HENRY'S ALMOST LINER NOTES:

We wrapped the WEIGHT world tour in Brazil in November 1994. By 1995, we were back at Context Rehearsal hall working on new material.

We hit it five days a week. Songs got written and put on tape. They got tossed out, brought back in again, re-arranged, shelved again, discussed, etc. It went on and on.

Many months later, we had a chunk of songs and we started looking for producers. We ended up with Steve Thompson and we went to Bearsville in upstate New York in 1996 and put down a lot of songs. Tracking was done pretty quickly. We moved down to NYC and into Sorcerer Studios in Manhattan and did vocals and the mix. We ended up with a lot of songs. We picked some out for the Come In And Burn album and that was it.

I say that was it, because I mean that was it. I felt that there was no more music that was going to come out of the five of us. It felt like we had done what we could do creatively and it was all cool but it was over.

Come In And Burn came out in early 1997 and we hit the road soon after. The record company wanted a song like Liar and there was nothing like that on Come In And Burn. I noticed that DroneWorks wasn't interested in us or the record and we were just getting passed through the system. Makes me wonder why they were ever interested in us. Didn't matter, we were on tour and hitting it nightly. We toured until November and finished in Osaka, Japan.

Some years later, Come In And Burn went out of print when DreadWorks decided they weren't a very good record label. I got the title back and decided to make it as interesting a release as I could.

So here's what I did: included all the b-sides and outtakes and rearranged the song orderto accomodate all the extra tracks. You will notice Stray and Disappearing Act have the same music but different vocals/lyrics. This is something I had always wanted to do. It's two different aspects of a relationship written in the same meter. I don't know if the concept holds water but it was an idea I had been wanting to do since 1992. Perhaps when you hear all the music, it will give you a clearer idea of where the band was at. I think there's some good music here. These guys were serious players! Critic types hated the record and beat us up pretty good, especially me. Such puny fists.

It was a great time and a great line-up of people. 1993-1997. Chris, Theo, Sim and Melvin are some of the finest people I've ever met.

I have been wanting to put this CD set out for some time. I hope you dig it.

Rollins, with this release, completes the remastering/rereleasing of Rollins Band material from before the earlier members of the band were switched out for the guys from Mother Superior. As was the case with AUDIO AIRSTRIKE CONSULTANTS, THE END OF SILENCE remastered, and WEIGHTING, you get some of the material from the original disc, and the added bonus of tracks that were available only on CD singles, EPs, soundtrack discs, or not at all.

This re-release of COME IN AND BURN will not disappoint the listener who wants to get all the material from the period collected in a two disc set . DISAPPEARING ACT and ALSO RAN were previously only available on the Japanese release of COME IN AND BURN. THRESHOLD, STRAY and the two remixes of THE END OF SOMETHING were previously available two at a time on the STARVE and THE END OF SOMETHING singles. The Grooverider Remix remains a bit of a mystery: While the track on this new release is identical to that found on the white THE END OF SOMETHING single, it is unclear whether or not this track is actually a remix of this song done by Grooverider, an artist who specializes in drum-and-bass remixes. To my ear, this track never sounded 'drum-and-bassy' enough, or different enough from the original version of the track (if anything, the We Change Fear version is more of a departure from the original, with drum-and-bass type sounds). I've received a couple of emails over the years from fans in the UK (thanks Basil and Ornette) who have let me know that Grooverider certainly did make a remix of this track, and did play it on his radio show a couple of times in London, but that the track that ended up on the Rollins Band discs is definitely not it. Does someone out there have a recording of the actual Grooverider remix of THE END OF SOMETHING? Are the We Change Fear and Grooverider versions of the track simply mislabelled?

The previously unreleased tracks include an alternate version of DURING A CITY which is quite different; the meter is slowed down a lot, Sim is playing the drums with brushes, Chris and Melvin injecting the occasional sound, and Rollins' delivery almost has a beat poetry quality to it. Both UNKNOWN HERO and DESTROYING THE WORLD got played at live gigs on the COME IN AND BURN tour. UNKNOWN HERO is a classic Rollins Band outtake track, like FALL GUY on WEIGHTING ... there's nothing wrong with the song, it's just not quite of the same calibre of the others. DESTROYING THE WORLD is in the style of one of my favorite sorts of Rollins Band songs, the long jam song where there is room for some improvisation. This track was very memorable in concert, which reminds me: One ingredient we are missing here is some live material from the COME IN AND BURN tour.
