Bandet består af Stephen Dewaele (født 4. juli 1970), David Dewaele (født 24. maj 1975), Stefaan Van Leuven, Inga Flipts og Piet Dierickx. Gruppen spillede i starten en rockorienteret form for post-grunge, inspireret af bl.a. Soundgarden, The Black Crowes og Pearl Jam, som det hørtes på debutalbummet Leave The Story Untold fra 1996. I 1998 udsendtes Much Against Everyone's Advice, der var indspillet i Los Angeles med produceren David Sardy, der tidligere havde arbejdet med Red Hot Chili Peppers og Helmet. Albummet var gruppens amerikanske debut, og gruppen havde nu udskiftet den mere rockede lyd med en musikalsk blandingsgenre, der legesyt kombinerede forskellige stilarter som indie, electronica, dance, heavy og traditionel rock/pop. Albummet fik pæne anmeldelser og blev sammenlignet med Beck, Prince og Primal Scream.

I 2000 spillede Soulwax på en række store europæiske festivaler, og i 2002 udkom 2 Many DJ's, der var et rendyrket remixalbum, hvor klassikere som The Stooges' No Fun og Salt-N-Pepa's Push It blev mixet hæmningsløst med hinanden . Albummet blev en stor succes i Belgien og Holland. Trods generel god omtale slog Soulwax aldrig for alvor igennem i udlandet. Derimod var gruppen et stort navn i Belgien og Holland, hvor brødrene Dewale også var nogle meget efterspurgte dj's.
