In Frank's Words
- “We start off back on the banks of the muddy Thames, with the fisher king (from 'Tape Deck Heart') feeling sorry for himself, but this time, rather than wanting to throw himself in the river and die, he's going 'Fuck it, I'm going to do…”
— NME: PSFNP track-by-track standouts, 2015 - “We happened to live an equal distance from The Angel Islington, so if we left at the same time on foot we’d arrive there simultaneously.”
— Blunt Magazine: Opening Up with Frank Turner - “We could both walk out of the house and meet there. My dad's family are from North London, and I feel very at home there.”
