I recently picked up The Seer by Swans on vinyl and the track listing is in a completely different order than the Digital or CD copy.

I believe this is because of the very long lengths of some of the tracks, and was the only way to fit them into 3 discs nicely. They even had to cut the title track into two parts among two sides of one record.

I personally enjoy the way the tracks are sequenced on the vinyl release, but I've never really listened to the album as a whole until I grabbed my own copy, so this is the way I've come to know the album. I think this would irritate me if I went to listen to the album digitally or on CD for whatever reason..

Any thoughts on this..?

that's weird. i can't listen to albums on shuffle because i get so accustomed to the track order, so this would irritate me to no end.

When I'm listening to albums and the track order isn't the one I'm accustomed to, it just completely fucks with my head.
If I expect a certain song to come next but it doesn't, I just freak out. It's like the world no longer makes sense to me. Confused Cool
