1. Be… Read Full Bio ↴There are more than one music artists known by the name Beach.
1. Beach is a female rapper from Los Angeles, California. She is signed under an independent record label, Hawk-I-Entertainment. Her music has gone viral and she has a growing group of fans, many of whom discovered her on Youtube and her bandcamp profile.
2. The game is up and running. Beach, a guitar/bass/drums trio from Berlin, release their second album and finally become a part of Sinnbus. With its shattered rock mannerisms and well-structured arrangements, filigree and massive stone, Play It To Death is a vehement prototype of what rock music can be today. It shows how it can and how it should break with stereotypes and still be damn serious about itself. How it may send and receive, how it may shake and shatter and drive itself the hardest.
Beach are dry and concise, firmly reduced to their given means, and so they can be both a brutal blow to the face and a fragile and vulnerable network of craving. They bare their souls over fractured beats, they accompany their impact resistant riff contructions with crushed dreams and wishes. Time and again, »Play It To Death« is a witness to a desperate desire, a desire that can only find disappointment in the shallow waters of our times, but that will not cease to remain firm and stoical, resisting any form of blunt reasoning. Everything has to keep falling apart. Fulfillment means arrival means standstill means death.
On Beachs debut record 2nd Hand Cannibals, their anger was constantly boiling, thus prone to quick evaporation. »Play It To Death«, in contrast, restrains its anger until it aches, swallowing and pressing scorn and desperation down to turn excess pressure into energy that is powerful and present, even during the albums softest parts. Beach have discovered what keeps driving them. They have found methods to set the direction. And together, they muster the strength to maneuver this giant of desperation, pressure and vehemence towards its destination.

Back In Time
Beach Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A world to which a man can cling
So happy times when I break out in tears
In the back of my mind I still have my fears
I live my life with her
Love her true she knows I'm sure
I make her happy just living so plain
I tried to run far way from thoughts
I should try to keep away
But they just keep coming back to me
I tried to rationalize
But some day I might realize
That things are just good the way they'll be
I know it's so hard to find
A girl who really understands your mind
What will I do if I leave her
It will always be way in the back of my mind
The lyrics to Beach's song Back In Time are reflective in nature and speak to the theme of living in the present moment while still being haunted by the fears and doubts of the past and potential future. The opening lines, "I'm blessed with everything, A world to which a man can cling," suggest gratitude for the present moment and all that is contained within it. However, the following line, "So happy times when I break out in tears," appears to contradict this sentiment, implicating that there is an emotional undercurrent to the singer's otherwise happy life.
The chorus, "In the back of my mind I still have my fears" provides insight into the cause of the emotional upheaval. Despite his happiness and blessings, the singer is still plagued by the fear of change or uncertainty. This fear leads to doubts and second-guessing in his relationship, "I live my life with her, Love her true she knows I'm sure, I make her happy just living so plain, In the back of my mind I'm 'fraid it's gonna change." The singer is presented with the prospect of losing the happiness and stability he has found in his relationship, and he is grappling with the notion of how to maintain it.
The second verse of the song continues along the same lines, with the singer attempting to escape these pesky fears and doubts, only to find that they are ever-present. He has found someone who understands him, but the fear of losing her still lingers, "I know it's so hard to find, A girl who really understands your mind, What will I do if I leave her, It will always be way in the back of my mind." Ultimately, the song appears to speak to the human condition of wanting to hold onto what we have, but struggling to escape the shadows of the past and future and the inherent uncertainty that comes with it.

I'm blessed with everything
I feel fortunate to have everything I need in life
A world to which a man can cling
I have stability and security in my life
So happy times when I break out in tears
I am overwhelmed with joy that sometimes brings me to tears
In the back of my mind I still have my fears
Despite my blessings, I am still afraid of something going wrong
I live my life with her
I spend my life with my significant other
Love her true she knows I'm sure
I love her deeply and she knows it
I make her happy just living so plain
I bring her happiness by just being myself
In the back of my mind I'm 'fraid it's gonna change
I worry that things might change and our happiness will be affected
I tried to run far way from thoughts
I attempt to distance myself from negative thoughts
I should try to keep away
I know it's best to avoid these thoughts
But they just keep coming back to me
Despite my efforts, these thoughts persist
I tried to rationalize
I attempt to logically process my fears
But some day I might realize
I may come to understand
That things are just good the way they'll be
Things are good just the way they are
I know it's so hard to find
It's difficult to find someone who truly understands you
A girl who really understands your mind
Someone who truly understands your thoughts and feelings
What will I do if I leave her
I worry about what will happen if I were to lose her
It will always be way in the back of my mind
This thought will always linger in my mind

My name is Michael Agnew and my father was Lt. Commander David W. Agnew, the executive officer of the US Naval 2nd Beach battalion. The Battalion landed on Utah Beach, Normandy on June 6, 1944. The Battalion was attached to the US Army's 1st Engineer Special Brigade commanded by Brigadier General James E. Wharton. A news article written by Gen. Whartons orderly, Pvt. Stanley Wysocki, in the 1950's which I have a copy. It states that after the landing Gen.Wharton ( who was later killed) shared a German pill box the size of 15 by 20 with Navy Cdrs. Curtin and Agnew, This pill box today has a monument on top. This obelisk still stands today. On one one side has the tribute to the Army's 1st Eng.Special Brigade and on the other side has the us Naval 2nd Beach Battalions name. The Naval Beach Battalions were the communications link (Beach Master) between the shore and the ships at sea for the orderly transition of men and material to and from the Beach. These Battalions also provided demolition and medical assistance as well. My father was with the 2nd thru North Africa, WIA during the landing on Sicily. Utaha Beach- Normandy. Then was sent to help the 10th Army with beach preparation and terrain studies for the assult on Okinana. After the war he returned to civilian life working with the Navy's Bureau of Yards and Docks. In 1964 while working under Gen.Westmoreland in HQ Support Activity, Saigon, Vietnam. He was killed Christmas Eve when a Viet Cong bomb blew up the US Officers Quarters known as the Brinks Hotel.
