Sophia ‎– Take those silly heads off their necks, 10寸胶

10寸胶，Arcana首脑计划，2023年新作。限量200。氛围/工业。

10" black vinyl. matte cardboard sleeve with 4 page inlay. limited edition 200 copies

sophia in a nutshell: started in 1998 as a more experimental-minded side-project of arcana, the peter bjärgo-led outfit then released seminal martial industrial albums in the early 2000s via cold meat industry and cyclic law. the 2016 comeback album “unclean” appeared more versatile than ever, with a wide range of sonic expressions from ambient calm to upfront aggression.

'take those silly heads of their necks' proclaims a stance of fundamental disapproval of the ways of civilization, and how could that be more appropriate then in the light of current events? the detached male and female vocal delivery hovers above creepy layers of ambient doom, deeply unsettling noises float in from unexpected angles, an isolated synth line leads the pack into the oblivious nothingness.

not for the faint of heart, this is a classy 18-minute glimpse into nihilism.
