In Frank's Words

  • “Stylistically, I wanted the album to be episodic, by which I mean, I wanted each song to follow its own path as far as it goes. So this probably isn't the 'punkest' record I've made, but this song is one of the most musically aggressive…”
    — Louder: Be More Kind track-by-track, 2018
  • “1933 was the year that the Nazis took power in Germany. Obviously I'm quite consciously aware of Godwin's Law... [track described as] more of a traditional angry punk song. It seemed like a good way to come out of the gate swinging.”
    — NME: Frank Turner interview 2018 (Be More Kind), 2018
  • “The idea that Breitbart or Steve Bannon think they have anything to do with punk rock makes me extremely angry. These ideas are surfacing again that collectively as a species we've already shot down.”
