With over 70 shows under their belt not only in Scandinavia but also in USA and more the band has shown what they can dish out. Although the band's first single might show a bit of the lighter side of Blowsight, don't be fooled. You can count on some hard driving guitars, raw but yet beautiful melodic vocals and plenty of drum abuse to come shortly after.
"We've been doing what we love most for the last 4 years while mailing demos to every record label we could find. Who would have thought we would end up getting signed for a single ("I'll Be Around") by Sony/BMG because of an internet website", vocalist/guitarist Niklas adds.
One day the band decided to upload some songs on a website called allears.se and all of a sudden they have over 25,000 plays in just two months and all 4 of their demo songs are sittin' on the top of the most sold charts.
Their debut album "Destination Terrorville" was released by the band themselves in June 2007, and has been recieved with great reviews. In summer of 2007, the band played the material at large festivals such as the Sweden Rock Festival, Rockoff and the Skellefteå Festival. In 2009, 'Destination Terrorville' is being released through Fastball Music/Sony on August 21, refueled with the bonus track 'Teenage Rockstar'
Blowsight's eagerness to experiment and evolve is lighting up their musical diversity. While the band's music has always been deeply personal, the songs can be felt emotionally by everyone who listens.

Blowsight Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah yeah Yeeah
We are all searching slowly
Does everything mean no?
I know I'm striking gold when (striking gold)
I see your body glow
But I guess it's true what they always say
I didn't know I could be in this position
Let us be stronger than we are today
The one I see could make me change myself
I want to be like you (and do everything you do)
Support me I don't think too much of myself
And oh, my dreams are few
I didn't know you could be this close to me yeah
But I guess it's true what they always say
I didn't know I could be in this position
Let us be stronger than we are today
One year leaves us where we are today
One year leaves us where we know that we're not alone
(not alone, not alone, not alone)
We know that we're not alone
But I'm still in this position
Let us be stronger than we are today
Because today is the day
when we have to say, that we shall never be turned away
Cannot be turned away x 3
I didn't know you could be this close to me yeah
But I guess it's true what they always say
I didn't know I could be in this position
Can we be stronger than we are today?
The lyrics of Blowsight's song In This Position seem to be about a strong connection with someone and the desire to be like them. The first stanza is about questioning everything and searching for answers. The singer finds something significant in the other person when they see their body glow, which suggests that they feel a deep connection. The second stanza suggests that the other person is a positive influence on the singer's behavior and character, and they aspire to be more like them. They also express a lack of confidence in themselves and their abilities.
The third stanza brings up the passage of time and how it affects relationships. The singer acknowledges that they are not alone and that they have found someone to lean on. However, they still feel vulnerable and in need of support. The final stanza seems to be a call to action, urging both the singer and the other person to be strong and not to give up. They want to remain in this position with the other person and grow stronger together.
Overall, the lyrics explore the idea of vulnerability and the strength that can come from a deep connection with someone. It's a moving expression of a desire for a supportive, loving relationship and the willingness to work to keep it intact.
