Stampax is a live album by the English glam rock band Rachel Stamp. It was recorded during the band's 2000 Hymns for Strange Children tour and released on 1 September 2000 on Cruisin' Records.

Background

Stampax was originally intended to be a live recording of just one gig from the Hymns for Strange Children tour, but due to the demand from fans for more rare material, the band recorded other gigs for the album. Another title proposed for the album was Old Enough to Bleed.

Originally issued as an “Internet Only and Mail Order” release that was only available through the official Rachel Stamp website, Stampax wasn’t issued to stores as a single CD until late September 2002. The album was also released as a special bonus CD with the limited edition version of Hymns For Strange Children. It is currently out of print.

Stampax was mastered and edited by Max Bisgrove, who had previously worked with David Bowie & Iggy Pop.
