Slipped Disc Records (which went out of business in 2008) was a record store located in Valley Stream, New York, on Rockaway Avenue - owned/operated by Mr. Mike Schutzman - and was one of Long Island's longest running record stores. Specializing in heavy metal, punk, and hardcore CDs, records, DVDs, shirts, posters, pins, books, and other accessories, the store had also featured in-store autograph signing sessions with some of rock's biggest acts over the years. Recently, the store was featured in the documentary Get Thrashed, and an official website was launched for online shopping. Sip This (a chic coffee house) is now located where Slipped Disc Records used to be.

And hungrily began to eat
The boy: beginning at his feet.”
