Chapter names

How do you go about coming up with chapter names?  Do you go for something obvious (a quick summary of the events), something that hints about what will happen or something more obtuse.

For my current WIP (and the other books in the series) I’ve gone for song titles.  They’ve either had titles that fit the chapter well, or the mood of the song works well with the subject matter.  It started off because of one of the inspirations for the series was a singer who shot himself through the heart.  His band (Sparkleshorse)’s song Heart of Darkness worked really well for one of the chapters in Tapasya (bit.ly/Tapasya) so I just went with it.

Here the chapter names for what I’ve written so far for Prasad

1 Lost

2 Dark Ages

3 Wandering Star

4 Not To Touch The Earth

5 Ghost

6 Corona Radiata

7 Infinite Dreams

8 The Crystal Ship

9 Punishment Through Time

10 Beneath Black Skies

(Bonus points if you can name the bands!
