We are thrilled to announce the release of SOPHIA's latest album, a masterful blend of innovative soundscapes and profound lyrical themes. The creation process was nothing short of exhilarating, as the entire record was crafted live. Every track began from scratch, evolving through hours of meticulous tweaking of electronics, testing various effect pedals, and layering sounds. Rhythms were built by experimenting with unconventional instruments and recording techniques, culminating in powerful vocal performances.

This album, like all Sophia releases, took time to perfect. It represents a deliberate evolution in sound, exploring new rhythms while maintaining the signature Sophia production style and critical perspective on society, nature, and our planet. The album's core message reflects a world increasingly consumed by narcissism, where people remain oblivious to the broader impacts of their actions.

Peter Bjärgö has again collaborated with long-time friends Stefan Eriksson, Per Åhlund and wife Ia Bjärgö to deliver this exceptional piece of sonic artistry. This album revives early martial elements with dominant drumming and commanding vocals, setting it apart from previous releases and reaffirming Sophia's unique place in the music landscape. Prepare for an intense and unforgettable auditory journey with Sophia's latest offering.
