That, or he was trying too hard to push FM into experimental territory. In any case, I think if you cherrypicked the best of UTS and GOS and replaced most of Lindsey's songs on SYW, I think it would have been a much stronger album, if not one of their best ever.
I agree - "What's the World Coming To" is weaker than anything from LB's subsequent solo albums.
