Trivia

  • One theory is that the catalogue numbers were chosen such that each digit adds up to 14 (3+2+9) to match SIGN being the 14th album. An interesting note is that PLUS's also adds up to 14 (3+3+8); which implies that both SIGN and PLUS are the 14th album, or at the very least seen as part of the "same release"
  • In an interview with the New York Times, Rob mentioned that the title SIGN is "an initialization, but we don't want to tell anybody what it stands for." [1]
