A Wax Trax! documentary chronicling the rise and fall of the legendary Chicago label has been in the works for over a year, and though a release date hasn't yet been announced, the trailer for the film is going to premiere later this month at two events being held in Chicago.  Both trailer screenings take place at the CIMM fest (Chicago International Movies & Music Festival) happening April 18th through the 21st.  The trailer first premieres at the Regressive Films screening of Sacrificial Youth April 19th at Logan Theater 3, then will be shown at the Wax Trax! Soiree Musicale, hosted by Julia Nash (daughter of the label's co-founder Jim Nash).  The Soiree (which is FREE, by the way) also features appearances by Chris Connelly, Ken Waagner, Reid Hyams, and Sean Joyce, and takes place April 21st at the Logan Theater Lounge.

The full Wax Trax! documentary sounds fantastic - according to a posting on the official site, the film includes interviews with artists who appeared on the label, Wax Trax! store employees, and features home video footage and never before seen images from the Wax Trax! vault. 

For more on other goings on in the Wax Trax! world, read the full news update posted here.
