Titles are literally the easiest fucking shit. Just pick some random cool sounding word, it doesn't even need to have a connection to the lyrics, it will seem really deep and clever regardless.

Here, let me just generate some random song titles for you.

Titles are easy mane. I just take lyrics from old emo songs if I want some pretentious titles, otherwise just find a cool sounding word, like "Convalescent" or something.

My latest tracks have all been named after lyrics from old Capn Jazz and Owls songs.

It's a valid artistic decision. If the artist doesn't think the song needs a name, then they name it "untitled." It's not that difficult to comprehend.

It's a stylistic choice that forces the listener to form their opinions based on just the sonic aspect of the piece. People don't do it just because they can't think of titles

Robert Smith about the self-titled the cure album:
>I used to not care about stealing titles from other people. In fact, most of the early work of The Cure have borrowed their titles. I think every title of "Seventeen Seconds" is a short story by Kafka. Back then we didn't think that anyone would bother to sue us, but now we have to be more careful. The first title we think for the project last summer when we started doing demos was "Dream Good, Bad Dream". And I wanted to do a double album, one that reflects our lighter side and one with the darker side. But Ross convinced me that if we both compatible parts, the result probably would be better, would be a better record and more people come because they feel more intrigued. He wanted to make the final album of The Cure. I said, well if you do, you have to call him "The Cure". That was really the reason for the album title.

I spent time thinking, he was involved in the control room and kept thinking, this album is called "The Cure". I remember that. And I thought at some point towards the end, I'll have to start thinking in titles. I have an old book, a manuscript, in which writing titles. When I think of a word or phrase and think it might be a good title, i write it. Then I consulted and there was nothing that served to me. That's what I did this time, so I had to keep thinking about what to call it. Just until we were mastering the album, I was thinking, how the hell I'm going to call this record, and I thought obviously has to be called "The Cure".

Not op for the 45 minute comment but I usually find that very few albums can have consistent quality throughout a run time if it is longer than 45 minutes. I'd prefer 30 minutes of gold rather than an hour of sludge with golden nuggets scatter in-between
