Albums where side A and B are different styles

Neil Young and Crazy Horse - Rust Never Sleeps
Bobby Dillman - Bringing It All Back Home

Both these do the one side electric, one side acoustic to great effect

Must be loads of other examples. Fire

David Bowie - Low

Descendents - I Don’t Wanna Grow Up

Minilogue - Animals
Side A - full-on techno
Side B - pure ambient

Black Flag - My War (side A is fast hardcore punk, side B is slow metal doom not unlike Black Sabbath)

Felt - The Pictorial Jackson Review

Side one: short guitar pop songs
Side two: long keyboard instrumentals

New Order - Brotherhood

(Although I’d have gone with Side B just being a whirring CD player sound forever.)

Yellow Submarine
