Led by singer, guitarist, and songwriter Thalia Zedek, Come generated a singular fusion of blues, post-punk, and indie rock, whose dark, dissonant tone is powerful and evocative. The buzz and slash of Zedek's guitar soars and dives over the precise scatter of the rhythm section, while her vocals are a primal howl whose canny use of dynamics adds depth and shading to the challenging emotional landscape of her lyrics. Come made a striking debut with 1992's Eleven : Eleven, they wowed critics with 1994's Don't Ask Don't Tell (widely regarded as their best album), and 1996's Near Life Experience saw them reworking their sound after replacing their original rhythm section.
