1) Composed of the maze on vocals and der mate on keyboards, BLANK is italy’s most addictive project in the industrial dance realm. Drawing inspiration from early italian acts such as Pankow and Templebeat, as well as modern dance legends Paul Oakenfold and Tiesto, Blank caught the attention of the electro underground with their self-produced demos released in 2000 and 2001.
Their music is for the dancefloor and for the heart, combining thought-provoking lyrics with an overdose of energy to create new, fresh, and exciting dance music.
Signed to canadian label Artoffact records they have released their debut ep, “Overhead”, and their first full-length, “Artificial Breathing”, in early 2004. They have also teamed up with icon of coil project moonitor for some full-on dance hits on "Uturn 3 / The dark side of the beat" cd.
After 3 years of work, Blank have come back with a digital-only EP called "Hellbound", released in june 2007, and their long-awaited second album, "Impact Zone", in March 2008
2) Blank is a danish rock band based in the region Jylland. Inspired by Beatles, HIM, The Calling, Sting, KingsX, Dandy Warhols, Dave Matthews, Nirvana and etc, They were founded in 1997 and with their two labeled albums "Aiming for the moon" and the latest "End of chapter" they have set the standard of catchy melodies and vocal harmonies.
3) Blank got their start playing all-ages punk shows in various basements and fire halls in the Annapolis, MD, area in 1992. The group had a very explosive raw sound that incorporated the sincerity and pop hooks of East Bay pop-punk bands Samiam and Jawbreaker with the edgier more disjointed sounds of their Washington D.C. neighbors Jawbox and Nation of Ulysses. Blank's songs were both chaotic and extremely catchy at the same time. It was as if their super-infectious melodies were just dying to break through the chaotic noise. The group started as a five-piece with Ryan Shelkett on vocals, the dual guitar attack of Kerry Silanskis and Noah Chace, Shannon Mitchell on bass, and John Welch on drums.
The group eventually made their way up to Baltimore's small yet fertile indie rock scene where they stood out as one of the few Baltimore underground bands to concentrate on a more melodic sound. During this period the group released its first full-length CD, The Tab Street Affair, on Vermin Scum and 2% Muscle Records. The group at the same time began to build up a small but loyal following throughout the Annapolis-D.C.-Baltimore region. 1996 saw Blank slim down to a four-piece, with Shelkett picking up second guitar duties and a new rhythm section featuring Tom Kerner on bass and Leroy Blades III on drums.
The new lineup combined with Shelkett's matured songwriting made for less noise and more melody, which gained the group an even wider audience. Blank then recorded The Race EP for the local Baltimore punk label Reptilian Records and toured the U.S. to support it. A year later the group toured again extensively throughout America. In 1997 they recorded Anywhere but Here, which would be their final album before calling it quits. Throughout the group's five-year career they appeared on several compilations and were extremely prolific in releasing singles for various independent labels.
After the group split, Shellkett went on to form the emo rock quartet Cross My Heart, who released three albums on New York independent label Deep Elm. ~ Rick Kutner, All Music Guide

Event Horizon
Blank Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We're beyond this horizon
Dreaming of great escapes by running around in circles
But I'll get used to flaws 'cos grief has no more chances to change the way I feel
Who knows where hope can be
I'm talking to myself and shouting out at you
But i can't understand what am I going to do
You feel a thousand beats per minute and there's nothing else to find
I'll never reach the time that almost ran away
Learn from experience
There are no words to say
I have no more control on anything I care
I've closed my input channels to be myself forever
It's strange you've got the power to make your own free choices
Collecting endless failures
Collecting blaming voices
This anger comes sometimes to guide us slowly out
To recreate some passion
To recreate old situations
We're living difficult times
We're beyond this horizon
Dreaming of great escapes by running around in circles
But now the time is up and there's no place to hide
For every yin a yang
For every word a lie
The lyrics of Blank's song "Event Horizon" depict a sense of hopelessness and despair felt during difficult times. The mention of "horizon" symbolizes the limit of what one can perceive or attain. The idea of "running around in circles" suggests that the singer feels trapped and unable to make significant progress. Despite this, the singer acknowledges their imperfections and accepts them as part of the journey. The idea of grief having no more chances to change how they feel suggests a sense of acceptance and moving on from past pain.
The second verse presents a sense of confusion as the singer talks to themselves and shouts out at someone else, but they can't understand what to do. The line "you take a worried look back to what you've left behind" shows a sense of longing for the past or something left behind. The reference to the heart beating rapidly and the inability to find anything else suggests a feeling of being lost or stuck in a tough situation. The idea of never reaching the time that almost ran away suggests a missed opportunity or regret.
The final verse talks about the power of making free choices and collecting failures and blaming voices. The idea of anger coming to guide us out symbolizes the potential for growth through difficult situations. The mention of "every yin a yang, for every word a lie" suggests a balance between good and bad, and the idea that not everything is as it seems.
Line by Line Meaning
We're living difficult times
These are challenging times for us
We're beyond this horizon
We have surpassed a difficult situation
Dreaming of great escapes by running around in circles
We yearn for a way out, but we feel trapped in the same cycle
But I'll get used to flaws 'cos grief has no more chances to change the way I feel
I will learn to accept imperfections because sadness no longer has the power to alter my emotions
Who knows where hope can be
It is uncertain where hope can be found
I'm talking to myself and shouting out at you
I am speaking aloud to myself and directing my words towards you
But i can't understand what am I going to do
I am unsure of what actions to take next
You take a worried look back to what you've left behind
You glance back with concern at what you have left in the past
You feel a thousand beats per minute and there's nothing else to find
Your heart races rapidly, and there is nothing else to discover
I'll never reach the time that almost ran away
I will never return to the moment that nearly slipped away
Learn from experience
Gain knowledge from previous encounters
There are no words to say
Adequate words are difficult to express
I have no more control on anything I care
I am no longer in charge of the things I value
I've closed my input channels to be myself forever
I have shut down my channels of communication to remain authentic forever
It's strange you've got the power to make your own free choices
It is peculiar that you possess the ability to make your own decisions
Collecting endless failures
Accumulating countless mistakes
Collecting blaming voices
Gathering accusatory voices
This anger comes sometimes to guide us slowly out
Anger can sometimes motivate us to move forward gradually
To recreate some passion
To rekindle some enthusiasm
To recreate old situations
To revisit past scenarios
But now the time is up and there's no place to hide
The time has run out, and there is nowhere to conceal
For every yin a yang
For every positive, there is a negative
For every word a lie
For every truth, there is a falsehood
