I've been listening to Hurry Up, We're Dreaming by M83 a lot lately.

^ THIS.
Generally I dislike double albums. It's too much material to properly digest in one sitting and they tend to be burdened with a lot of filler and/or mediocre songs.
I read (or heard, can't remember) an interview with Trent recently where he was reflecting on "The Fragile". My memory is a bit hazy but I'm almost positive he said that in retrospect he probably should have released it as two separate albums.
The Walkabouts - Drunken Soundtracks
It's a two-disc collection of B-sides and covers from a band, continually ignored by everyone, from what's generally considered to be their weakest period. I don't know how this could've possibly worked enough to include it here but it does! I'm kicking myself for waiting so long to check this one out. Gorgeous!
Wu-Tang Forever ain't gettin' no love?! Every track is good...
PS- The three songs to remove from The Fragile would easily be Pilgrimage, Starsuckers, and Ripe. With an honorable mention going to Underneath It All.
PSS- One Hot Minute is a sick record and it holds up extremely well. Forgotten songs like the title track and Transcending need to be revived.
