A Red Flag Academy production

Red Flag Rock

Every red flag gets a song. Every song gets a music video. Each track takes one manipulation tactic and turns it into something you cannot get out of your head. Learn the term. Spot the pattern. Sing along.

Track 01 · It Was You the Whole Time (DARVO) · Vertical · Open on YouTube

Out now · The first single

It Was You the Whole Time

Deny. Attack. Reverse Victim and Offender.

DARVO is the oldest trick in the book, and now it has a theme song. Meet Kip, the guy who somehow makes everything your fault, and then wants an apology for it.

About two minutes. Fully animated. Painfully familiar.

DARVO  ●  Love Bombing  ●  Ghosting  ●  Gaslighting  ●  Catfishing  ●  Situationship  ●  and many more

The album

One song for every red flag

A full cast of characters, a different sound on every track, and zero lectures. Fourteen are written so far, and the list keeps growing.

Pretty, for You
Negging. A compliment with a hook in it.

One Life Raft
Codependency. A duet where neither otter gets a verse of their own.

15+
Plus many more. Every red flag in the glossary is fair game, and the glossary is long.
1 flag = 1 song

Vibes lie. Patterns don't. Most people only learn the names for manipulation tactics after they have lived through them. Red Flag Rock puts the vocabulary where it sticks: in a chorus.
