The "Eras" of M.J. are split up accordingly...

The Grunge-Wave Era (1996-1998)

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
This tune started off as just the opening guitar riff in my head one day at my first job as a Dishwasher.. People must have thought I was crazy because I recall bobbing my head to this riff idea most of the night as it was very catchy but dark sounding. At the time, I was working double shifts at a restaraunt, dealing with internet borne drama, and pretty much fed up with life, and felt rather frustrated with life, like a Man on the Edge, hence the title.
