WAX TRAX! merges with TVT

Apr 11 03:35 UTC 1994

jsut thought i would git some feelings on the recent merger of WAX TRAX! ans
TVT records...one question...who is PLAY IT AGAIN SAM records under now?  
since thay seperated with trax about 3 years ago, i have not seen much stuff
from them (except for a few meat beat cd's)...by the way, did you know that TVT
 is short for Tee-Vee-Tunes.....yes! they orignally started by selling
themesongs forom ultra corny sitcoms in the 60's and 70's....from the Bradys to
Trent Re  reznor...quite a junmp if you ask me

around 6 months ago.....wax was going under, and thatnk god, TV saved their
butt t....most of the stuff (like my life with the thrill kill kult, kmfdm, old
Ministry...old front 242....old klf....etc.) would be gone iif it wern't for th
them, they would be gone.  Wax is keeping industrail alive, and i thank TVT
greT greatly for saving the stuff (i havn't bought it all, yet)  also, were you
 familier with play it again sam?  any idea if they still exist?

Although Wax Trax did have some importance in earlier years, most of the
abovementioned bands are now irrelevant. I wouldn't be sorry to see it go.
Plus they made Foetus shorten his "Sink" compilation, not a very good decision
if you ask me.
