LP versions of albums that were originally single LPs and I can’t honestly say any of them sound better than the originals.
