    I haven't ever bought an LP of the same album twice (it'll happen some time down the road for sure), but it's hard for me to decide between the newer copies of this and ...LC coming out in December, and the original deluxe ones (or both).

      For those saying the vinyl version could've been 1LP...I kind of agree with you but it is over even the original default max per side.
      When the Long Play format was first introduced the maximum amount of music per side was 24 minutes. That's a soft limit not a hard limit, but it requires more talented people who charge more for their time to cut a record that goes past that, plus there's a greater chance of skipping (the side walls of the groove are thinner) and the dynamic range (difference between loudest sound and quietest sound on that side) is lowered. In modern days they try to keep it to 17 minutes max per side to get higher than normal sound quality (to try to partially match CD's higher sound quality).
      If this album was on 1LP then side A would have 5 tracks and be 24:24 and side B would be 23:39. So yes it could be done but it would be a sound quality similar to 80s vinyl (where 1LP releases totalling 54min were the norm).

      (and if you're thinking "but this is a review so is the music good?" I'd say it is, but like the last album it's experimenting with going off on a tangent. Not the same tangent mind you, but just Josh trusting himself to be able to write good songs without using the cliches that were previously considered to be part of the stereotypical Queens Of The Stone Age sound. Personally I'd like to hear more of the old sound, but I'm not disappointed with this album.)

        I understand them trying to do something different, but I'm not a huge fan of this album. The delux vinyl sounded compressed, no depth to it.... I really tried to like it, whilst there are obvious highlights, the production is pants, its not for me! I love everything Josh has done up till this, so it's disappointing. Bring back the real Queens Of The Stone Age!🤘

          This isn't a record. Its a god damned mantel piece. Can someone please explain to me why the fuck I would want to get up every 3 songs to change a record? I suspect nobody ever does. They just listen to the digital versions. This record could easily fit on a single vinyl. Its a shame because I really like the music. This record on the other hand is a mangled piece of glorified trash.

            The vinyl version really could have been a single disc and sounded just a good. These 1.5 LP editions is just a lame way to get 'double disc' prices.
