Camden County Band Gets ‘Tangled In The Vines’

Written By Mike Greenblatt
Sleep In Band

From the mild streets of Hadden Heights in Camden County, the boyz of alt-emo band Sleep In sing of friendship, self-loathing, daydreaming, personal struggle and “the strange rituals of party culture” on their fourth album, Tangled In The Vines. Friends of theirs in bands Bike Routes and Sweet Pill make appearances on the album and there’s even a song “about the space in-between the half-hour before you fall asleep.” They’ll be trying out this new material October 9 at Ruba Club in Philly with South Jersey band Dry Jacket and Oct. 24 at The Fest in Gainesville Florida with New York City post-hardcore band Texas Is The Reason.
