Backstory:
Blank Condition was formed in the heart of Detroit in 2007, originally as a college garage band. Comprising of four friends – lead vocalist, Max Keogh, guitarist, Eddie McClure, bassist, Zak Jackson, and drummer, Carl Russo. Each member brought something unique to the table, with varying musical influences that ranged from blues to punk rock, forming their distinctive sound. It was in their sophomore year that a late-night jamming session in the college dorm led to the creation of their first demo, catching the attention of a local recording studio, who gave them their first big break.

“Shadows in the Light”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Am Em G D
Lost in the echoes of yesterday,
Am Em G D
Chasing tomorrow as it slips away.
C G A D
Is it a dream or just a fight?
C G A D
Are we shadows in the light?
(Chorus)
Am Em G D
We are the echoes of a forgotten tale,
Am Em G D
Sailing in a sea where the bravest fail.
C G A D
Together we stand, divided we fall,
C G A D
In the end, we’ll conquer all.
(Verse 2)
Am Em G D
Dancing on the edge of the midnight sky,
Am Em G D
Burning bright, yet afraid to fly.
C G A D
Is it the dawn or the end of night?
C G A D
Are we shadows in the light?
(Chorus)
Am Em G D
We are the fragments of an ancient song,
Am Em G D
Roaming in a world where we don’t belong.
C G A D
Holding on tight, embracing the fall,
C G A D
In the end, we’ll conquer all.
