Sleepless Issue #0 Out Now!
FINALLY! After long battles dealing with bullshit of every kind, Sleepless #0 is finally out. The whole point of this zine is to serve as another resource, in print AND online, for people interested in heavy underground music from the Rust Belt.
Sleepless is made by people who play in bands and who have been involved in the creative arts all their lives. This is a place to document, share, and collaborate: send articles, show and record reviews, photos, and comics to us and we'll try and get it into the print zine and also onto the online version of it (coming soon!).
Sleepless is also a quasi-label. For now we will be putting out tape compilations of Rust Belt heavy bands with every issue, starting with Issue #1. You can order them from here or one of our distro partners (coming soon!). They'll also soon be available for download (ditto!).
Sleepless does take subscriptions, which are $20 per year or $6 per issue. You'll get a hard copy of the zine plus a free tape comp. in the mail.
This online space will be more operational in the coming weeks, but right now it's just a placeholder to get the word out. If you have any questions or suggestions, please email sleeplesszine@gmail.com
Here's a list of initial regional distribution points for the printed zine, by city:

ISSUE #0 is printed and shipped!
Well it took long enough but thanks to Markley at Econopress and a few local businesses willing to help this project along, Sleepless #0 is a reality. Sometimes the hardest thing in life is just getting started, but everyone who helped with this landmark issue deserves a lot of credit.
A full list of distro locations and supporters will be out soon...until then, stay tuned.
