Last chance!

My song “A.I. (Do My Work For Me)” doesn’t seem quite so cute anymore. 🫤 futurism.com/ai-stop-blac...

Today!

Currently playing my own band with no apologies! When I played Anne-Sophie this song - Sean from The Photocopies' mix of her song Overwhelming - she gasped and said "finally we have a proper upbeat song!" And we do! Thanks @thephotocopies.bsky.social! assistant.bandcamp.com/album/assist...

If you missed it yesterday; perky upbeat indiepop melancholia from Assistant and The Photocopies - we’ve teamed up for a split single and mutual appreciation society! We’re giving any and all proceeds to Cancer Research so please consider picking up 4 tracks for £3 and/or sharing! X

In late March, there’ll be a new on-demand LP compiling all the best Photocopies songs that have yet to be available on vinyl. It’ll be called “Romance versus The Real World” and this is the back cover art, showing the tracklisting. More details nearer the time!

On this day in 2025, the "All That Glitters..." EP was released. It included this song, "No Such Thing As A Simple Life". The EP's only on Bandcamp at the moment, thanks to a distributor mix-up, but it'll be back on several streaming services soon. youtu.be/PrtMF5gYgJo?... #janglepop #indiepop

Can't really ask for higher praise for this remix! Thanks, @patsbus.bsky.social . Thanks also to everyone who bought the EP and thereby supported the important work of Cancer Research UK yesterday. If you didn't hear it yet, it's still available: assistant.bandcamp.com/album/assist...

I attempted to get a video for this song ready in time for #bandcampfriday but it was rubbish. And the song isn't rubbish. So, listen to this, close your eyes, and imagine your own video. It'll be better. thephotocopies.bandcamp.com/track/headsp... #indiepop #indierock #poprock

Brilliant new double single from @assistant.bandcamp.com & @thephotocopies.bsky.social 🙂 And it's Bandcamp Friday 😍 assistant.bandcamp.com/album/assist... And all proceeds go to Cancer Research 😎 #newmusic #bandcamp #bandcampfriday

(1/2) Tomorrow, it'll be one year since the "All That Glitters..." EP was released. Most of the EP also appears on the "Lo-fi vs. Yr Hi-fi" double CD... and there are only 5 copies of that left now! thephotocopies.bandcamp.com/album/lo-fi-...

As usual, @wallytbm.bsky.social speaks musical wisdom. 😊

Thanks to everyone who bought the Assistant / @thephotocopies.bsky.social single today! We're looking forward making a big donation to Cancer Research! Four postcards left if anyone wants one assistant.bandcamp.com/merch/assist...

(1/2) Given that it's #bandcampfriday, I should also plug the latest album, Counterintuition! So, here's a YouTube playlist of videos related to the album, including CD bonus tracks: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis... Links to the album follow... #indiepop #indiemusic

If this remix of @assistant.bandcamp.com doesn't get stuck in your head, nothing will. Get this EP on a #bandcampfriday - like today - and it'll benefit @cancerresearchuk.org more. You can even opt to get a unique painted postcard with it! assistant.bandcamp.com/album/assist... #indiepop #endcancer

New remix EP in which @assistant.bandcamp.com and I remix each other! Every penny raised goes to @cancerresearchuk.org ...so you HAVE to buy it. 😜 And buy it today as it's #bandcampfriday which means more money for the charity. Thank you! #indiepop #newmusic

In case you missed it. Expect the unexpected.

Do not spend your entire Bandcamp allowance at once on Friday. You'll see why. 😉 #bandcampfriday

Four years ago, The Photocopies released a double A-side single, I Don't Want You To Want Me / M B V. M B V never had a video until now, so here's one to mark the anniversary. Thinking of exploring this slightly darker sound more on the next album... www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldlb... #shoegaze #indie

#nowplaying : this Raincoats compilation.

(1/3) The CD edition of Counterintuition should start shipping from @subjangle.bsky.social very shortly, so here's another video from the album. This is the album version of "Looking For The Upside"... youtu.be/UKShaZPOvGA #indiepop #janglepop #baroquepop

Spent a couple of weeks on TikTok once. What a waste of valuable time that was. If you’re a parent, find ways to make your kids think it’s lame now. If that makes you something of a social media influencer 🤮 so be it.

The Photocopies - Counterintuition (plus bonus tracks) @thephotocopies.bsky.social "'Counterintuition' once again highlights the sheer brilliance of this consistently remarkable jangly indie-pop act" #indiepop #janglepop #tweepop #retropop #music getmusic.fm/l/YN8fQL

#ICYMI By the way, this video is now one of five included in the digital download accompanying the Counterintuition CD.

(1/2) The video for "The World Doesn't Understand" is a blockbuster with a cast of thousands! Or is it? www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbVU... #indiepop #janglepop #c86

You can hear a certain wistful, post-apocalyptic singalong about life trapped in an underwater plastic bubble* - and more - if you embark upon Graham Duff’s latest journey into sound. www.totallyradio.com/shows/mixtap... *the new Photocopies single, Land’s End, in case you were wondering

First released one year ago today, here's "To The Setting Sun" - a quietly hopeful song for seemingly hopeless times. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KerR... You can find this on "Greatest Hits, Volume 4".

This seems like a good show to find The Photocopies on. 🙂 www.mixcloud.com/marco-turci/... This is last week's show, and I would guess this week's show is probably broadcasting right now in Italy... #powerpop #indierock

Thanks for playing the new single, @djdumars.bsky.social !

Spent the last hour walking around listening to early Fall, Wire, etc. Glorious stuff. Removing my earbuds, I was met with a car stereo’s generic yee-hah soft country ‘rock’. 🤢 Now I just want to make a scratchy post-punk record. Proper music! 😊

Now that’s how you cover The Shangri-Las. (Well, technically, The Goodies… no, not Bill Oddie and co.) Check out “Sophisticated Boom Boom” on the Bandcamp page below…

Nice to see Cccan't You See in this roundup of the best new cover versions. Thanks, @addtowantlist.bsky.social ! addtowantlist.com/index.php/20... You can get your free download of it here: thephotocopies.bandcamp.com/album/cccant... #indiepop #c86 #coverversion #viciouspink

For anyone tired of being ‘led’ by a greedy man-child. youtu.be/Hh0zeGunz30?...

So now we are here. youtu.be/LasrD6SZkZk?...

Thanks @janglepophub.bsky.social for putting the “Treacherous” EP in this 2025 chart! 😊 thephotocopies.bandcamp.com/album/treach...

(1/3) Here's the single version of Land's End, which just came out on Bandcamp with a previously unreleased AA side (Slipping Through My Fingers). www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ock... #janglepop #indiepop

Here's a playlist containing a song from each of The Photocopies' releases and contributions to 'various artists' compilations in 2025. It has 18 songs, most of them first released in 2025. Thanks for all your support over the last 12 months! 🙂 youtube.com/playlist?lis... #indiepop #janglepop #c86

Because it’s Paul “income tax deduction” Westerberg’s birthday. 😊 youtu.be/ethAzMaxaV0?...

The final physical release of 2025 was In Session Tonight, a collection of recordings for radio shows. I’ve always been fascinated by such compilations, as you can see. 😊 You can find In Session Tonight and the other on-demand LPs here: elasticstage.com/thephotocopies Happy New Year! #indiepop #c86

Released exactly 4 years ago today, here's "Better Than Nothing, I Suppose"... represented by a budget-free lyric video! www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbXu... It was originally a single, but these days you're more likely to find it on "Greatest Hits, Volume 1"...

#ICYMI over the holidays… a free download single on Bandcamp! thephotocopies.bandcamp.com/album/cccant...

Proud to see the "Counterintuition" album by The Photocopies make Ray Collins best of albums of 2025 list !!! countrymilerecords.wordpress.com/best-albums-...

(1/2) Just cleaned up the #Bandcamp discography a little more, setting various EPs/singles to "private" so the page is less overwhelming. Everything that's now invisible remains in your collection if you bought it, but even if you didn't, most 'invisible' tracks are also available on compilations.

Nice!
