title me

so the amazing number of anticipated albums that are arriving between now and summer have one little quip in my mind:
i just can't seem to grasp the appeal or interest level of their respective titles. self-titled albums are a poor foray, and the rest seem like weak jaunts and overly stated minimalist phrases. does coldplay have a fascination with patterns of single gene inheritance? weezer already had enough made up muppet shenanigans. give me puns, give me complex prose, give me something more than the flippin' band name as the name of the record. that said, here's a short list of up and coming records that are sure to land secure spots in the autumnattic spring/summer rotation (but nevertheless, are poorly titled).

the bravery - the bravery
coldplay - x & y
hot hot heat - elevator
weezer - make believe

stay tuned for the well-titled spring album edition later this week.
