    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

PALACES, HOUSES, HUTS

Holding softly
Air in her arms
Her belly a pink cushion
To rest your head upon
She will take care of your skin

Your skin, your bones but above all
Your temporary sorrows
Here are empty palaces, houses and huts
Where lights burn day and night fiery

Be foam and float
No skull to ground
Your echo will never be
Claimed by anyone
She will take care of your skin

Your skin, your bones but above all
Your temporary sorrows
Here are empty palaces houses and huts
Where lights burn day and night fiery
___________
