* PostReleaseRetitle: Starflyer 59's first two albums (released 1994 and 1995 respectively) were officially both [[SelfTitledAlbum self-titled]] at the time, though the fandom was quick to distinguish them by the [[FanNickname nicknames]] ''Silver'' and ''Gold'', based on their [[MinimalisticCoverArt monochromatic covers]]. The band and record label also used those nicknames unofficially--then [[AscendedFanon made them official]] when they rereleased both albums (in remastered and expanded form) as ''Silver [Extended Edition]'' and ''Gold [Extended Edition]'' in 2005.

* TroubledProduction: Owing to the departure of most of the band, and Jason's CreatorBreakdown, he barely finished recording ''Gold'' in time.

to:

* MissingEpisode:
** That album by the side project Enemy Ships was never released, outside of being leaked to the internet.
** "Jim", an instrumental song laid down during the ''Old'' recording sessions (and mentioned several times in Jeff Cloud's online recording journal). The band cut it from the album, intending to release it on an EP later. Then the hard drive containing the only recording of the song was damaged, and Jason forgot how the song went. So "Jim" is lost forever.

* CreatorRecovery: The album ''Gold'' was written and recorded while Jason Martin was on the verge of a nervous breakdown, due to the messy ends of several friendships and the stress of recording the album practically by himself. For the followup album, ''Americana'', Jason Martin had a full band playing with him and producer Gene Eugene to help with the duties of recording, so it was a much more "fun" rock album. It's probably not a coincidence that Jason switched to playing New Wave music and almost entirely abandoned guitar distortion shortly afterwards.

Added DiffLines:

* CreatorBreakdown: ''Gold'' is the soundtrack to a barely-averted nervous breakdown. Jason's bandmates departed after the ''Silver'' tour, leaving Jason to record the follow-up album almost completely by himself. On top of this, Jason was feeling messed up over some friendships that had dissolved. That claustrophobia you feel in the finished album? That's Jason nearly suffocating under his own high expectations.
