Wax Trax! documentary trailer premieres online

UPDATE: According to Wax Trax! Chicago, Regressive Films decided to pull the trailer down. Apparently they wanted to sort out a few matters, so the trailer has been temporarily removed. A release date for the film has not been announced.

Regressive Films posted the trailer for the highly anticipated upcoming Wax Trax! film.  Wax Trax! The Documentary chronicles the glory days and the eventual bankruptcy of the legendary record label and record store.  The film was directed by Julia Nash, the daughter of Wax Trax! co-founder Jim Nash (Julia also runs the Wax Trax! Chicago website and Twitter).  Check out the trailer below via Side Line.



The above trailer was unveiled back in April at the Chicago International Music & Movies Festival, and after the premiere Julia Nash hosted a lively panel discussion that included Chris Connelly and others associated with the label and store.  The panel archive is available to view here.
