The band consists of vocalist/guitarist/drummer Alex Wall and guitarist/bassist Jordan Malane. The two met in 2010, quickly learning their respective instruments and releasing a five-track EP entitled Virginity in the same year. Live, the band originally performed as a two-piece, with Wall performing both drums and vocals and Malane playing guitar. This would change in late 2011, in which the band brought in a drummer, Brett Janschand; moving Wall to guitar and vocals and Malane to bass.

The band have toured with acts such as The Vines, Step-Panther, Dune Rats and DZ Deathrays. They are known for loose, chaotic and energetic live shows, often resulting in "stage invasions," crowdsurfing and stage dives.

The band released their debut album, Nothing to Do, in March 2012. In 2013, Wall released his debut solo album as Wax Witches, entitled Celebrity Beatings.

Beach Slut
Bleeding Knees Club Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You hold my hand
You held it tight
You won't let go
Throughout the night
You kiss my cheek
Don't pull away
I really wish
That you could stay

You held my hand
You held it tight
You won't let go
Through the night
You kiss my cheek
Don't pull away
I really wish
That you could stay
Cause you're right here by my side

You held my hand
You held it tight
You won't let go
Throughout the night
She kissed my cheek
Don't pull away
I really wish
That you could stay

You hold my hand
You held it tight
You won't let go
Through the night
You kiss my cheek
Don't pull away
I wish that you could stay
And you're right here by my side
And we're staring eye to eye
And I got no words to say

I wish that you could stay
Another day

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Bleeding Knees Club's song Beach Slut describe a romantic encounter between two individuals who seem to be enjoying each other's company.

This gives the impression that they are very comfortable with each other and enjoy being close. The second verse mentions how the person kisses the singer's cheek and they wish that they could stay. This suggests that the singer is enjoying the moment and wishes that it could last longer. The final verse brings the two together, as they are staring eye to eye and the singer wishes that they could stay another day.

The song's title, "Beach Slut," is somewhat misleading as the lyrics have nothing to do with promiscuity or sexual activities. Instead, it seems to be about a meaningful encounter between two people. The upbeat, lively tone of the music may have been chosen to contrast with the more romantic and intimate message conveyed in the lyrics.

Overall, the lyrics to "Beach Slut" depict a sweet and romantic encounter between two individuals who seem to be enjoying each other's company, and who wish that the moment could last longer.

You hold my hand
