Wax Jaw has built their style on a desire to deliver electrifying live shows that leave no audience member indifferent. Emerging from Philadelphia’s vibrant music scene, the band fuses energetic, rhythm-driven punk tracks with emotionally charged lyrics, urging fans toward deep introspection while letting loose on the dance floor.

This five-piece band has captured the raw emotion and energy of their live performances in their debut album, It Takes Guts!, set for release on October 10, 2025, via Born Loser Records.

It Takes Guts! blends joy and pain. The album explores themes of addiction, sexual liberation, and self-worth, offering an authentic reflection of the lived experience of lead singer Shane Morgan, a transmasculine person. The album’s instrumentation mirrors its lyrical duality, combining sharp punk riffs with infectious new wave rhythms. It’s music that invites both movement and introspection, with every track crafted to grab you by the gut and make you feel alive.
