5:14 Fluoxytine Seagull Alcohol John Nicotine is the debut solo album by Scottish singer-songwriter Malcolm Middleton, released on 26 September 2002 on Chemikal Underground.
In 2002, Middleton, writing lyrics and singing for the first time, recorded and released 5:14 Fluoxytine Seagull Alcohol John Nicotine. Middleton has commented on the album, saying
Hearing those songs back and singing them over and over again on my own made me realise how pathetic a situation I was in and helped me to change it. Listening to it now is quite harrowing. I can hear an old friend who was severely depressed, desperate and unhappy. [3]
