Yes. I had that issue recently when I found out that Carly Rae Jepsen put out a B side for her album Emotion that was considered an EP. It wasn’t listened with the rest of her albums.
@@ogpandamonium that would be better than what we have currently but I feel like EPs are a type of albums just as opposed to LPs.

I’ve found that EPs are some of my favorite projects ever, idk something about the concise nature of it and the lower likelihood of filler makes them very enjoyable from my favorite artists
You nailed it man, too many albums have filler nowadays. It makes much more sense to me to make a project with a few songs that are quality rather than adding in mid songs just for streams.
@@nbabackcourtmedia I was hoping somebody was going to mention that EP, I love that project so much that I even got it on vinyl. Every song is such a banger and two of them are just instrumentals lol.
One thing people forget is that making an album gets really expensive, real quick. So especially for artists that are just starting, putting out an EP first helps to get recognition and fanbase to justify dropping so much money recording, producing, mixing and mastering an album. That's why you'll notice many of your favourite bands started their careers by releasing an EP before their first album
Yeah, 25 minutes is the max most EPs were allowed, but now that music is digital it's all up to the artist, I think? The timing thing was just so it can fit on a vinyl record back in the day, so now the 10 song EP he mentioned could work if it was digital or a CD

I think the reason that I, as an artist, put out EPs as opposed to LPs for now, is because I'm a little scatterbrained when it comes to ideas. I'll get an idea, find that I can carry that for a couple songs, but then find another idea I could fit it to. I love the flexibility I can have with my creativity, being able to have a somewhat diverse discography at a very early stage in my art.

K-Pop Mini albums, as much as I love them, can be really really confusing when you don’t pay attention. As in, they’re labelled ‘the _st/nd/rd mini album’, so it’s really weird to see ‘the 1st album’ on a release. Anyway, one of my favourite non-k-pop EPs is ‘In A Beautiful Place Out In The Country’. 20 mins of perfection.
for me the main difference between an ep and a lp isn't the number of songs on it, but really just the overall length of the project. if it's under 30 minutes it's probably an ep
I usually think of an EP as like 3 - 5 or 6 songs and less than 25 minutes. In the DIY/independent rock and Metal scene I think EPs play a very important roll, because they can be made relatively quickly to keep people's attention with new releases but still allow you to release a "project" that's cohesive, where the songs compliment each other.

Car Seat Headrest's how to leave town has 9 songs and is 62 mins long, but it's still an EP. honestly, I see them as longer singles rather than shorter albums
I always define singles, EPs/mini albums, and albums by runtime as tracks always vary in length as you pointed out at the end. 30min is an album. Although it gets a bit confusing when artists market smaller projects as albums (looking at you, Joji) but then again, and EP is really just a small album, like a small photo album is a small collection of photos.
2:30 Often times in punk and hardcore people first hear songs on compilations (which are basically mixtapes) organized by the band, I know this especially prevalent in the modern Folk Punk and Crust scenes
Really cool video! 👍 One thing I do want to point out is that, if I remember the definition correctly, it's either 7 songs or 26 minutes or less (which is why Green Day's Father of All is an album because it squeeked by with 10 seconds to spare). This becomes an interesting case with something like the NIN discography because if you look at singles like Head Like A Hole, that borders on like, 40 minutes and it's still seen as a "single". Honestly, an entire essay can be given on how odd the NIN discography is with its Halo numbering system...
something interesting to note about nine inch nails is the single [otherwise labeled as an ep] released for head like a hole that had ten [or eleven depending on the release] tracks that ended up being longer than pretty hate machine.
Slayers haunting the chapel is my favourite ep. It was originally 3 songs but they eventually added a song they only released on a compilation album to the later releases
As a artist in my own right, I love crafting EPs rather than albums. It’s a good way to get your foot in the door the the music industries without the commitment of making a full length album, I’ve yet to release an album but when I do it’ll be great because my EP projects have already given me the experience on what to do to craft a great narrative for an album.
I've been listening to the full discography of my favourite Vocaloid producer lately, and it's made me aware of a concept in Japan called the doujin album, or indie album. As the name implies they're usually self-published (even if the artist is actually with a label), are usually produced at home, and are typically shorter than an album, but are longer than an EP - 5 to 7 or even 8 songs, with runtimes of 30 to 40 or even 50 minutes, are pretty typical for them. They're typically sold on specialized music sites, on the artist's own website, or physically at conventions like Comiket. They're pretty neat! I like them; they can contain some real bangers, and because they're at least more substantial than an EP, you don't feel like you're missing out if one of them stays confined to a doujin album. They do lack the full cohesion that makes a proper major album release, however. In a way you could just think of them as *B I G E P*
These videos are always my highlight of the time since the last one came out. 6:53 Yeah, you right, they quick. BUT NOT WHEN I NEED TO REWATCH EVERY SMALLEST CLIP FOR 5 TO 10 TIMES BECAUSE YOU MAKE THEM SO FUNNY!! i'm totally really mad rn
One of my all-time favorite EP's is Four Year Strong's "Go Down in History" from 2014. It's only 5 tracks, a tight 16 minutes, and it gives a sampling of the band in one of its best eras, in my opinion: RIGHT after they got off one of their least good albums and pendulum swung back into their groove. Highly recommend it as one of their best releases, even better than some albums, especially if you like Pop Punk / Easycore and don't have a lot of time.
"Lyfe" by Yeat and "GO+" by SoFaygo are considered EP's to them but they're both 12 songs so it really gets confusing cause that could literally just be an album or even a mixtape but they market it as an EP.
i think what differenciates an album and an EP is the length (most of the time) usually an EP is less than 25 minutes but an album is longer than that :)
i think a better way to determine if a release is an EP or not is to look at how long the entire release is. Sleep's "Dopesmoker" is 2 songs, but its an hour and eleven minutes long. its not really a single. i think if a project is longer than 40 minutes, than its an album. 10 - 30 minutes is an EP, and
my favorite example of an odd ep is the beach boys' "mount vernon and fairway: a fairy tale", which was packaged as a bonus ep with the initial release of their album holland. unlike most eps, this is a 20 minute long story with original music both as the background of the narration and as little in-betweens, there's some real gems in there and honestly i think it might be just a little bit better than the album it was a bonus to lol
that's a great EP. I think Brian was a bit out of the band's Rock™style on Holland, so he worked out a fairy tale bonus to include in the package. Kind of a hidden gem in their catalog because its stranger than most of "SMiLE" imo.
This band Why? releases an EP after every album that serves as a replacement for a bonus track deluxe album. I like it better that way to keep an album feeling like its own separate snapshot of a band.
What makes it even more confusing is that there are some EP's that are almost an hour long such as Car Seat Headrest's - How to Leave Town, and albums such as Jethro Tull's - Thick as A Brick being comprised of 2 parts of the same song, being 43 minutes, however it's considered to be an LP. There really is no way to discern which is what and what is which. The term is used very loosely and for rare cases where an EP is longer than an LP, I think it's better to not worry about the terminology that much.
In my opinion, an ep can be an amazing way to test out a different sound, without having to worry about your fans thinking "i can't believe these guy's changed their sound" or just to release your best tracks without any filler. A great example of an album i think should've been an ep is AJJ's "The Bible 2" Some of their best songs are on that album, but only about 7 on their are really worth anything. With the rest being either really forgettable, or really boring. So anyways, an ep can be a good way to release music without having to worry about people seeing your album as filler. Or thinking that you've changed your sound completely, in case your fans don't like it. A good way to test the waters of sort
I agree a lot with your sentiments on EPs. The worst is when you want a physical of an EP that never got reissued after the first run. Also, does Mike Oldfield‘s Tubular Bells count as an EP or a single having only two tracks? :P
6:54 English progressive rock band, Yes, has an album from 1972, which contains only 3 songs. The album is 38 minutes long, and the shortest song on the record is almost 9 minutes long. This is a common thing in the progressive rock genre. The album is called "Close to the Edge", and it's on of their biggest, if not the biggest albums of all of their career. They also have another very long album, called "Tales from Topographic Oceans", which contains only 4 songs, and is over 80 minutes long. Do these works count as EPs? (> v o)?
Kendrick Lamar’s self titled EP is *15* tracks long. He even brings up how “revolutionary” the idea is on The Heart Part 2. Also, a bit surprised you didn’t bring up Paradise by Lana Del Rey at all. The project has 8 songs, but it was meant to be “extras” for Born To Die, creating the album’s “Paradise Edition”. The normal EP has the 8 songs, but then the Paradise Edition of BTD has one extra song along with all of Paradise. So, technically, it has nine tracks. But, no one really considers it her second album like they do Ultraviolence. She released it the same year as Born To Die, and, as I implied, it’s basically an add on project with semi-similar production, not its own separate project. But, like how My Dear Melancholy is home to Call Out My Name, one of Abel’s biggest hits, Paradise contains Ride, which many consider to be one of Lana’s best songs. It’s also one of her most ambitious projects music video wise. Ride’s music video is very well praised in the fandom for its monologue by Lana that cuts before and after the main song part of the video. She also made a half hour short film named Tropico that complied three other songs from the project, along with plenty of monologuing and dialogue.
For some more information on how most streaming services decided if it's an album or ep, it has to be 3-7 tracks or less than 30 minutes. Of course, this only applies to indie artists. A label can decide whatever they want. But most third party distributors have the 3-7 tracks and
The music distrobutor amuse has ep’s defined as 4-6 songs with a total lenght of under 30 minutes (if it has 7 songs or is over 30 minute it is an album)

The OG Maco EP is 15 tracks long i distinctly remember wondering what defined an EP when i saw it because it’s almost an hour long
"enough songs to make an album *shows 7+ songs* "
*gy!be walks in*
*paysage d'hiver walks in*
Keep up the good work! Maybe the next video will be about maybe CDs?
DID I SAW A SKRILLEX MENTION?????
I like the rise again EP from crush 40. One of those days from it is one of my favorites from crush 40

bite sized for mr. bites!
Hello bites. Nice video. 👍🏿
The music distrobutor amuse has ep’s defined as 4-6 songs with a total lenght of under 30 minutes (if it has 7 songs or is over 30 minute it is an album)
fun fact: kendrick lamar released an ep in 2009 with 15 tracks on it, his explanation for it being an ep? he felt like it
Slow Riot for New Zero Kanada by Godspeed You! Black Emperor is the greatest ep ever made
i like eps cause is when an artist wanna a projetc but less song, it turns more concise in the end
Punk 7”s for the win
I honestly think it has more to do with the runtime of the project than the number of songs in it
gorillaz and foster the people mentioned lets go
Childish Gambino's EP "EP" is easily my favorite EP
4:50 ahhhh i get it
Shame you didn't discuss The Fame Monster or Guitar Songs in this video, but I can't have everything I guess..
Oddly enough the Tragically Hip's self titled EP has 8 songs but is still considered an EP and not a part of their main discography
FOSTER THE PEOPLE MENTIONED
You should make a vid on singles bro

I’m gonna ask again what is the Intro song
