release of Come On Pilgrim entered the UK indie album chart on , spending 29 weeks on the chart and peaking at number 5. The album received far more attention from the music press in the UK than in the United States, and was reviewed in Q Magazine, Sounds and NME. The album failed to secure distribution in the United States when it was first released and was first issued in the U.S. in August 1988, when Rough Trade included it on their CD release of the band's first full-length album, Surfer Rosa. At the same time, the two releases were issued on separate vinyl records by Rough Trade. That same month, 4AD also released Surfer Rosa and Come On Pilgrim on CD together in the UK. This has been the standard UK CD release ever since, only being out of print for about six months in 1998. Subsequent U.S. CD releases have split them in two. In 1992, Elektra Records issued Come On Pilgrim and Surfer Rosa on separate CDs in the U.S. After 4AD re-acquired the band's US distribution rights in 2004, they were again released on CD separately; this version of Come On Pilgrim was the first CD release to carry the 4AD catalogue number (MAD 709).
