American Tragic
“Wax Idols' intensely personal new album unspools like a clever synthesis of new wave and late-'80s post-punk without sounding like a pastiche of either. At a relatively brief nine tracks, it's a perfectly paced blast of dark pop that deftly reflects frontwoman Hether Fortune’s growing prowess as a songwriter.”
Happy Ending
“Wax Idols complete their transformation from sardonic post-punks to theatrical goth-rock storytellers on an album that dares to take pleasure in confronting death.”
American Tragic
“"Severely Yours" makes a great title for the twisted love songs on Wax Idols' new American Tragic. Where goth-punk goddess Hether Fortune is concerned, "severely" is guaranteed—but don't get too sure about "yours." She's charismatic enough to peel paint off a passing car, and the third album from her Bay Area one-woman band Wax Idols is where she comes into her own musically: late-night death-disc”
