Look on iTunes. It's listed as two "discs" there. That's what I'm going from.
But you're right, it doesn't matter. "Double album" almost doesn't mean anything anymore. Since about '08/'09, albums marketed as "double" have often just been on one disc. Like the Flaming Lips' Embryonic. The whole concept surrounding that album was based on the Lips deconstructing classic doubles like White Album, the Wall, and Zen Arcade. It was called a double by all the reviewers and magazines. But... ain't not double album. It's one disc. Sure, it's two LP's, but what isn't?
You can fit a lot of shit on a CD, and with streaming and MP3s, forgot about it. No point. Double albums are aesthetic decisions at this point.
BUT... it's still showing up as "disc one" and "disc two" in iTunes. That's all I'm saying.
