Citizen-M

About Me

Citizen-M is my solo music project I've been working on for just over 2 years now, which is basically when I first plucked a guitar string.
At this point I had already gigged drumming for a couple of bands, punk based Suicidal Ducklings, who I am still drumming for and are getting stronger by the day, and for more Indie based The Impressionables, who I quit playing for recently for personal reasons, but still check them out.
This came about from me wanting to express my own feelings, as music is the only way I feel comfortable to channel my emotions and views, which I didn't have a chance to do, particularly lyrically, beforehand.
I'm not going to tell you what my music is and what it isn't, thats for you to decide.
Only in the last year have I finally made a decision in the direction I want to take this musically, and the tracks up here are the result of that. I hope to have an albums worth of material at least demo'd by the end of the year.
Love to those who deserve it, those who don't, you'll just have to keep trying :)
The whole "Top Friends" idea is something I personally find a bit useless and sick, so instead I've provided links to videos I think everyone should see. Each one related to a stage in the cycle.

For a split second...I thought my wildest dreams had come true. Alas it was a little tremor from this traumatised planet we call our own. Next time maybe.

This is music.

Some people will hate it some people will love it, it will touch some people to the deepest places of their being and merely float over the heads of others.  Rest assured its long birth has touch...
