    This album is a rock-opera covered in moss and lichen, a hypnotizing hymn that guides us through an expressive landscape of cathedral building. STÄSJ's refined vocals flow, meander, and pour directly into the soul through poetic lyrics paired with impressive yet delicate melodies and ever-expanding beats. With her album ‘BUILDING A CATHEDRAL’ STÄSJ has once again created a universe for us to lose and rediscover ourselves in.

    The album contains eight songs which together form a contemporary reflection on the human condition: the endless quest for growth and unavoidable need for change that define our era. They form a call to stage for cathedral builders, for people with a deep breath and an endless stash of stamina. Connectors that untangle the destructive and entangle the sustainable, the regenerative.

    The album on Vinyl comes with a beautiful inlay especially made for LP of the work titled ‘Cathedral’ made by Rotteveel Vermeer, inspired by the colorful yet delicate beauty of stained glass windows. Photography and graphic design by Studio Another Day.

lyrics

LADY WITH ARROWS

Here’s the body that wants to be caressed
Here’s the body that just wants to eat
Here is the eye that shows and knows
Some hearts melt, some hearts just beat

Hear the symphony of cowards
Hear the shadow of wild fruits
Hear the extra heartbeats for all my lovers
Hear them, clever lady nature.

Lady with arrows
Show your thighs
Lady with arrows
Fire your signs

Lady with arrows
Give me the shivers
Lady with arrows
Run down my spine

Your beautiful breathing
To encourage my bleeding
Slaughters the invisible
Purifies the physical

Here’s the tender hour
Of shared suffering
Hear the thriving of the muse
Dissolving fears through playing
It might feel strange

Hear the obstructive colors
of nightshades rushin’ in
Here are fire sparks on tongues
That banish rules of stupidity

Lady with arrows
Lady, save my endings
Lady with arrows
Colour my time
