A new 2-CD set of Translator outtakes, demos and live tracks is now available from Almacantar Records. These selections are hand-picked by the band from their personal archives.

(link deleted as it now seems to be taken over by something that has nothing to do with Translator)

it would have been nice if these were spread across the re-issues of the 4 studio albums last year, but $15 for a 2 disc set sounds like a fair price in this day and age

Where is the fuck in "Unalone"???????

I wasn't expecting much from this, having been underwhelmed by the single-disc rarities comp they sold at recent reunion shows. This 2-disc set is a real improvement, though. Some of the live tracks are very impressive, and there are a few great lost songs. Price is right, too.
