An album with songs from as far back as 2015 till 2023. It contains 8 years worth of life experience. There are songs about various topics such as conspiracy theories, school disdain, role model rejection, rock music, a country rock instrumental track, school shootings, racism, prideful vengeance, car crashes, love lost, & love found. Its a whirlwind of differing emotions and negative attitudes about society at large but ends with a graceful song about love. In the end love blinds us all to the world around us. Hope you enjoy it and listen to it all the way through. I love you all... #tybg

Beacon

Ramblings Inside My Head

This is a stripped down acoustic version of our single "Beacon". It felt natural to do this during the winter time. Our drummer had left the group and we had an emptiness inside of us that we needed to express. The feeling of defeat and loss is what this version of the track embodies. We miss you being in the band Bryan... goodbye dear friend.

The song “Beacon” is about being pressured to be a good role model to others when you don’t see yourself that way. A beacon is a warning signal that is set up high so people can be notified of a danger ahead or approaching. I am now on a pedestal and will be seen for everything I am. My mistakes, my triumphs, they will be showcased to the world. Am I ready? Refer to Matthew 5:14 of the King James Version of the bible for more information. It’s also a song about how no matter how much you change as a person and grow you will still be seen for what you said and did in the past. Certain people can only see you as one version of yourself. You can do many great things in life, but there will be people who only recognize you for your past self and will always see you as such. “You’re slippin’ Jimmy!” – Chuck McGill. I also still see that in myself. The shitty and obnoxious person I was in high school. I can’t forget how mean me and my group of friends were to everyone in school. We said and did shitty things and that’s something that will never change and will follow me for the rest of my life. I’ve accepted it and have changed but it will still be a part of my history never to be erased. All the while at the time claiming to be a Christian until the age of 18. A hypocritical double life that I think many of us have lived.

Beacon (Acoustic)

Rock band from Southern California formed in 2015. The band’s humble beginnings started at a local baptist church where Carlos, Rhythm Guitar player and vocalist, learned to play guitar at the age of 16. His friend from youth group Bryan was also learning the drums. There they joined the worship band and started to rehearse jams outside of church. They would playing Smashing Pumpkins & Nirvana covers as well as try and make original music from doing improvisational jams. In high school they were friends with Hector, the lead guitar player, who met Carlos in computer class. Carlos asked if Hector knew how to jack off and he replied said no. They then became friends. Carlos came up with band name after seeing a sign in his Government class that read, “The Crab Is In”. He thought it was amusing and used the name to create a YouTube channel called “The Crab Is In Entertainment where he would post comedy sketch videos with his friends. He wanted to do a podcast and needed a theme song  for it. He wrote the lyrics to a theme song with his friend Gris during nutrition break. Then he asked Hector to play guitar for the theme song. They recorded it in Hector’s garage (The Tank Studios) and then asked Bryan to play drums on it. The rest was history and the name had slightly changed to “The Crab Is In Everyone” thus “T.C.I.I.E.” was born.
