Theory : every episode title is a name of a song from a British band/ solo artist

I noticed straight away in the first episode that Ritsuka had a copy of "AM", one of the Arctic Monkeys most known albums that i enjoy immensely, and thought it was a cool little easter egg.
I just finished episode 3 and noticed that the next episode is called "Fluorescent Adolescent", a well known Arctic Monkeys song; so I looked at all the titles of the episodes we have so far, and sure enough ,each episode title is a song where the guitar is prominent by a British band/solo artist that tend to gravitate to indie rock :
-Episode 1 : Boys in the Band - The Libertines
-Episode 2 : Like Someone in Love - Bruno Major
-Episode 3 : Somebody Else - Circa Waves
-Episode 4 : Fluorescent Adolescent - Arctic Monkeys

I hope this theory is true, cause it seems like too many coincidences to not be, and it's a fun little Easter egg that could make people discover new songs and artists.
The series is starting to look more and more interesting and I'm enjoying it quite a bit, hope all goes well.
Cheers for reading.

Noticed the AM disc too, and the Fluorescent Adolescent was the biggest hint xD The author must really like Arctic Monkeys! I didn't know the rest, so...

I thought "The Reason" was a reference to the Hoobastank song, but if you're right and it's only British indie rock bands, it can't be it.

Yeah, I notice that too. I really like indie rock, so I think it was a very cool thing to add to the anime. Episode 5 will be titled "The Reason" and I assume it's referring to the Hoobastank song.

One more Easter Egg: on the first episode, Uenoyama says that at first he couldn't play guitar like Thom Yorke (Radiohead's vocalist) and Keith Richards (The Rolling Stone's guitarrist). Unlike the other Easter Eggs, that one was in the manga too.
