[tweetmeme]A treasure trove of early Wax Trax! Records material from Ministry, Revolting Cocks, Pailhead, 1,000 Homo DJs, PTP and Acid Horse — including previously unreleased tracks and demos — will be compiled on a limited-edition 7CD/1LP box set to be released for Record Store Day next month in both the U.S. and the U.K.
Released by Cleopatra Records, the Trax Box! includes a 64-page book and will be encased in a leather-bound, foil-embossed box. The set is being marketed as including 29 previously unreleased tracks, but, as you can see from the Record Store Day-provided tracklist below, some of those labeled as unreleased were issued last fall as part of the expanded reissue of Ministry’s Twelve Inch Singles 1981-1984 compilation.
The collection features material previously released on the Twelve Inch Singles and Side Trax compilations, as well as the out-of-print Black Box — Wax Trax! Records: The First 13 Years box set. But there are previously unreleased demos, as well as long-sought material such as “I’ll Do Anything For You,” the With Sympathy-era track that Al Jourgensen recently shared online.
The box set also includes three expanded Revolting Cocks albums on CD, plus a bonus 12-inch, six-song vinyl live LP recorded by Ministry in Chicago in 1982.
Check out the full tracklist below:
