After years of whispers, teases, and fan speculation, Bruce Springsteen is finally letting the light hit some of his most mythic unreleased material. Tracks II: The Lost Albums brings together seven previously unheard Springsteen albums; full, conceptually cohesive records that until now lived only in rumor and on hard drives.

The box set spans 83 songs recorded between 1983 and 2012, charting alternate paths and creative detours that flesh out a fuller, more nuanced picture of Springsteen’s journey as both artist and storyteller. “The Lost Albums were full records, some of them even to the point of being mixed and not released,” Springsteen explains. “I’ve played this music to myself and often close friends for years now. I’m glad you’ll get a chance to finally hear them. I hope you enjoy them.”

Each of the seven albums carries its own identity - from the stark LA Garage ’83 demos to the widescreen orchestration of Twilight Hours, the pedal-steel-soaked Americana of Somewhere North Of Nashville, and the synth-fueled Streets Of Philadelphia Sessions. There’s even a long-rumored instrumental record, Faithless, said to have been inspired by a film that never got made. These aren’t toss-aways, they’re lost chapters, rich with intention, texture, and emotional depth.

Tracks II arrives in limited-edition box sets: nine LPs or seven CDs, each with bespoke packaging for every “lost” album. This deluxe edition includes a 100-page cloth-bound hardcover book featuring rare archival photos, liner notes by longtime Springsteen chronicler Erik Flannigan, and a personal introduction from Springsteen himself.

For fans who want a more streamlined entry point, a companion release, Lost and Found: Selections from The Lost Albums, collects 20 standout tracks across two LPs or one CD.

And stay tuned for Tracks III, a completely different collection of unreleased odd and ends spanning Springsteen's entire career.
