Syro is "Syrian", in the same way Anglo is "English"

Send Your Rupies Over

syro, apparently means 'greek'. as in "it's all greek to me" > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_to_me

makes sense if you think of how the titles and biog and constructed, possibly the music too.

if you take 'syro' to mean 'greece', could be about greasing palms, as in payments for favours, as detailed in the artwork.

Sell Your Right Ovary

Sort Your Rectum Out

Spoodge You Randy Orville

Squidge Your Refrigerator Often

Some Yeast Rises, Okay?

If that isn't what it stands for, I'm using it for a future album of my own.

Saw You Rub One Out. Hrmm no that would be SYROO, and the album cover would look like this.

And everyone's avatar would be a different shade of yellow.

i mistakenly 1st read it as sylo as a take on psilocybin probably cause i was looking at the track list at the same time.

the whole thing has really different track names than other releases. wonder why.

edit: against memes and shit (with triachus)

From this Pitchfork interview, which actually links to this forum:

http://pitchfork.com/features/cover-story/reader/aphex-twin/#syro

Richard D. James: "Sigh-ro." It's just a made-up word my kid came up with. I don't know what it means, and he doesn't know what it means, either. But it means something. And it sounds cool. That's it, basically. [laughs] It's really funny, because if you make up words, then people project their own meanings onto it, which I find interesting. I looked at a forum last night, and there was already about 10 pages of people doing acronyms of Syro: "Sell Your Rotten Ovaries," or something. [laughs]

OK them, who came up with 'Sell Your Rotten Ovaries'??

is it engrish?

some kind of pretend japanese apology for leaving us all these years and the bonus track is an aphex bunch of petrol (gas) station flowers

I think he took the best parts from all the answers to make the perfect one.

Either that or it's in the mega thread somewhere.
