Drummer Ágúst left the band after the recording of "Ágætis byrjun" and was replaced by Orri Páll Dýrason. In 2002, their highly anticipated follow-up album "( )" was released. Upon release all tracks on the album were untitled, though the band later published song names on their website. All of the lyrics on "( )" are sung in "Vonlenska", also known as Hopelandic, a language without semantic meaning, which resembles the phonology of the Icelandic language. It has also been said that the listener is supposed to interpret their own meanings of the lyrics which can then be written in the blank pages in the album booklet.
