We're terrible with these updates.

today is saturday, which means i forgot to tell you about the Black Friday sale. But more importantly Friday was our 2nd birthday. So just come in and wish us a Happy Birthday and we'll give you a few bucks off of your purchase.



I wanted to write something encouraging you all to go buy the new Guns N Roses LP "Chinese Democracy", which was finally released last Sunday. But I put it off and than forgot. So than I was thinking I'll just give a review after I bought it and that would work. But I'm an idiot and bought it on vinyl, knowing that my turn-table's needle is broken. It does come with a free download, but my computer is too slow to DL.
So I'm just gonna say ignore whatever the fuck Axl is doing with his hair, or even who is in the band. If it has Axl Rose on vocals and in charge, we're sure to be in for a treat.

The Reverend Speaks!!

Here's a 10 minute clip of when we had the Reverend Paul Bearer do a spoken word engagement at Deep Sleep this past summer. It was easily one of the best events we have ever been a part of and we'd do it again in a second. If you don't know, go listen to Sheer Terror, as well as Paul's newest band Joe Coffee.

Tegan and Sara visit Deep Sleep!!!!

This happened like two weeks ago, but we're slow on updating. Anyway, the lovely Quin Twins stopped by the store when they were in Philly on their current tour. Sara picked up a new Wrath Arcane jacket and a PAM shirt while Tegan was bothered by Mike. Tegan then put Mike and his friend Chris on the list to get into their show that night since it was sold out. True sweethearts. Check out the photo below of Mike and Chris looking like monsters.

Footage from July 4th @ Deep Sleep with NONE MORE BLACK

Thanks to everyone who came out and made this a huge success. Sorry if you had to watch from outside, but I think most people that traveled from places like Virginia, Canada, Boston, New York, etc. got in to see None More Black's set. And let's just all be thankful that CPM waited until the end of the set and excused himself to vomit :)







Make sure you don't miss out on the other events we have coming up this month.

new for the ladies: ZULY

ZULY is a new line based out of Virginia Beach, VA. So far they have produced a solid line of cute t-shirts with great graphics.
here are a few of the ones we now have in stock.




these retail for only $27.

Summer items:

we've been slacking in the updates section, so take notes lots going on: Hellz Bellz summer line is now in stock, we now carry Married to the Mob (and their summer line is in), Pegleg NYC released some awesome tank tops, (that we actually sold through but got a restock in today). This week we also received the summer Flying Coffin line, as well as restocked Sharp Shirter items, that we had blown through. Done to Death is a new and very small line that we've already sold through, but should be restocking soon. Also.... we made our own sunglasses, neon framed 80's style, they came out great.
here are some pics of what has been coming in. Plenty more in our store. Check out the new shop we have online. www.shopdeepsleep.com

NIGHT MARCHERS first tour:

Last night the Deep Sleep crew made it to New York City to check out, the NIGHT MARCHERS. The new San Diego rock n' roll outfit featuring members of Rocket from the Crypt, Hot Snakes and so on.... We have returned more than satisfied and strongly suggest their debut album ("see you in magic") to all.





But (with more urgency) please note that the band will also be performing in our lovely city (Philadelphia) this Friday night! Please make the effort and join us at this fine event. This is most likely the last great rock n' roll band, so pay attention.
