Watch the new video by London based indie rock quartet The Open Flames for The Right Pill, a track from their Same Time Next Year album. And yes, that's Dirk Benedict.

London based indie rock quartet The Open Flames are adamant to proof that literate lyrics can be used in popular music, without losing the excitement of a band firing on all cylinders

Little girls were swept away by the dozens & killed by the flood while at summer camp & without FEMA FUNDING bedridden & disabled American are going to die from natural disasters they could have been rescued from & warned against.

I have never seen a more incompetent government ever. It’s insane.

You can hear a new Photocopies song (Constant Reminders) + interview on this show tomorrow, hosted by Dave Eastman of @theopenflames.bsky.social. The new song’s more like darker new wave than most Photocopies tracks, and happened very spontaneously. No plans to release it yet, so tune in!
