LP - Buffalo Tom - Let Me Come Over

1LP

Beggars Arkive present the 2024 reissue of "Let Me Come Over", the third album from Boston rock band Buffalo Tom.

Released in 1992, the power trio recorded a varied group of songs they had been developing at home and on the road, mixing their live sound with some more acoustic based guitar ballads. The album's single "Taillights Fade" became their signature song. Buffalo Tom (Bill Janovitz, Chris Colbourn and Tom Maginnis) formed at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst in 1984 - a breeding ground of post punk guitar bands like Dinosaur Jr. and Pixies.

The three longstanding bandmates recognize the achievement of their longevity as a creative unit. Initially offering a raw, propulsive sound that emphasized Janovitz's imposing guitar squall, Buffalo Tom's early approach gave way to a more melodic, yet no less distinctive, style.
