| Not a bad place at all to get band t-shirts from, although they are very metal/nu-metal orientated. Also sell wrist bands and belts. They do hold some rarities, however, and will order stuff for you. They are maybe a little too enthusiastic in helping you though, which can be off-putting if you genuinely are just browsing and not looking for something in particular (or maybe it's just me being introverted)! If you are after a specific band t-shirt, then definately check this place out. |

| they are way too eager to get you to buy stuff, but trying to force a sale on someone is very off-putting, too much mosher stuff and the "goth" clothing is more hippy and ethnic than anything else |

| Despite my earlier comments on Bats i must say that i agree with craveforblood on Rockstop, in fact i would go further to say that Rockstop do actually lie about their merch to the unsuspecting punter.
Several times i've been in the shop and noticed them claiming(on price tags)that a tee or longsleeved is rare when i know full well that u can buy the same top from numerous other outlets in the UK alone.The 'rare' tag seems to be a licence to print money as justification for charging as much as £25 for a top that normally costs around £18/20.In my personal opinion the place is a rip off and i wouldn't ever recommend it to anyone, and it's not often i say that about a shop! |

| I definately won't be visiting again, last time I went in the first question asked was "How much do you have to spend?" not "Can I help you?" most off putting and catering for only skater kids these days too. |
