about

Songs From Planet Earth describes a journey from the city to the countryside in search of sanctuary during the Covid-19 pandemic. It stands for us as a record of those times - our anger at those governing our country, the pain of loss, elation in change and our fight to continue as a band.

Featuring John Kennedy Radio X X-Posure Hot Ones 'Know The Score', 'Our Day Will Come' and LOUD WOMEN Singles of the Week 'Bring Down The Government', 'Our Day Will Come'.

'Isolation Days' was the first song written in Spring 2020 in the surreal, early days of that first city lockdown. 'Know The Score' was the last song written for the album and was triggered by Sarah Everard's arrest for breach of lock down regulations and subsequent murder by a serving police officer.

We produced the album ourselves in October 2021 with help from engineer/studio owner Isi Clarke at Grange Farm Studio during a two week residential session. Thank you to Xtra Mile Recordings for having faith in us.

"Deux Furieuses's vital and seismic album 'Songs From Planet Earth' is an album of hope and fire that burns all the brighter in these darkest of times - it is as pertinent now as it was then" XTRA MILE RECORDINGS 2023

"These ten songs provide a chastening scrapbook of images of a broken land. This is protest music in its most sublime expression drawing on the deeply personal. But the personal is political, never more so than this." No.9 Album of 2022 THE PUNK SITE

"What astonishes from the very first notes is the verve and density of the sound they generate — far beyond what might be expected - eloquent and edifying songs for any and all barricades and..the doubting Thomases and Thomasinas out there." THE MORNING STAR ***** 2023

"Songs From Planet Earth is definitely protest done well. The anger is obvious, but it’s also carefully targeted towards those who richly deserve it. A wonderful album with greater depth than anything they’ve done before" HERA SAYS 2023

"Third album of skilful alternative rock from the Furieuses and a reminder once again of what strengths the band has in Ros’s stunning voice, Vas’ way with a martial, syncopated drumbeat and their mutual affinity for catchy-as-hell vocal/musical hooks. Whether on propulsive bangers like ‘Be Water’, ‘All We Need Is Sanctuary’, ‘Our Tribe’ and ‘Bring Down The Government’, or the thoughtfully powerful songs in between, it’s easy to forget that only two people are making all this vital music." LOUD WOMEN Hercury Prize Nomination 2023

"‘Know The Score’ is an immense, raging anthem confronting society’s failure to properly protect women and marginalised genders from violence. Challenging the patriarchy from the off, the track hits you with its potent, riotous energy and fierce, colossal musicality as the all-too-resonant refrain “say her name” echoes with eerie timelessness." GET IN HER EARS 2022

"A masterclass in perfectly channelled rage, in which the quieter more fragile moments hit you just as hard as when the drums pound like an earthquake and the guitars push the needle into the red" JOYZINE 2022

"The true depth of this album is in the songwriting. Music has always had a place bringing power to account and the Two Furies have added to the catalogue of great protest albums documenting a time and place in our lives." FATEA MAGAZINE 2022

"Here come Deux Furieuses with a fire in their belly and a glint in their eyes..Moody, steely guitars and punctuating drums create a fittingly funereal atmosphere for vocalist Ros Cariney to sing over as a way of remembering the over 200,000 UK citizens that died from COVID. "We will never forget" she sings with emotion in every word." LISTEN WITH MONGER 2023

"Do like the forward looking ways of deux furieuses, their positiveness" ORGAN 2022

"An eloquently spat out rallying cry for the people of Britain"
WHEN THE HORN BLOWS 2022

"Fantastic new album" JOHN KENNEDY RADIO X​ 2022
