After their 1993 release Betti-Cola ruled the campus airwaves for three consecutive months, cub came out with this quirky gem: Come Out Come Out. The purveyors of cuddlecore lit the fire with Betti-Cola, but this one burned the house down and solidified cub and Mint Records in indie record land.
Longtime fans of cub may still have their own copy of the charming triple 7” vinyl that Come Out Come Out was originally released on in 1995, likely picked up during the band’s extensive touring where they shared stages with artists such as They Might Be Giants, Sebadoh, Elliott Smith, Yo La Tengo, Sloan, The Muffs, Magnetic Fields, DOA, Rancid, NOFX, Seam, The Coctails, Sun Ra Arkestra, De La Soul, The Evaporators and Zumpano.
In 2007, Come Out Come Out was reissued with bonus tracks, and now Mint Records is finally releasing the album on a 12” vinyl, remastered with the track list and the original artwork by Fiona Smyth reimagined.
Come Out Come Out - 30th Anniversary Edition is out on January 15, 2026 on Mint. Exactly 31 years to the day of the original release!
Pre-order it on Bandcamp or the Mint Webstore.
