“The anarchists put the thing upside down. They declare that the proletarian revolution must begin by doing away with the political organization of the state.

“I made songs really for myself - I didn't ever expect to put it out there and make this a record for mass consumption, this was really just a way for me to get out of my own situation and reclaim that part of myself - so when making the songs, I wanted a testament to what I'd gone through, I wanted a snapshot of those moments.”
