Wax Trax Records

Denver


For more than 38 years, Wax Trax Records has been trading at this Denver location, stocking a huge quantity of CDs, DVDs, vinyl and music paraphernalia. Indie, alternative, punk, goth, folk, rock, hip-hop, jazz, reggae – anything that’s a bit edgy you’ll either find in store or it’ll be ordered for you.

There are two adjacent shopfronts – one selling CDs and DVDs, the other exclusively vinyl.
