Waxy Wednesdays with Wax Romantics // Episode 11 // Albums We Don't Like (w/ Robert Johnson) In this episode, the four wax boys are joined by musician, photographer, and great friend Robert Johnson. The wax boys have known Robert for a long time - in fact, Julian is in a band with him. Their band is called Foreign Words and their debut 2020 album, 'Wasting Time,' is absolutely incredible. Robert is also the official Wax Romantics photographer and you can check out some of his amazing work on Instagram under the handle @slyfoxxphoto. In this episode, they talk about Robert's photography, the process of recording 'Wasting Time,' and review albums; but the theme for this week's album review is to try to give fair and favorable reviews of albums that they hate. This includes albums by Tool, A Perfect Circle, Kanye West, and Ed Sheeran.  This episode was recorded on Tuesday, April 12 and released on Wednesday, April 20.  Visit waxromantics.com for all things Wax Romantics and get in touch with the wax boys at [email protected].
