Static-X celebrates debut album’s 25th anniversary with limited-edition box set

The set contains remastered audio with a second disc of rare tracks

Metal icons Static-X are releasing a 25th anniversary edition of their legendary debut Wisconsin Death Trip. Released in 1999, the album introduced the world to the iconic lineup of Wayne Static, Koichi Fukuda, Tony Campos, and Ken Jay. Spawning unforgettable hits as “Push It,” “ I’m With Stupid,” and “Bled For Days,” the album found its way into pop culture through music videos, multiple video games, and inclusion on various movie soundtracks. Years after its release, the album still finds new audiences.

The anniversary edition – Wisconsin Death Trip (25th Anniversary Corrosive Edition) – is the ultimate death trip, containing two handmade, orange and black eclipse vinyl with remastered versions of the original album audio, presented in a comprehensive box set, filled with bonus tracks and never-before-seen artwork available worldwide on December 12th.

The band reunited with the original producer Ulrich Wild as well as original photographer Exum to deliver a whole new experience for the album. The album has been remastered by Wild, and a second disc of demos, alternate versions, and rare tracks is included, making the album’s runtime over an hour and eleven minutes.

Exum unearthed hundreds of never-before-seen photos from the shoot, and the band has used them to completely redesign the packaging.

Limited edition deluxe versions include signed prints, laser-engraved ID tag, ID bracelet with QR code linking to the full 8 mm BTS video footage of the Wisconsin Death Trip photo shoot, pill bottle, stickers and more, and is only available via the band’s website.

Recently, Warner Records has reissued the music video for “Push It” in high definition. The unforgettable music video helped launch the band to the masses, thanks to the early support of MTV. The video was directed by Mick Olszewski and tapped into the clay animation style that was popular when released in 1999. Now available in HD for the first time, fans can experience the video in a whole new way and add to the 34 million views it has received since it was published in 2009.

Static-X’s original Wisconsin Death Trip lineup of Tony Campos, Koichi Fukuda, & Ken Jay, along with current vocalist/guitarist Xer0, will continue to bring their ultra-entertaining Evil Disco extravaganza on the road throughout 2025. Along with festival appearances at Louder Than Life and Aftershock, the band will be supporting Mudvayne on their tour this September and October. Static-X will also be playing six headline shows throughout that run.
