Great band, and loved to play along to this record (taped from the library's copy, as i was taking part in killing the record industry at that time). Their drummer would later play drums for Paul Westerberg, circa ... right around the time that Tommy Keene started playing guitar for him. I saw them open up for the Psychedelic Furs BITD.

I think there is something good in all four Translator albums (which finally came out on CD last year or so). And the second Wire Train is pretty good, although I will agree that it is too slick, and a little too much like U2 at times. Once Kurt Herr left the band they lost me completely.

Those were as good as anything on Heartbeats + Triggers. At least give another listen to the songs “Un-Alone” and “No Time Like Now”. Those were as good as anything on Heartbeats + Triggers.

I do remember that it was better than the third and fourth ones, but I was so in love with HEARTBEATS AND TRIGGERS that I remember considering it a real disappointment at the time.

The third one was a real stinker, though. Another thumbs up to that second Translator lp. The third one was a real stinker, though.

I liked both Translator & Wire Trains' second lp's a ton...yeah they were a bit slicker, but the songs were still there to me....i thought that NOTHING Wire Train did after the second album was that great, especially the stuff for MCA.......and I am in a HUGE minority that likes the last Red Rockers lp "Schizophrenic Circus" which has some pretty good spots in it....no "Condition red", but that's ok....just my two cents!
