M.J. was a one man music project of Mike Jacobsen. It was started in 1996, and ended in 2013 when he got married, and thusly the name would have changed.

The Grunge-Wave Era (1996-1998) Demos - Lanna, Kramer Sound - Think Nirvana meets ZZ Top and The Cars, but with lots of whammy bar abuse The "High School Crush" Era (1998-2000) Demos: Dirty Talk, Sexy Girls Sound - Pomp AOR "radio friendly" rock, similar to Loverboy/Journey/Styx The "Post-Lithium" era (2003-2005) Demos: Monochrome, Icebox, Killing Alabama Sound - Nu-Metal meets New Wave The "Everett Era" (2006-2011) Demos: Agent Blue, EGA Stereo, 8088, M.J., System Shock, Urban Exploitation, Apocalyptic Hockey, Content through Negligence Sound - Finally found my sound, sort of an alt-rock heavy metal hybrid with the occasional New-Wave synth or experimental instrumentation and effects The Last Album (2012-2013) Demos: Back to the Mower Shed Sound - Similar to Everett

Story behind the song
1999 was a dark time in my life, this was the tune I wrote the words for about it. Of course, the words are not up here (partially to protect my work). I was still trying to get a relationship started with a 5 year crush, I was trying to get my grades back up, but just did not feel like doing well, and generally hated the new staff coming in, as well as most of my peers. This tune was one of those "cover-all" type tunes that just would have been a random rant about various things bugging me at the time. The guitar part was one of the earliest experiments in using chorus as a sonic effect instead of as an integral part of my guitar tone.
