...album's over two hours long and spread out over three discs. It seems designed to be listened to as one complete product and not as a series of separate songs.

In a way, the three records are like chapters in a book. Unless you're serializing a book you wouldn't separate the chapters, but they're also meant to be these little self-contained segments...

(That reminds me, I need to start my own blog: Republican Babies...
...Multiple Personality Disorder. Rather, I mean it more along the lines of “someone you’re usually not” (courtesy urbandictionary.com). In this sense, alter egos seem to be everywhere these days: Beyoncé can’t get out in a leotard and spread her legs for the “Single Ladies” dance as herself—it’s her alter ego “Sasha Fierce” who’s hitting the stage. Recently I heard about a Swedish parliament member who went...
