What does Consternation mean exactly? (It's a song title off the new album). Is it like when you sit on the toilet but you can't go? And how come Swedish people know better english than I do?

Here comes my poor translation of that title.
It means something like a little riot, noise, rumour, sensation or something like:
What the f*cking hell is going on, right here!

Well, that is true. I am too lazy to use a dictionary, that's why I asked here. It was easier. And I have absolutely no consternation about it. (Did I use it right?)

Well in finnish as well:
Konsternaatio on ko Katatonia keksii semmosen biisin nimen ja sitte fanit iha hädissään kyselee että "mitäs tuo nyt oikei on!?" ja sitten ihmettelee suuresti mitä viisaita kirjotin tähän.
