Come My Fanatics.... is the second studio album by English doom metal band Electric Wizard. Terrorizer ranked the album 37th in their list of the 50 definitive doom albums you must hear![2] The album is slower and more low-end heavy than most other albums in the doom metal genre before it.[3]

It was re-released bundled with their first album Electric Wizard in 1999 with the samples in "Wizard in Black" and "Son of Nothing" removed. A remastered version was then released on CD and LP in 2006 with two bonus tracks.
