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.

Woman
Sophia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
but at least you're a happy whore
and woman, is it easy to forget
that you really destroyed me
and now, I don't think I'll ever be the same
no the worst thing about this pain is it comes from my understanding
and woman, is it easy to forget
that you destroyed me
and now, I don't think I'll ever be the same
no the worst thing about this pain is it comes from my understanding
but woman, is it easy to forget
and woman, is it easy to forget
woman you're a whore
The lyrics to Sophia's song "Woman" are intense, emotional, and troubling. The artist seems to be talking to a woman who has hurt him deeply, calling her a whore and accusing her of destroying him. However, he also acknowledges that despite her actions, she seems to be happy, which adds another layer of complexity to the situation and his feelings towards her. He is in pain and struggling to understand why this woman has hurt him, but cannot escape the realization that he is also complicit in his own suffering.
The use of the word "whore" is particularly strong and controversial, as it carries a lot of negative connotations and is often used to shame women for their sexuality. It is possible that the artist is using this term to deliberately provoke a reaction or make a statement about the double standards and hypocrisy of society's attitudes towards women and sex. However, it is also important to acknowledge that this language can be hurtful and offensive, and may contribute to harmful stereotypes and misogyny.
Overall, the lyrics of "Woman" are a raw and honest expression of pain, anger, and confusion. They offer a glimpse into the complex and messy nature of human relationships, and the ways in which we can both wound and be wounded by those we love.
