well, that said, i personllay don't take these 'song titles' into
consideration when considering sigur's packaging
aesthetic/overall-art-mission. these are basically meaningless titles the
band attached to the songs while touring them simply so that they could
refer to them more easily (instead of "you know, the slow song..."). ever
look at a band's stage set list? there will be song titles like "drum solo
song" "cheesy heavy metal song" and "party jam"
... i wouldn't consider these track titles as part of sigur's message.
