Wax Trax and the industrial scene in general was the main reason I moved to Chicago! And when it all moved away, so did I.

Wax Trax has left a lasting impression on my life. It should be honored as leaving a lasting impression on Chicago.

Mid to late 1980’s- nothing better than a trip to the city, just to go to Wax Trax! When Doc Marten’s weren’t sold anywhere else.

Wax Trax! Records is an important cultural landmark. Without them much of what we listen to today would not exist.
