I'm an Alien I'm not from here and Sometimes (most of the time) I wanna go home but I know I have to try and understand you

The Real Story:
I Know I'm An Alien is the music made by an incarnated alien from 5th dimensional star realms in humanoid form and his impressions on current human behavior and their funny outlook on life.
Aware of the trappings of 3D reality, the artist utilizes unconventional guitar sounds and singing voice to express his awkwardness when faced with violence, greed, love for technology over living beings, war and just the plain zombie-like behavior of his fellows.
For many years, our hero attempted to live an "earthly" acceptable life just like his peers, trying to fit in with his fellows by doing drugs, drinking insane amounts of alcohol and engaging in numerous other obsessions, like sex and pornography, to escape the sad truth of failing to belong to a society whose standards he fails to comprehend.
After a while, he goes completely insane and gets committed over and over to mental institutions by the "normal" people. The absurd pain, misery and hell of depression wakes him up out of his human coma to his divine heritage and he remembers his mission on earth, which is to help others awaken to their own true nature leading them by example with his own life.
His message is that through a deep transformation of the psyche, a revolution is then possible and the Earth can and will ascend to higher dimensions towards a reality based on principles of peace, love and understanding.
This album is heavily inspired by the alien's attempt at a "normal" 9-5 slave-like job in one of the world's largest zombie filled metropolises that cripples his Soul on a daily basis and tries to dominate and block his creative nature. His short-haired, polo-shirt-wearing, virtual-reality-loving co-workers indulge in their money-chasing, reality-escaping lives all week long seeking ferociously for the Holy Grail of fulfillment to their lives: getting wasted at the pub on Friday night.
