Come is an influential American alternative rock band formed in 1990. The band was founded by singer and guitarist Thalia Zedek, who had previously been a member of the bands Uzi and Live Skull. Come's music is characterized by its raw and intense sound, combining elements of blues, punk, and noise rock.
Over the years, Come has released several critically acclaimed albums, including their debut album "Eleven: Eleven" in 1992 and their follow-up "Don't Ask Don't Tell" in 1994. Their music has been praised for its emotional depth and powerful performances.
In addition to Thalia Zedek, Come consists of Chris Brokaw on guitar, Sean O'Brien on bass, and Arthur Johnson on drums. Together, they create a dynamic sound that captivates audiences with its energy and intensity.

Vinyl variants, bonus material and signed editions exclusively available from Rough Trade.

Fire Records is an independent record label headquartered in London, England, UK. Founded in the mid 80s, Fire Records has been a prominent force in the music industry for decades. They have released early records from Pulp, Teenage Fanclub, Spacemen 3, Blue Aeroplanes, and many other influential artists. In the early 90s, the label was home to notable acts such as Neutral Milk Hotel, The Lemonheads, Built to Spill, and Urge Overkill.With a rich history of discovering talent and nurturing their careers, Fire Records remains dedicated to supporting groundbreaking musicians across various genres. Their diverse roster showcases both established names and emerging talents who push boundaries and challenge conventions.

Peel Sessions is an essential nine-track set catching Boston’s mighty Come at the peak of their powers. The collection includes two sessions recorded for John Peel in both 1992 and 1993, plus a previously unreleased live track ‘Clockface’ from 1991, unwrapping the blueprint of their sonic idealism. Raw, loud and live, exactly where the band’s dissonant blues noise rock originates.

1992’s four track session is direct from their debut; but more mangled, strangled and abrasive. The follow-up set from a year later includes live favourite ‘Mercury Falls’ and ‘City Of Fun’ neither of which surfaced as studio recordings.

The sessions feature the masterful guitar interplay of two central pivots of the post-post-punk and alternative noisnik underground, Chris Brokaw (Codeine, Pullman, Thurston Moore, Ryley Walker, Lemonheads) and Thalia Zedek (Uzi, Live Skull, solo). The session’s line-up is completed by the addition of Sean O'Brian and Arthur Johnson’s visceral bass and percussion, documenting an essential era for the band.

Peel Sessions follows their recently released Don’t Ask Don’t Tell reissue, part of Fire Records forthcoming reissue series for the seminal group.
