I Am Anonymous is the first studio album by English progressive metal band Headspace, released on 22 May 2012.
According to Adam Wakeman, "I Am Anonymous is a heavily guitar oriented record. That wasn’t the intention, but [Pete Rinaldi] is a killer guitar player, and the album just evolved the way it did." [6]
On Headspace official website, it is specified that the album "is about you [the listener] and your relationship with humanity, ultimately the battles fought within the mind from child to man". The Kübler-Ross model is cited as an important element of the lyric's meaning. [3]
