'Let me come over' is certainly the one to start with and their later albums are outstanding too. But i'm a fan of their 'raw work' and that's what i'm finding back on their first 2 albums. But that's just a humble Belgian opinion.

They were totally on fire. played about 5 new tunes and they sounded great. Janovitz quipped that they will proably give the new album away for free because that's the thing to do nowadays.

But all their albums are great, really: it's a bit like Teenage Fanclub: they put out a new album, at first you think: "O well, that sounds ok, a bit familiar, nothing special", but after repeated listening you realize that it's full of brilliant songs. Again. As is every album they've made. I saw Buffalo Tom live a couple of times: I last saw them about two years ago, after 'Three Easy Pieces' was released and, as before, they were very good: over the years, they have written so many good songs that at a show, it's one highlight after the other.
