"Wax" was a Los Angeles, California based punk rock band that emerged during the pop punk resurgence of the early 1990s, and includes Joe Sib, Tom "Soda" Gardocki, Dave Georgeff, and Loomis Fall. The band is best known for their MTV buzz clip video "California," directed by Spike Jonze. Wax formed in 1991 in Los Angeles, California. They released their first album, What Else Can We Do on Caroline Records in 1992, with a surf-inflected punk rock style, comparable to the Ramones and Pixies. The band seperated in 1995, but in July 2009 Wax reunited, announcing the release of Hangin' On, a 7" vinyl record featuring four unreleased songs that were originally intended to appear on 13 Unlucky Numbers.
