Buffalo Tom is the debut album by the American alternative rock band Buffalo Tom, released in 1988 and featuring production from J Mascis. [2] [3] [4]
AllMusic wrote that "some bands offer up everything they have on their first album, and some bands just get started; Buffalo Tom indicates that this band was clearly in the latter category, but if they had a way to go in the originality sweepstakes, there was no arguing they had plenty of talent and potential." [5]

Produced by J Mascis and Buffalo Tom.
Mixed by Sean Slade, engineered by Tim O'Heir.
