PA suggests these song titles:

http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=7345

However, iTunes "Get CD Track Names" keeps calling them "Untitled 1", "Untitled 2" etc... And since the linear notes are blank, and the title is blank, I was wondering how the PA person who added the album knew what the tracks were named...?

Thanks,

The band published names for the songs on their website, while releasing ( ) in the untitled format.

Alright, thanks a lot. An untitled album, with untitled songs seemed to be too much :)

Since it was part of the whole concept, I like(d) it.

its not that I didn't like it (or care really), its just that I thought iTunes was actually not finding the song names, so it just put "untitled"

Fortunately, life is good now.

I always liked the idea of ( ), but I titled the mp3's like they have on their website, for example - untitled 1 - vaka
I like the fact that the album has no name, no name to the tracks, and no lyrics, it lets the listener project their own interpretation of what the music means onto it instead of preconceived ideas that could be a result of the lyrics or song names.
