The impact Wax Trax had on industrial music cannot be overstated, and this was the epicenter.

This label means very much to me, as does the whole culture that Wax Trax! Records and the industrial/punk/goth community represents. Much love from Seattle to Chicago and the world at large!

Please save this storefront. A cultural icon and we’re losing too many old beautiful buildings.

As a Historian and a love for industrial, this needs to be landmarked ASAP.
