"to see bt live around the time of this recording was to experience an event. The venues were lifted, dropped, rattled. The kids filed out, grinning, shaken and ringing. IF you were there too, then you know...
This album is about as good as fuzzbox power pop gets. If you were around listening to pop music in the early 90's, and missed them, ya better keep your mouth shut about it, cause your canon is incomplete. Yes, there were a few really good bands then. BT was one of them.
I blew out a set of headphones with this."

An album that speaks to your moods

"Yes its true, this is one of the greatest albums of the nineties, and it has stood the test of time, I've had in nearly constant rotation for 11, yes 11 years and it still is fresh and speaks to any mood I'm in. When I want to jump up and feel an adrenaline rush I throw on Daryl or Staples, when I want to smile about the wonders of the world I can listen to Porchlight and frozen lake, and when I feel down the voices, the tone, and the composition lift me, this is a fantastic album you should own, trust me."

Definitive opus from the best 3-piece band ever!

"Let Me Come Over is Buffalo Tom's best work. The songs are variously sweet, tragic, and melodic, but also heartbreakingly relatable tales of life, love, and loss. Its blend of jangling guitars, distortion, and lyrics (laced with the morose-hope that is so uniquely Buffalo Tom) stood as a powerful counterpoint to the "grunge" sound coming from Seattle and the Pacific Northwest. Buffalo Tom represent the culmination of growth and perspective that brought us to the era of post-punk and emo.A must-have for any serious collector of influential music, or fan of indi-rock, it stands the test of time as the best album by a trio ever. Buffalo Tom is the band that gave me permission to musically grow up, and for that I thank them."
