Don't ever call Vanilla Monkey "forgettable" again.
For me the RiverRuns were thousand times more exciting than the last album, because I feel that it was exactly what they wanted to put out at that time. I you haven't already, listen to PFE while watching the photos...
I'm sad that there wasn't as much critical response to the EPs as they deserved.
A reason for that might be the general preconception that those EPs consisted of "unfinished" or "unpolished" tunes... and were merely "goodies". It makes me sad every time I read a sentence like that here.
Many people seem to expect a second dubno or STITI or whatever, but what's the point? If I want dubno I listen to dubno. They have to move forward... and the RiverRun project was just that. The album... not so much. Something seemed to hold them back (except for the last third + Loads of Birds, which could easily have been another RiverRun).
In answer to the original question, I think they should release a longer RiverRun in form of an album.
