Thefuries is another face of a practicing artist. They make music for the tranquillity of the souls of survivors of sexual violence: requiems for the living, the living dead and the dead.

In This Moment I'm Living is a wider project that uses sound to surface how trauma changes the way survivors listen. In restructuring sounds and engaging in a process of healing, Thefuries hopes that the listener can experience the work with moments of ease and see the strength of vulnerability.

In This Moment, I’m Living: Ease is a spell blurring the human with the non-human, calling an end to sexual violence.

Lyrics & description

(soft whistle, birdsong, low vibrating, stronger whistles, soft moving water, soft whistle, sharp bronze bell, soft whistle, slow ceramic bell rhythm begins and repeats with the soft water sound underneath)

I study the animals
their capacity to fully rest
and what they choose to eat from the hedge row

I study the plants
quietly abreast their precise pace

the rocks
and their geo logic

how do we translate this wisdom?
to recover in the timeframe of a human life

those of us living are survivors, carrying the past in our bones

no wonder we ache and need to be tended

it is a queer soft touch that heals me
(ceramic bells drop out)

as queer as the earth

(soft whistles over layered, mhmm, sharp whistle, laughter, ceramic bell rhythm returns, soft laughter, bell rhythm returns, some airy and some sharp whistles come under text)

I dance
with fear
in my ears

I dance
with fear
in my belly

I dance
with fear
on my breath

I dance until I am left with nothing but the joy of moving
I dance until I am left with nothing but the joy of moving
but the joy of moving but the joy of moving

(two sharp whistles, ceramic bells stop)

Until I am left with nothing but the joy of moving

(sharp whistle, laughter, wobbly bronze bell, ceramic bell rhythm returns)

we shine in the dirge
we are ingenious
because we have no choice
dead and still living (hummed)

we are unreal
and yet we are everywhere
you know us
you know us
you know us
you know us
you know us
you know us
you know us
you know us
you know us
you know us
you know us
you know us
you know us
you know us
you know us
you know us

survival can look like many harmful things
many beautiful things
many maddening things
many confusing / harmful things (layered)
many powerful things
survival can look like many ingenious things

and you we are amongst you
breathing
trying to feel the ground that we all walk on

we have no choice
but to use our ingenuity
to move outside of a world created to protect the violence of the weak

survival can look like many harmful things (hummed)

(ceramic bell rhythm starts to glitch softly)

No more power will be taken
No more power will be taken (doubled)
No more power will be taken (doubled)
No more power will be taken (doubled & harmonised)
No more power will be taken (increasing in voices & harmonised)
No more power will be taken
No more power no more power (once alone and then overlapped and layered with the following lines)
No more power will be taken (many voices)
No more power will be taken (ceramic bell rhythm stops)
No more power will be taken
No more power will be taken (single voice)
