SLEEPCHAMBER is back to celebrate their 40th anniversary

Sleep Chamber is an American Industrial band formed in early 80's & fronted by John Zewizz.

The band is known for using S&M, Bondage and Magick imagery on their art work, during their performances, and within their lyrics.

From 1982 to 1999 Sleep Chamber put out a considerable volume of music (releasing over 70 recordings) .

After a extended absence, Sleep Chamber returned in 2008 with a new line up, a slew of new releases, and a new name, SLEEPCHAMBER.

Since the beginning John Zewizz has stated that the constant line up change is because Sleep Chamber is not a "band", but rather a "concept".

Live Sleep Chamber performances were quickly labeled as resembling a "Black Mass", with smoke (containing a special blend of incense) billowing out of machines, and the band donning black bondage masks while performing on stage.

Their concerts scared some local club owners prompting them to ban Sleep Chamber from playing.

Local reviewers often accused the band of being satanic.

During the 1990s John incorporated bondage/fetish dancers called the Barbitchuettes in to Sleep Chamber live performances.

With this addition Sleep Chamber's popularity exploded.

During live shows the Barbitchuette dancers would perform S&M acts on the stage as well as caressing and dancing with other Barbitchuette dancers.

2022 wil be the year of SLEEPCHAMBER or will be not !

Hail to the Dark esoteric music leaders !
