1) Battle: formerly known as Morphic Fields and Killing Moon, Battle were together between 1999 and 2007. Bunking PE in South London to play guitar, Jason Bavanandan and Jamie Ellis were inspired in equal measure by The Beatles, Motown, Britpop, and Nirvana. In 2000, the pair left school for Kent University in search of a band, finding Pixies enthusiast, Tim Scudder and, later garage-head, Oliver Davies. After two years of committed practice and sporadic gigging in both the cathedral city and metropolitan London, the group remained unheralded. Leaving Canterbury, Morphic Fields retreated to a disused bank vault under Luton High Street, to continue their work as the Donnie Darko inspired Killing Moon. After a brace of well received gigs in Lewisham, the band secured new management and studio time, leading to the demo, "Tendency" and wider interest. They changed their name to Battle in an attempt to convey how they fought for their dreams. This ideal of struggle and aspiration pervades much of their work.
In 2005, Battle embarked upon a series of small tours, releasing the singles, "Isabelle/ Feel The Same" and "Demons/ Damascus" both of which sold out within days. Support slots with the likes of Bloc Party, The Rakes, and British Sea Power followed.
In February, 2006, relocating to Jacobs Studio, Surrey (where The Smiths recorded much of The Queen Is Dead), the band pushed themselves harder than ever before, under the watchful eye of Gareth Jones. In a ten-day heave of energy, as winter turned to spring, the band finally captured songs for the mini-album, "Back to Earth" as well as several earmarked for next years full length LP.
April saw Tendency hit the UK top 40, with newspaper The Sun calling Battle "the best thing there" after a good showing at the SxSW festival in Texas. In June a further single, "Children" was released. The promotional video filmed to accompany the track found Jason battling invisible, malevolent forces and was produced by Type2error, known for their work with Hope of the States and Bloc Party.
In July, Jacobs Studio was broken into. Copies of Battle's master tapes were among those stolen, with an album named Back to Earth issued on the gray market in plain black cases. This was reputedly originally intended to be the band's debut album. The album was never released, though several tracks were included on Back to Earth and its B-sides in October, with the band citing a wish to record new material.
In 2007 new single "The Longest Time" was released on July 2nd, in advance of their showing at the summer festival circuit. The majority of the new album was reputedly written in the six months preceding its recording. A new album, also titled Break the Banks, was released on September 3rd 2007. It contained 3 tracks from the 2006 sessions, 6 new songs and a re-recording of "Demons."
The band were forced to postpone gigs due to illness within the band on September 17th, and this was their last official communique with the world. Disappointing album sales, tension from within, and a lukewarm critical response meant that the band was simply no longer a viable proposition. The band broke up on October 3rd and a final single "Paper Street" was released in London limited to 5000 copies on October 23rd.
2) Battle was a Finnish black metal band before they changed their name to Ravening. They released one demo called War Messiah in 1998 which contained three songs entitled "War Messiah," "Inhuman Breed," and "Bloodhunger."
3) Battle:Also a Korean male band with dance beat genre.

Battle Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Something caught inside, but nothing you could revive.
Scratch your name in fairy lights, in the letter of the law.
When you're so polite, it makes me move like Superfly.
No matter what you sell, I still buy it, I still buy it.
Your devastating eyes justifies it, justifies it.
No, no, no, I demand to stop!
Oxygen,
Travelling in oxygen,
Straight to the heart of it,
And then I forget everything I am breathing in.
Never had an eyewitness - nobody sees you floating through
Oxygen.
Plan this journey to the end.
Before, you were a friend;
Won't it come again?
When will it come again, come again?
The lyrics to Battle's song Oxygen are a metaphorical representation of the journey of life, from beginning to end. The first line, "Plan this journey to the end," is an indicator to make calculated decisions in life to reach an end goal. There's a sense of pressure that comes with this journey, as the path ahead is unknown and, therefore, offensive. "Something caught inside, but nothing you could revive," reflects how certain things may weigh us down or hold us back, but we can't always find a way to fix them. However, the next line, "Scratch your name in fairy lights, in the letter of the law," suggests a desire to leave a prominent and memorable mark, to make oneself known and recognized.
Moving on to the next verse, the lyrics continue with a contradictory statement, "When you're so polite, it makes me move like Superfly." It expresses how being polite and kind can, in fact, motivate and energize us. The chorus talks about oxygen, which is the essence of life that we inhale to breathe, and how we move through it, suggesting moving forward with life. The line "No matter what you sell, I still buy it," describes how we readily accept whatever life throws at us, even if we may not like it. It's justified by the "devastating eyes," a reflection of how we choose to justify our decisions and choices.
Overall, the song encourages listeners to take control of their lives, face their fears, and plan their journeys to get to the end goal. Even though the path may seem daunting and unknown, it's important to keep moving forward and accept the hurdles that come our way.

Oxygen,
Oxygen,
Travelling in oxygen,
Transporting in oxygen,
Straight to the heart of it,
Directly to the core of it,
And then I forget everything I am breathing in.
Afterward, I disregard all that I'm inhaling.
Never had an eyewitness - nobody sees you floating through
You've never been seen with a companion - you move through undiscovered.
Oxygen.
Oxygen.
Plan this journey to the end.
Determine the route to the finish line.
Before, you were a friend;
Previously, you were my comrade;
Won't it come again?
Won't we be allies again?
When will it come again, come again?
When will that happen again, happen again?

Make a video about how you train as a defensive tackle or defensive line
Cuz im a dt and I realy want to improve
@brizzyedoitall5254
I'm a starter on defense and I play most of the game. I can give you some tips. Watch the ball at all times. Also fire off the ball. If you fire off the ball faster than the O line if will be easier to get in the back field and get the QB. And one more thing. When you are playing a game, don't even fight with the O lineman in front of you. Just do a swim move or just blow through the gap. Bye and don't forget always stay low.
@bigwillproductions5089

@lorenzoesparza2990
