Digital Is Better
The title of my debut novel is a translation of the album 'Digital Ist Besser' by German indie-rock band Tocotronic released in 1995. The Chapters are named after loose or partial translations of the songs on the album. 
This is pretty much where the similarities between the two works end.
When I say the book is inspired by the record, I am using that term very loosely (in other words - it's the opposite of "Based on" that one often sees at the beginning of movies).
Whilst there is the occasional nod to a line from a song, I'd argue these instances are so arbitrary that if I changed the titles you'd have hard time pinpointing any album whatsoever).

It's probably something to do with my growing up watching art house movies named after cool songs and stuff like that. 

For lack of having a better idea, I decided the publish the novel on my Writers and Artists UK profile.
