Artist picture
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.
BIO Of M.J. The "Eras" of M.J. are split up accordingly... 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
Another song written out of a Jam. This time playing with the eternity Delay Effect on a BOSS ME-6 pedal board, though now I've advanced it here using a Behringer V-Amp Pro processor. I had a cool music video idea for this one, where the old me is laying on the ground, bloody, beaten, goatee and moustache acting like a sponge, as the spirit of "mad" rises up out of the body, red pupils, and a blue steel sword, and seeks out to murder those who wronged him. That's what the song is about, killing your past, leaving it all behind for better days......closing up the "Dark Quasi-Goth Era", and beginning the Icebox era, and leaving the listener wondering where our blue steel sword weilding hero is headed to now.
