Sexual violence doesn’t start and end with rape
It starts in our books and behind our school gates
Men are scared women will laugh in their face
Whereas women are scared it’s their lives men will take

FAQ & Knowledge Song “Mother”

ℚ. What have the artists said about the song?
The song is somewhat about my Mum, but it’s a bit also about the role of women in my life and the misconception of women and motherhood. She was an alcoholic and worked long hours and suffered the consequences. The song is just exploring these subjects in an abstract kind of way.

— Talbot for Wired Noise

“Mother” was a song that explored the roles of my mother and, in turn, of women in my life. The lyric you plucked was inspired by a Margaret Atwood quote which opened my mind to sexual violence and led me to think of my mother’s past relationships and her vulnerability as a woman beyond her as a mum. “Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them.” I didn’t want the song to lead the listener down a certain path, but intend to open up conversations of womanhood.
