As songwriters they have written hits for artists such as Monrose, Garou, Tarja Turunen and Rachel Stevens to name a few. Anders and Mattias met in 1996 when the band Vacuum recorded their first album "The Plutonium Cathedral". They work out of their studio "Home" situated in central Stockholm, Sweden but are constantly on the move to wherever their work takes them.
In 04 Vacuum released the album "Your Whole Life Is Leading Up To This". It was followed by two singles "Six Billion Voices" in 06 and "Walk On The Sun" in 07. Due to high demand as song-writers, Vacuum the band is only active from time to time. The band still enjoys a huge fan-following.

History (unofficial version)
The group was formed in 1996 by Alexander Bard and Anders Wollbeck.
The history of the group can be divided into two distinct parts: before the departure of the group's leader Alexander Bard in 1999 and after his departure, since which the singer Mattias Lindblom has become the group's new leader. The first two full albums of 1997 and 1998 were characterized by classical music influences and socially-, politically- and even astronomically-themed lyrics, which are very unusual for synth pop music; the 2004 album "Your Whole Life Is Leading Up to This", written by Wollbeck/Lindblom, steered away from synth pop to trance/techno and personal lyrics dealing with love and the meaning of life.

Mattias Lindblom - vocals

I Breathe
Vacuum Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Chorus:
I breathe clouds beneath my window.
I see rockets in the sky.
I feel satellites in limbo.
I breathe oxygen up high.
lead and alcohol.
On the radio depending
I sign the protocol.
Hail the audience, the media, peoples everywhere.
In the hours ahead I'll see your?
Green biosphere,
clean biosphere.
Castles in air
Climbing the stair,
way to heaven when?
Chorus
I've been trained to navigate my futurist balloon.
After years a week will see me landing on the moon.
Raise a banner on the planets,
life grows everywhere.
In the manner of the mission?
Green biosphere,
clean biosphere.
Castles in air
Climbing the stair,
way to heaven when?
Chorus
The lyrics of Vacuum's song "I Breathe" are highly metaphorical and imaginative in nature. The chorus talks about the singer's ability to breathe clouds beneath their window, see rockets in the sky, and feel satellites in limbo, indicating their heightened sense of awareness and observation. They also mention loading lead and alcohol in their engine and signing protocols on the radio, which suggests their preparedness for the unknown future.
Further in the lyrics, the singer talks about their space journey on their futurist balloon and how they have been trained to navigate it. The lyrics also talk about planting banners on different planets and seeing life grow everywhere, indicating their desire to explore and conquer new territories. The chorus repeats talking about the singer's ability to breathe in oxygen up high.
Overall, the lyrics seem to convey a message of ambition, adventure, and a desire for exploration beyond the bounds of the earth. It appears to be an invitation for the listener to join the singer on a journey into the unknown and to share their sense of imagination and wonder.
