we are very excited to be on WERS' "The Left End" radio show this coming Sunday (the 30th) at 1AM EASTERN STANDARD TIME! 

so day sleeper is playing at tt the bear's on june 24th and we need some opening bands. if there are any bands with a decent 18+ draw active in the area let me know if you want to play the show with us. and, you know, come to it and stuff.

hello everybody.

the amazingly supportive folks over at our record label, cooling pie records, have just released an tasty new compilation titled "the crust never sleeps, volume 1." the compilation features exclusive new tracks by tons of our extremely talented labelmates as well as a BRAND NEW DEMO of a new day sleeper song that will be featured on a new album. the best part? the whole damn thing is free.

stream the whole thing here:



you can download the whole thing for free and please spread it around! although day sleeper will be sadly absent, there is a release party going down on bowery tomorrow night (may 8th). for more information on that sick party check out redpartynyc.com.

thanks everyone for your support! downloads of drop your sword just passed 450, and now day sleeper has been featured on SIX additional chinese websites. fan the flames and spread the word - we'll be returning to activity very soon.

vigilant always,
~cas
