Loren Wince, guitarist Michael Roberts, bassist Rek Mohr, and drummer Victor Ribas.
The band first released the independent albums Hurt in 2000 and The Consumation in 2003. Many of the songs from these albums found their way onto their first two major label releases, and The Consumation was re-mastered as The Re-Consumation in 2008. The band received critical (though not commercial) success with their major label debut album, Vol. 1, released on March 21, 2006.

2. Hurt formed in Wrocław, Poland and debuted in 1994 with a tape titled "Babilon". In 1997 they released a live album "Serki dietetyczne". At that time they were a little known, some would say underground band. All that started to change when the biggest independent label in Poland became interested in them and so came the cd for SP Records called "Musisz to kupić" (1999). After that record the band got their first drummer, before that they played with automatic percussion. You can still hear it in their style.
After that follwed another cd "Dokładny czas". (2000)
Then the group stopped touring for a while and almost put an end to it's existence. However, after some personnal changes they've returned in 2005 with "Czat" contaning the hit "Załoga G" and started touring more then usual. In summer 2006 Hurt toured with happysad.

Hurt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'cause I won't
Yeah I could look alive today but I won't
'cause I won't
But somewhere on the radio could you hear me?
Can you heal me?
Somewhere on the radio can you hear me,
'cause I'm screamin! screamin'...
No, don't want to miss you anymore
Or the lines on your face,
Or the things I can't change
No, I don't want to miss them anymore.
'cause today is the first time,
The first in a long time,
Where I've felt the need to hold on
And I'll be damned if you take this
This day that I've made and
You make it where I shouldn't be strong
I would have murdered for it
I'll put words to it when it hurts a bit
Then I thank God for this...
Yeah, I could go to town today
But I won't, 'cause I won't
Yeah, I could play the clown today,
But I won't, 'cause I won't
When somewhere in the place I love
Does he hold you?
Like I used to?
As you stare at his microphone
Do you choke and then call out my name?
Screamin'
And somewhere on the radio can you hear me?
Could you heal me?
And somewhere on the radio did you hear me?
Can you heal me?
Yes, somewhere on the radio can you hear me?
Can you heal me?
Somewhere out there where the fiddles play
Could you hear me? can you heal me?
The song "On The Radio" by Hurt is an emotional track about a person who is struggling to move on from a past relationship. The opening lyrics suggest that the person is feeling lethargic and does not want to engage with the world around them. The repetition of "I won't" is indicative of a lack of motivation or desire to do anything. However, in the midst of this apathy, there is a request being made: "somewhere on the radio could you hear me, can you heal me?" The person is looking for some kind of connection or solace through listening to music.
The second verse introduces more specific imagery relating to the past relationship. The person wonders if their ex-partner is with someone else now and how they might be feeling. There is a jealousy present, as the person imagines them holding someone in the way they once held them. This verse also references a microphone, suggesting that the ex-partner may be a performer or singer. The chorus repeats the plea to be heard and healed through music, with the added desire to not miss the past relationship anymore.
The bridge of the song is pivotal, as it suggests a shift in the person's attitude. They declare that today is the first day in a long time that they have felt the need to hold on. They are determined to be strong and not let their ex-partner or their memories take away this newfound strength. The final lines of the song express gratitude for this moment of strength, even if it comes with pain.

Yeah I could go outside today but I won't
'cause I won't
Although I could leave my house today, I am choosing not to do it.

'cause I won't
I have the option to act like everything is okay today, but I don't feel like doing it.
But somewhere on the radio could you hear me?
Can you heal me?
I'm hoping that somehow my message is reaching someone out there who can understand me and help me feel better.
Somewhere on the radio can you hear me,
'cause I'm screamin! screamin'...
I feel like I'm shouting into the void, but maybe someone with a radio could hear my voice and understand my pain.
When I don't want to miss you anymore
No, don't want to miss you anymore
Or the lines on your face,
Or the things I can't change
No, I don't want to miss them anymore.
I'm tired of feeling sad about the things I can't change or the person I lost, and I want to start moving on and finding peace.
'cause today is the first time,
The first in a long time,
Where I've felt the need to hold on
And I'll be damned if you take this
This day that I've made and
You make it where I shouldn't be strong
After a long time of feeling hopeless, I finally feel like I want to hold on tight to this moment of hope and strength. I won't let anyone take that away from me.
I would have murdered for it
I'll put words to it when it hurts a bit
Then I thank God for this...
I value this feeling of hope so much that I would have done almost anything to get it. Even if it hurts later, I'm grateful for it right now.
Yeah, I could go to town today
But I won't, 'cause I won't
Yeah, I could play the clown today,
But I won't, 'cause I won't
I could pretend to be happy and go out with friends, but I don't feel like doing that right now.
When somewhere in the place I love
Does he hold you?
Like I used to?
As you stare at his microphone
Do you choke and then call out my name?
Screamin'
I wonder if you miss me like I miss you when you're with someone else. Sometimes I wonder if you think of me too when you're singing into a microphone somewhere.
And somewhere on the radio can you hear me?
Could you heal me?
And somewhere on the radio did you hear me?
Can you heal me?
Yes, somewhere on the radio can you hear me?
Can you heal me?
Somewhere out there where the fiddles play
Could you hear me? can you heal me?
Maybe if I keep shouting into the void, someone out there will hear me and help me feel better. Somewhere out there, someone could understand my pain, even if it's just for a moment.
