Q1: Where did your username come from? I was the youngest person in a band I was playing in during the late 90s, early 00s, so I got the nickname 'the boy'. M is the first letter of my name, so my username is just an acronym for the boy mark.

Q5: Your #1 ever track - again, just the one? Impossible to say, but the most slack jawed in amazement I've ever been at a gig was watching the Melvins open a show with 'The Fool, the Meddling Idiot' about 15 years ago. It pretty much changed what I thought about guitar, songs and songwriting.
Noise, randomness, ballistic uncertainty.
