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.

Something Evil I Love
Vacuum Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I've got all these questions
No one to ask besides the moon
The listener I knew
Got lost in the blizzard
A storm swept in
Left me in pieces
How you cried
How you cried
Something evil I love
Nothing's cold to me enough
And it's shaping my black heart
And she's dead inside
Winter came tonight
Bringing all these memories
Polaroids they fade alright
The voices in the dark
Echoes over roof-tops
Calling me
Stay from the light
How you cried
How you cried
The song "Something Evil I Love" by Vacuum embodies the feelings of isolation, loss, and despair during the winter season. The lyrics paint a picture of the singer being trapped in a blizzard with nobody to turn to for comfort except for the moon in the sky. The line "Something evil I love" suggests that the singer has a fascination with darkness and the pain that comes along with it. He/she is drawn to things that are cold and lifeless, including a woman who is described as "dead inside."
As the memories of the past flood in during the winter night, the singer becomes overwhelmed with the voices in his/her head. The echoes over rooftops calling him/her to stay away from the light can be interpreted in different ways. It could be a cry for help from the singer's subconscious, warning them of falling into the void of darkness. Or it could be an encouragement to embrace the darkness that lurks within and to let it consume them. The last line "How you cried" is repeated twice, conveying the sense of grief and regret that the singer is experiencing.
Overall, "Something Evil I Love" is a hauntingly beautiful song that tackles the complex emotions of a person who is searching for meaning and purpose in the midst of the unforgiving winter.
