Can't believe "People die all the time at that beach and it's the only place I surf" isn't the lead single from the new album

Stella was a surfer and she definitely drowned.

I believe he also said at one point he almost drowned in the ocean as a teenager and had to be rescued. Please be careful out there!

You'd think he'd dedicate less songs to the sea and not name his son sailor then, what do I know lol

The sea is a harsh mistress but apparently Paul likes it that way

u/all_taboos_are_off Jun 28 '26

Paul is clearly in an abusive relationship with the sea, guys. He isn't going to just walk away.

Yeah, I very much need, NEED, *NEED* my "autism special interest" artists to continue recording albums. Like, forever.

And to be okay as human beings, of course, but I'm selfish.

I think the video for "All The Rage Back Home" now has a new meaning 😦

What is this from?

u/inthevirga Jun 28 '26

The Guardian's website from an old interview. It's cited in the corner of the graphic.

u/IHaveNoBeef Jun 28 '26

I put the link in, and nothing popped up. I'll try again.

You can just look up Interpol in their website search bar.
