    Vocalist Anders Jacobsson comments:
    "Sorrow Of Sophia was the first lyric, and one of the first songs written for Under A Godless Veil. This was years ago now, and I remember I’d just finished a lecture on Gnostic cosmology by Terence McKenna. He’d been speaking of the goddess Sophia’s ordeal and her story affected me on a very deep level. It’s sad yet heart-wrenchingly majestic bringing all of existence into it. I knew I had to do something with it for DRACONIAN as I was already having a few of Johan’s new song-ideas. This sparked what was later to become a whole album inspired by this story. It started here, with this song.
    “Sorrow Of Sophia” is a complex song about a complex spiritual being. With it comes a diverse nature consisting of an initial minimalist soulful expression to feisty, heavy riffing with a harsh demonic formula to post-rock melancholia and symphonic soundscapes. Heike’s pure and crystalline vocals are beautifully entrenched holding the very spirit of the song."

    My daughter's name is Sofia (Brazil), and since 2001 i had a band called "Draconi", a name inspired by the Paradise Lost album Draconian Times...law of attraction maybe. "Sorrow of Sophia" is beatiful. Congratulations, Draconian!

    Sophia is forgiven
    The mother of our prison
    Sophia is glistening
    Always weeping for the world
    She's apprehension
    And her eyes torn by guilt
    And we have these souls
    And through her we are ascension
    The grandeur of stillness
    And all of her sadness
    As lives cry out in torment
    You are the everlasting sun
    From the spark of countless eons
    You are weeping for the world
    And we sleep with the tides where we were lulled into matter
    Holding the burden of time
    And we wake in the midst of a world about to shatter
    Shedding the burden of time
    And from my window I saw the darkness ignite
    And a goddess concealed in shadow
    Seducing the stars and the flaming Gaia
    I came here from the waters to invoke
    The spirit within you
    I came to remind you
    But you are lost in a sea of dark
    Sophia is forgiven
    The mother of our prison
    She's stuck in deafening winds
    The whispering in the fields, in the trees and stone
    The sorrow and the guilt
    It broke through the spheres and fed the demons inside
    And we sleep with the tides where we were lulled into matter
    Holding the burden of time
    And we wake in the midst of a world about to shatter
    Shedding the burden of time

    The more i listen to this song, i feel that the goddess Sophia is is the personification of all our depression, sorrows, grief, sadness, and deep inner emotions. Anders Jacobsson's vocals speaks out as the person experiencing these emotions.
    "She is the mother of our prison." The mother who has given birth to those emotions we bear. The prison is all of those emotions we bear that keep us feeling like we are trapped. It becomes a burden yet all the pain of it is what gives us strength and purpose to live on. It never goes away and is something we will eventually have to accept. We even forgive Sophia and because we have a reason for those feelings, The pain of it all becomes so loud and deafening on the inside, but it whispers outside and we can hardly catch the attention of others. However we eventual feed the demons and give into our sins until we can comprehend and understand her. Sophia is ultimately what we see through all our pain and everything we go through. Then we can finally learn to have absolution in the end.
    After all, I am very impressed with how this band has transformed over the decades and being my number one since middle school. They have always kept that melancholic vibe and deep atmosphere to their music while staying fresh, improving, and adding something new. The vocals in this song are top notch. This is the one band i will never turn away from despite all the times I've been through because it has always been there like my significant other. Something i can never turn away from and reflect upon.

    According to the gnostic mythos presented here so far, Sophia “fell” from the pleroma (the “light land” as it is referred to in the Pistis Sophia) and became imprisoned in this “aeon” or local dimensional reality, by the demiurge and lead archon called, Yaldabaoth who, it is told, stole her divine light.

    Oh I'm late, as a guy that loves Katatonia, My Dying Bride, Mourning Beloveth, Virgin Black, Morphia, Shape of Despair, Novembers Doom, and I am discovering it now?
    I was a Doom/Death guy in the past, today I listen sometimes, but still listen, now I consider myself a Post-Rock guy because I read while I listen to music.
    I consider Post-Rock and Doom/Death cousins, I think the influence of Doom/Death on Post-Rock is really high in bands like: April Rain, Baulta, Balmorhea, God Is An Astronaut, If These Trees Could Talk, Meniscus, Jakob, Tides From Nebula, Collapse Under The Empire etc. :) But it's just a matter of opinion, I didn't do any research about it.
    I don't know every time I saw written "Draconian" I thought: "I know it, it's Serenia", I don't know why I did that association in the past.

      Check out If These Trees Could Talk, Tides From Nebula, Besides, Collapse Under The Empire, I confess that If These Trees Could Talk is my favorite one, their album "Solstice" is pure Doom/Death. Theses I'm talking now is more closer to Doom/Death.
      I'm still listen to Katatonia every week, it's my favorite band, their prog drums are amazing. "Lethean", "My Twin" etc.
      That's why Rick Miah from MDB was my favorite drummer, he was a progressive drummer. I known Katatonia created a new music genre but still is a child of Doom.
