The band was formed in Umeå, Sweden in the late 90`s, and was consisted of:

Tomas Nilsson - bass
Urban Vikstrom - drums
The band released a self-titled mini-cd in 1997, and two albums (both released through Nuclear Blast ), Modern Cathedral (1997) and Architect of the Mind (1999).
In the fall of '99 Hollow went on a small tour in Norway, along with Norwegian Progressive Metal band Divided Multitude. Playing on Oslo's rock bar Mars, the sound on stage was fatefully loud, and Andreas damaged his ears to the point that rehearsing was no longer possible. Hollow chose to split up, since finding a new singer was never in question, because Andreas was the main sonwriter and leader of the band.
Hollow is now a solo project with all material written and performed by Andreas Stoltz, who has limited his activities only to studio work.

Wounds
Hollow Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I have to close my eyes and bless the night
I should have known that this is far from
What I wanted now I tremble in fear
Hold me now
Close to the warmth of your smile
Watch the sky
WHAT I WANT IS NOT THE THINGS I NEED
Look can't you see me bleed?
The wounds don't seem to heal
WHAT I WANT IS NOT THE THINGS I NEED
Falling I see no end
but still I feed my dream with bleeding hands
I should not have wanted so much more
It seems I sell me like a whore
To realize fragmented unyielding dreams
Hold me now
Close to the warmth of your smile
Watch the sky
Listen to why I can't stand this life
WHAT I WANT IS NOT THE THINGS I NEED
Look can't you see me bleed?
The wounds don't seem to heal
WHAT I WANT IS NOT THE THINGS I NEED
The lyrics to Hollow's song "Wounds" reflect a deep sense of longing and dissatisfaction with life. The opening lines, "See me as I am, I have to close my eyes and bless the night," reveal a sense of vulnerability and a need for escape. The singer seems to be seeking solace in the darkness, perhaps to avoid the pain of the harsh reality of their life.
The next lines, "I should have known that this is far from what I wanted, now I tremble in fear," indicate regret and a feeling of being trapped in a situation they didn't see coming. The chorus of the song, "What I want is not the things I need, look can't you see me bleed? The wounds don't seem to heal," reveals that the singer is struggling to find what they truly want and need in life, and that there is a deep sense of pain and hurt that they are carrying.
The song speaks to the inner struggle of many people who may be seeking something more out of life, something that they feel is missing. The lyrics convey a sense of desperation and the desire for someone to understand and hold them, to provide comfort and relief from their pain. Ultimately, the song suggests that it is important to find a balance between what we want and what we truly need, and that healing from our wounds is an ongoing process.

Despite the pain, I still chase my aspirations with great effort
I should not have wanted so much more
I realize that my ambition led me to want too much
It seems I sell me like a whore
I feel like I'm compromising my values for my desires
To realize fragmented unyielding dreams
I'm struggling to achieve my goals that are broken and unattainable
