Wax Trax is alive. Well, at least they're on life support. TVT
bought them out, rereleased a lot of the back catalog with TVT logos
and catalog #s hastily grafted onto the old artwork, and gave them
some $ with which to seek out new bands. The WaxTrax/TVT entity has
rereleased all of the Warp AI series (with the exception of Speedy J),
continues to maintain the one band that stuck with them (KMFDM) and is
also releasing some new stuff. My friend just got a promo for an
actual WaxTrax new signing called PSYKOSONIK and I can cheerfully
report that it sucks huge rocks.
So now you know.
