Malcolm Bruce Middleton (born 31 December 1973) is a Scottish musician and member of indie band Arab Strap. He has also released six solo studio albums. Performing under the pseudonym Human Don't Be Angry, Middleton released a self-titled album (Human Don't Be Angry) in 2012. Whilst promoting his 2009 solo album Waxing Gibbous, Middleton noted that he would be refraining from performing and recording under his own name in the future, stating "I'm starting to feel like I've done as much as I can with this creative voice.". Since then, however, he has performed occasionally under his own name.
