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
Losing My Mind started off as a little MIDI dib-dab in a tablature program called RandyTab. I just started punching down random numbers on random lines, and this is where the tune came from. The title was taken from the pain I was feeling at this time. 3 months before, I had left my former metal band of 3 years, and was feeling rather down and depressed, and not-so-trustful of people, and felt like through all the college band drama (Drugs, girls/sex, and the other issues I had to watch and deal with), I had felt like I had lost myself along the way.
