1) Sophia is a martial industrial act from Sweden. The band is the brainchild of Peter Bjärgö (born Peter Pettersson), also of Arcana. Using martial and heavy industrial rhythms, choral sections, neoclassical orcestration and dark ambient soundscapes, Sophia crafts a dark and oppressive soundscape of nihilism, bitterness and sorrow.
Sophia was first started in 1998 when Peter Bjärgö recorded plenty of songs as a side project to Arcana. Those songs were unfortunately destroyed and the thought of a harscher side project blossomed again in 2000. The first album was recorded with the intention of making songs for a live performance. Together with Per Åhlund, Peter Bjärgö performed a few live shows and in 2001 the first release came out, entitled "Aus Der Welt". In 2001 Ia Bjärgö, Peter's wife, joined the band and the jounrey moved on. With the albums "Herbstwerk", "Seduction of Madness", "Death,Dumb and Blind" along with" Spite", Sophia became one of the most well known and recognized underground industrial bands in the world. When Ia Bjärgö 2retired" from Sophia, Stefan Eriksson entered as a new co-worker to Peter. After the release of "Deconstruction of the World", which he also made together with Stefan Eriksson, Sophia was put torest for many years. It wasn't until 2010 when Peter joined forces again together with ia Bjärgö and Per Åhlund again. New songs are recorded, plans for a new album is at hand and a few live gigs have already been done. Welcome to the new era of SOPHIA.

2) Indie band Sophia includes The Flower Shop Recordings mainman and former The God Machine singer/guitarist Robin Proper-Sheppard. After the sudden and tragic death of schoolfriend and God Machine bassist Jimmy Fernandez, Proper-Sheppard began searching for a new musical outlet. Together with friends and fellow musicians from other Flower Shop bands Elevate, Ligament and Oil Seed Rape, Proper-Sheppard began working on the music that would become known as Sophia. Citing influences such as Neil Young, Uncle Tupelo and Sparklehorse, early albums Fixed Water (1996) and Infinite Circle (1998) were much more acoustic-based and given the circumstances understandably more melancholic than The God Machine while People Are Like Seasons (2004) and Technology Won't Save Us (2007) started to return to a more electrically dynamic and orchestrated sound. There Are No Goodbyes was released via The Flower Shop/City Slang in 2009.

Sophia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
本気で行かないかい？
ねぇ 見えているだろう？
でかいヤツがくるぜ！
抱えて来た物は
そこに置いてけばいい
息継ぎが無くとも 速く泳げる様に
いつまでアンタ 傍観者のままさ
平和主義者主張する前に
断食しなさい！
悟りを開きなさい！ 山で！
全然でっかい波には
呑み込まれちゃうから
まともに向かっても溺れちゃうね
風が変わる瞬間にすり抜けて
パドリング
ねぇ 波が来ないね？
乗る波のがしたね？
歳をとる度色んな物が
まとわりついて来るけど
地元じゃ昔あだ名は"ミサイルマン"
本気になれば マジ切れすれば
泳ぐぜっ！
重い服を脱いで 裸で飛び出せば
どんな エライ人でも 捕まるぜ
その笑顔も連れて行こう
邪魔にはならないさ
全然でっかい波には
呑み込まれちゃうから
まともに向かっても溺れちゃうね
風が変わる瞬間に
この街をパドリング
風が変わる瞬間に
飛び込んでパドリング
ねぇ ちょっとそろそろさ
岸へ戻らないかい？
流されているだろう？
ラ、ライフガード呼ぶぜっ？
