Although the tracks on this album are presented as untitled, the band has been using working titles for them. The titles are as follows: #1 Vaka, #2 Fyrsta, #3 Samskeyti, #4 Njósnavélin, #5 Álafoss, #6 E-Bow, #7 Dauðalagið, #8 Popplagið. Some of the titles probably need some explanation for you english speaking people: Vaka = the name of the drummers daughter, fyrsta = first, samskeyti = joint or seam, njósnavélin = the spy machine,´Álafoss = the name of the area where the bands studio is located, e-bow is the kind of bow that was used to stroke the strings of the bass guitar, dauðalagið = the death song, popplagið = the pop song.
