We Are Fury (stylised as WE ARE FURY, previously known as Fury; stylised as FURY) is a Canadian DJ and music production duo consisting of Joachim Speidel and Stuart Brookes. Taking inspiration from the feeling their music gave them for their stage name, they are known for their remixes, singles, extended plays (EP), and debut album Duality. We Are Fury's music is primarily electronic dance music (EDM) and contains elements of subgenres such as melodic trap, future bass, midtempo, and melodic dubstep.

Growing up in Vancouver, British Columbia, Speidel and Brookes began writing music individually in high school. They met in 2015 while attending university and formed the duo act Fury. They saw success within the British Columbian music scene, crediting local fans and receiving help from pre-established producers Felix Cartal and Ekali. They released their debut extended play (EP) Signal Fires in 2017 and signed their EPs Dawn and Dusk with the record label Seeking Blue. In 2020, We Are Fury released their debut album Duality via Seeking Blue. Throughout the duo's career, they have signed with record labels Monstercat, Lowly, and Ultra. Their music has surpassed more than 20 million plays on streaming services over the first three years of their career.

We Are Fury write and produce their music in FL Studio, a digital audio workstation (DAW) developed by Image-Line. Speidel and Brookes often work together by sending each other musical projects via the internet or by travelling to a recording studio to compose together. The duo often split workloads equally to use their strengths; Speidel writes and produces while Brookes focuses on sound design and song arrangement. The two listed heavy metal and rock music bands, video game music, and Speidel's roots of North American and Latin music as influences for their music production style.

Speidel and Brooke are known for their live performances; We Are Fury have played at various music festivals and show sets such as Fvded in the Park, Contact Festival, and Stacked Festival. They specialize their DJ sets with unique intro and outros and use well-known songs to influence the crowd. Various notable electronic music artists, including Ekali, Felix Cartal, and Illenium, have supported We Are Fury's musical career. The duo launched their DJ mix series For The Moment in 2018.
