spurred on by the "so few songs for the survivor!" comment:
it surprises me people still see GY!BE tracks as gargantuan suites when, in reality, they're simply bits and pieces arranged into listenable constructions – exactly the same as placing album tracks in sequence and making segues between each track, with the only difference being that GY!BE only index the CDs into collections of bits, rather than allowing each bit to have its own track.
in relation to stuff like voting survivors, it's actually a bit... less accurate? to go by the entire suites. my main argument is that a track like "Antennas to Heaven" would get buried despite containing "She Dreamt She Was a Bulldozer, She Dreamt She Was Alone in an Empty Field" (a.k.a. "John Hughes"), one of the many highlights inside the enormous 20-minute suites.
i certainly get why – the band presents them in this configuration, of course. however, i find it has more to do with an attempt to make people listen to the thing in sequence. hell, a bunch of them even have straight silence for several seconds. it's all about album pacing and trying to enforce listening to it that way, rather than actually collecting whole pieces, and that's why each record has a breakdown of the individual parts (though i don't recall if that applies to f#a#∞ or not; Lift Your Skinny Fists certainly has a map).
then there's the other issue: if you're voting out songs in a survivor, do you get the option of voting out the last part of "09-15-00" just because it's a separate track? they went the opposite way on Yanqui UXO and actually did break up some parts despite the fact that they were part of a larger whole.
personally, i've split all the albums into respective individual parts, and prefer to listen to them that way, even if i just put on the whole record anyway. it makes more sense, and it's more in line with how the band plays live too. sometimes i just don't want to sit through "Terrible Canyons of Static" and "Chart #3" to get to "World Police," you know?
