None, I don’t think. It’s hard to say really because you have to imagine what another album’s worth of material would have been like if it had come from that artist at that time. Bit of a silly question really.

Definitely maybe and Morning glory, supposedly. People say the b-sides are as strong as the albumn tracks, so in theory would make decent double albums. I wouldn’t know though I havent listened to them because oasis are wank

Converge had so much good material for Dusk In Us (including Eve, an amazing track, as well as the solid Beautiful Ruin EP) that they could have easily made it a double album.
As it is, it’s a perfectly structured single album, so I’m glad they kept the discipline and kept it to a single.

So much great material from that time period that went unreleased. I’ve worked out various tracklistings, a bunch of them work really well for an amazing Disc 2.
Something like this:
Disc 1
Doomsday Clock
7 Shades of Black
Bleeding the Orchid
That’s the Way
Tarantula
Starz
United States
Neverlost
Bring the Light
Come On Let’s Go
For God and Country
Pomp and Circumstance
Zeitgeist
Disc 2
Psalm 131
As Rome Burns
Gossamer
99 Floors
Superchrist
Stellar
Ma Belle
Peace + Love
The Leaving Lament
Really sad this doesn’t exist. Some truly ambitious and furious and beautiful stuff in there.
Think we’ll all mostly agree on this. Even if an argument can be made that a band had a lot of great b-side material or later-released whatever from the era, double albums are inferior (fact) and adding on more material would only reduce the overall quality.
