Produced by Rich Costey, the album was preceded by the single, "Recovery." Described as a "break-up album," ''Tape Deck Heart'' was written and recorded following the collapse of a long-term romantic relationship. Turner stated: "There’s a lot of stuff on this record about loss and failure in relationships, about what happens when something that was supposed to be timeless runs out of time." ''Tape Deck Heart'' has been given a Parental Advisory label due to the profanity heard on tracks "Plain Sailing Weather" and "Good & Gone". The title of the album is taken from a lyric in the song "Tell Tale Signs".

Rock & Roll EP
''Rock & Roll'' is an EP by Frank Turner, released on 6 December 2010 on Xtra Mile Recordings. Describing the release as "a taster" for his subsequent studio album, ''England Keep My Bones'', the EP was preceded by the single, "I Still Believe". Writing and composition Regarding the EP's overall aesthetic, Turner noted, "If the music I make is a spectrum that has acoustic folk stuff at one end, and rock music at the other, with ''Poetry of the Deed'' the needle was over towards the rock end. That's fine to do on occasion, but I think that as a general thing I’d rather be somewhere a bit more in the middle. So that’s the idea with ''Rock and Roll'', and with the new album as well; the idea is to pull things back a little bit."

The bass guitar, electric bass or simply bass (), is the lowest-pitched member of the string family. It is a plucked string instrument similar in appearance and construction to an electric or an acoustic guitar, but with a longer neck and scale length, and typically four to six strings or courses.

It is played primarily with the fingers or thumb, or with a pick. To be heard at normal performance volumes, electric basses require external amplification.
