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.

Vacuum Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The road where I belong
Snow on the window screen
I ride the storm
Headlight into the dead of night
Color the forest white
Open up your mind
Truth is what you'll find
Go into the void, go into the void
The void
Open up your mind
Go into the void
Taking a ride
I'm easy on your eyes
Dance of a million stars
I paint the sky
Headlight into the dead of night
Color the forest white
The lyrics of Vacuum's song "Void" describe the experience of driving on a snowy road at night. The singer describes feeling at home on the road and being able to ride through a storm. The snow on the window screen and the headlights illuminating the empty forest create a stark, serene and peaceful visual in the mind's eye of the listener.
The chorus encourages the listener to "open up your mind" and explore the void. The void being interpreted as an unknown, a place outside of our comfort zone and the equivalent of the fear of the dark. The singer suggests that the truth can be found in the void, and that by exploring it, one can discover a new level of understanding.
The second verse continues the theme of exploration but also takes on a more romantic tone. The singer refers to themselves as "easy on your eyes" and describes the beauty of the night sky as a dance of a million stars that they are painting with the headlights. This may reflect the idea that it is easier to explore the void or unknown when done with someone else, with a lover or a friend.
