My brother first brought me to the store back in the early 2000s and started going there as a teen but I haven't been there in years since I moved states but since I was in Cali decided to give it a visit felt so uncomfortable and unwelcome staff is trying to hard to fit the look nastiest attitudes I chose an item out told them ima keep looking for more things and if I needed help I'd let them know unfortunately they kept following me around and every time I'd ask about an item they'd have a smart ass comment the owner was always nice and welcoming sucks he has a horrible staff now that from the looks on reviews are chasing away customers. read more

Made a pretty far drive to check out some items I saw online I wanted to purchase. Was trying to find them around the store as one whose shopping does! then the register lady started giving me the nastiest stank face ever lmao and she kept doing it the whole time I was there it was honestly crazy, you should not be trying to make ppl feel that unwelcome in your store if you want people to actually buy stuff really not a cute look like literally... So sad to see people that miserable with their lives, honestly I will keep you in my prayers honey and I hope you heal from whatever you're going thru!!! always walked a few stores over to a pretty similar store and spent my money there! read more

Love the place, have been coming here for a couple years, love the vibe and asthetic. They had many selections of pendants, rings, and shirts which is what I was hunting for. Both clerks were helpful and let us shop around freely. Good value for LA and its location paid less than 20 (plus tip) . read more

Super sick store' Came in looking for some new shirts and some tripp pants. I wanted to go to a place that would have a variety plus have the option to try on the pants since it would be my very first pair. The staff was super kind and helpful in helping me decide which pair of pants i'd get. Found some sick white and black tripp pants and left with a liquid blue shirt. Super sick options from trad goth styles to more alt styles. Plus a huge selection of bands tees. I enjoyed being able to look through a printed sheet to see which bands they had tees for; made it super efficient. They also have pins, chains, belts, bracelets, rings and all the accessories you can imagine. Super cool store i'd recommend checking out! read more

A cool shop with a variety of items, from boots, to band shirts and accessories. The staff here are very friendly.

I went the other day didn't feel welcomed and the lady with microbangs kept mugging me and was making up prices from her head and seemed bothered that I was still looking I couldn't even look around without them following its so uncomfortable. Can't stand la posers read more

Tiffany is a such a great listener and made me feel heard when I explained the bad costumer the girls that worked the day before put me through. They went back and forth arguing in front of me about a piece I wanted to try but didn't know how to adjust and who had to do it, and when the second girl came over to "help" she immediately said no this won't fit you try a size smaller. As if I don't know my own size nonetheless I trusted her judgement and went home only to find out she was wrong! I went back the next day and drove 45 minutes to get it exchanged . I hope Tiffany gets recognition she deserves and that her unprofessional colleagues follow after her example I'll gladly come back when she's on duty, if I see those two other girls I'll skip on buying that day, their attitudes scream jealousy and it shows. read more

I was very excited to come here and find some shirts that I'll never find in my own city (I live in Canada) but I've never ever felt so unwelcomed in a store before. The girl with the micro bangs kept following me around and giving me attitude when I asked for help, and she kept standing so close to me whenever I was reading the book of options... and acted like I shouldn't be shopping here. Me and my sister were very upset to walk out the store with nothing. read more

Been coming here for years!! Dope spot. Lots of band tees patches and leather stuff too. Too value for sure!

This place is a gem. Hollywood sucks if you live in LA, but when I do go to the west side, it's always a stop on my way around town. Great selection of tees and jewelry. I really like the guy who's there when I go, think his name is Tony. I bought a ball chain necklace and had previously purchased a wallet chain, and he helped me adjust the lengths. Based on that interaction of customer service, I will continue to give them my $. read more

5 times I've gone here over the course of 16 years and 5 times I was treated like crap. I'm not looking for a silver platter, but rolling ones eyes saying "Thanks for wasting my time" because I didn't buy anything is pathetic- even if your gimmick is 'angry punk'. Also, their stock is WAY overpriced. I've gone back to them hoping they'd simply give me the neutral amount of decency, but no. They go out of their way to be dicks every time. If you like an angsty teenager level of try-hard attitude, overpriced merchandise, and mediocre quality items- you'll love this place. read more

I always buy shoes whenever I come here. They have a wide selection of stuff to look at. Store is a little tight, but everytime I've come there hasn't been too many people so it's not too bad. read more

I went here on August 19th 2023. First off the one girl behind the counter acted like I was bothering her asking for a price of an item. The older male owner stated $34 for a belt but then when ready to check out charged my friend $40 for the belt. I bought 1 dress which was supposed to be #29.99 plus 30% off, I was billed $76 for 1 dress. I have to dispute with my bank, this owner is shady and does not charge you the proper price for items. read more

THE BEST METAL Tshirt shop in the world !! Been goin here for 12yrs, still go once or twice on my visits to LA. Very nice and patient staff who know their Heavy Metal. Aaaand after reading that ignorant negative comment ( by Boston T party) , Im definitely buying me that BRUJERIA Tshirt with the decapitated head of Trump \m/ \m/ read more

The best in getting merch from your favorite metal bands, punk rock or hard-core...I drive all the way from San Diego to this store and it never disappoints. I would highly recommend this place to get all your metal T-shirt needs!!? read more

Best metal/rock/horror shirt selection outside of the internet! Staff is always nice, KNOWLEDGABLE, And friendly.

This store has a selection of goods that are of varrying qualities. The wristbands and woven patches I purchased are amazingly made, and completely worth the cost. Unfortunately the two other items I bought a tie, and a necklace. Have some disappointing flaws that are quite upsetting. The tie is made out quality fabric, but it has poor stiching. The keeper loop that holds the back of the tie, came off instantaneously when I unpackaged it. The necklace on the other hand has a strong chain, but the pendant snapped in half the same day I got it. It is upsetting; because I expected the necklace to be of a high caliber. Since it cost me roughly 17 dollars. These are easy fixes; but I expected better from these items. Needless to say this store is not terrible, but a few of their products may be hit or miss. NOTE: I will be including photos of my items so you can see what I am describing in my review. read more

This is the kinda place I have to make a spending limit for myself before I walk in. I always say "no more than $20" but almost always spend way more. Great selection of tees & patches. Always make a special trip to Hollywood for this place. read more

The staff here is great. They remember me and always chat and laugh with me while I shop. The quality of the merch is absolutely top notch, and on the microscopic chance that it's not, they actually fix the merch right in from you your eyes. Also the selection is unmatched. My favorite store ever! read more

What a great experience. My teenaged son and I wandered in here and had the best time. The shop owner and his staff were extremely friendly and helpful. My son had to spend his own money on a new leather jacket and they took lots of time with him finding the perfect style and fit. I ended up buying him another shirt he can wear to school in the fall, just because the experience was great and they worked with us on pricing. If you are looking for rock gear, it's a great place to go! read more

Rude, rude, rude. I was in with my young son on Thursday, and was hustled out of the place. if you like indifferent service, a filthy store and high prices then this is the store for you. For the rest of us, go to shop somewhere else ..better selection and prices.BAD PEOPLE SCUMBAGS . Save yourself the money and time DO NOT SHOP THERE . read more

As a metal music fan, I have come to find out that this place is my safe haven away from my work. If you have a job that confines you to a shitty uniform every day just like I do, Rock Town is your safe haven. I bought so many things from here to deck out my clothing and body. Belts, patches, stickers, pins, shirts, vests. You name it! read more

This place is awesome, and I wish Utah had something similar! The awesome front display drew me in, and I don't regret a thing. I was greeted by rows and rows of black t shirts with awesome bands on them, which really is my dream. They had tons of other items, including Lucky 13 jackets, body jewelry, and pipes. All of the above were super cool. The lady behind the counter was super nice and helpful, and pulled out all of her Marilyn Manson merchandise, after hearing about my love of him. Needless to say, she made the sale. I walked out with three new Manson shirts to add to my ever growing collection, and my wallet didn't take a huge hit either! Now that I am back in Utah, I really wish I would have picked up one of those Lucky 13 jackets. They were pretty expensive, but I think it would have been worth it. Maybe next time I'm in Cali. read more

I was about to buy a cool belt when i noticed a rock tee that had the decapitated head of our President. I asked for clarification if that was the President's head. The guy said yes. So i left without my belt. It's not like they had shirts with decapitated heads of other presidents. Laterz, dude, you lose my business. read more

This is the place to be when it comes to being a metalhead, black metal, thrasher, anything but EMO (eff them). You got a guy to help you and altering hot chicks as well. Don't be shy to chat with them, it's whats best to improve the customer service ;) read more

Incredible selection of metal shirts. They have a wide range of bands, as well as a wide range of old designs to new designs. They have a lot of shirts on the wall, but there are even more on the shelves if you look carefully. I just wish they offered an online store, because I would spend mass amounts of money there, since I don't live in L.A. read more

I agree, Rocktown is a pretty BAD A** store!!! They seem to have allot of cool SH*T. I've been going there for years! (like at least 5). I've spent $1000s on black T-shirts there. The owners there are very nice!!! The guy that runs the place is ultra cool!! His brother runs the shop next store - so if you can't find what you need at Rocktown, go next store. Rocktown also has a bunch of photos everywhere of tons of famous rockers in the store. A very Cool store for sure!!!! Their prices are definitely better than rockabilia.com. Rocktown's shirts seem to shrink after awhile (I'm not sure if the shirts are fully legit or licensed). But for $20 bucks you cant go wrong. Only downside... they stock nothing larger than XL. If you're looking for 2XL or larger, order on-line from rockabilia.com. read more

Huge selection of metal shirts for bands you wouldn't commonly find merch for. If by chance they don't have what you want, the owner will order it for you. Very nice guy. The best part (for me) is that they carry metal shirts for ladies. I guess female black metal fans are too scarce for anyone to bother making shirts for them, so finding metal shirts that aren't giant and are fitted properly is damn near impossible for us chicks, but Rock Town has them. The selection of girl shirts is very small compared to the regular selection, but still nice, and I don't know where else I ever would have found girly-sized Emperor or Leviathan shirts. read more

This place truly rocks! The ladies that work here are helpful and friendly! Prices are quite reasonable. I checked prices online and they were comparable. This is the only place on Hollywood Blvd to by rock n'roll or motorcycle wear. read more

Best place to find band t shirts aside from the net, a wide variety of metal and rock shirts, always find something when I make it down there. read more

Friendly staff, reasonable prices, I always feel welcomed, and the girls are always really helpful.

This place has anything you can imagine. Necklaces, leather jackets, belts, hats, patches (Back and small ones) of all types of metal bands. This isn't your Hot Topic type trendy store, if you're a true fan of metal this is the place to be! Venom, Immortal, Burzum, Mayhem, CC, etc.. All found on hats, patches, sweaters, shirts and more. If a necklace needs a different chain or an adjustment for you.. they'll do it, and their variety is vast! This is absolutely the place to go for metal merch! \m/ read more

A really great store if you're searching for underground metal bands. They have many great shirts there. Anything from Iron Maiden to EyeHateGod. Prices are very good, considering that you can't find these shirts most any other place. I reccomend you check it out if you are into metal. They also have cool patches, wristbands, stickers, posters, etc. My favorite store for metal! read more
