it did not. Lindsey's solo project, original Gift of Screws, had mixed styles but it was cohesive and far superior to SYW. if you are looking at it as a whole album (as opposed to a grouping of individual songs), SYW sounds nothing like GOS1.

for whatever reasons, the label would not let that album out in 2001, and instead *convinced* Lindsey he should roll it into the FM project. come to think of it, why did they let Stevie put her album out in 2001, instead of making her roll some of those songs into FM project too, and have FM album out in 2001 instead of 2003? which would make sense and be much sooner after the big bang of the Dance. i don't think i've ever heard any LB fan say GOS1 is not some of LB's best work, while SN fans seem to be very divided on TISL.
