I've been ordering the Definitive Editions of the albums through my local record store in chronological order. Wounded Land & Psychedelicatessen were both official Nuclear Blast releases and were just fine. Today I got Extinct Instinct; I noticed when I got home that it said it came from an Argentinian company called Icarus Music, but it said it was officially licensed from Nuclear Blast, so presumably it's legitimate... but the tracks are out of order.
Tracks 7 & 8, 9 & 10, and 11 & 12 are swapped, making for a jarring listening experience. Given that this is my first experience with an Icarus Music product, I'm unsure if this is an isolated incident or a repeated problem with their regional rereleases, but in any case I'm planning to return the CD to the store as soon as possible and possibly ordering it directly from Nuclear Blast this time.
