About the Band
With one foot in the grave and one eye on the stars, the Spider Translator is waiting and listening, suspicious and watchful, exploring new techniques for translating music From Beyond.
Currently located in Des Moines, Iowa, the Spider Translator was formed in 1999 by L Erickson as a variant of the Word Eating Spider Translator, first introduced to him in 1998 by Roger JM Hughes.

"There are forces here that could kill a herd of elephants in a second as easily as you or I could squash a fly. Our only chance is to keep perfectly still. Our insignificance perhaps may save us."
Algernon Blackwood
(Spider Translator 1906-Present)
