		In fact, close attention to "Tigermilk" brings out more details of Murdoch's master plan: the way he develops characters by accruing incidental details, his narrator's appearances and disappearances, his low-key jokes ("So I gave myself to God/There was a pregnant pause before He said OK"), his intertextual games.
		If all "Tigermilk" had going for it was its words, it'd still be pretty solid -- on the level of a good Ron Sexsmith or Vic Chesnutt album.
		Belle and Sebastian's lithe, light-fingered arrangements, augmented with strings and a bit of trumpet, and especially Murdoch's tender but careful enunciation, recall Nick Drake and Donovan, and there's a bit of the Smiths in their artful guitar gymnastics and renunciation of direct force.

	Belle and Sebastian's 'Tigermilk'
		Tigermilk is Belle and Sebastian's first album, which was originally released in 1996 with an all-vinyl run of only 1000 on 'Electric Honey Records' - the label on which students taking part in the Stow College Music Business Course release a record every year, usually a single.
		Eventually, Jeepster (to whom the band signed immediately after Tigermilk was first released) agreed to put out a new edition of the album with different cover art, and in 1999 - after The Boy with the Arab Strap but before Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like A Peasant - the re-release came out.
		Tigermilk has much more in common with If You're Feeling Sinister than any of their later albums; Stuart Murdoch sings lead on all of the tracks, the instrumentation is relatively bare, and many of the songs seem to be written from the point of view of a geeky schoolboy.

	Usounds - le Internacional
		Tigermilk was recorded four years ago and has finally been re-released on CD by Matador Records.
		If there's anything to be said about this band's progression, it's that maybe with the release of this first album, coming as it has on the heels of the critically acclaimed "Boy with the Arab Strap" and "If You're Feeling Sinister" the band can roll into a kind of regression.
		Belle and Sebastian play their best tunes off the cuff -- the worst thing that could happen to these guys is to get them in a studio with some perfectionist producer fiddling with the sound 'til it loses its original intent.

		Tigermilk is simply gorgeous, an unaffected debut equal to the Smiths' finest work, and seemed to arrive fully formed out of nowhere in May 1996.
		Although "Tigermilk" was the bands debut - recorded with both limited time and resources at their disposal - it still shows the belles at their absolute best.
		"Tigermilk" fuses the sound of The Smiths at the height of their creative power with the ideals of the indie/lofi-movement of the 90s, creating - in all its simplicity - pop-music both more advanced and yet simpler and more truthful than anything done before it.

	The Unheard Music: Tigermilk
		A third LP is due out by fall on U.S. label Matador Records, a company that is picking up quite a stable of quirky international pop (not from New Zealand for a change) in the personages of Belle, Cornelius, and Solex.
		In an effort to figure out what all the hype is about, I recently procured a dub of the hard-to-find first album, Tigermilk.
		Tigermilk presents an amazingly strong collection of pop songs with a fresh, childlike spirit driving them.

	Belle & Sebastian : Tigermilk - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Belle & Sebastian's first album, Tigermilk, was initially pressed in a quantity of 1,000 on their own label, Electric Honey Recordings.
		As a result, once the group's second album, If You're Feeling Sinister, became a hit, there were no copies of Tigermilk available for newly converted fans and it remained unheard by the majority of the group's audience.
		Tigermilk was re-released in 1999 to the delight of the often cultish fans of Belle & Sebastian.

	ALBUM REVIEW: Belle and Sebastian: Tigermilk -- Re-release of a great debut (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Tigermilk, in its second release, has reached an amazing number 13 in the official UK album charts, a noteworthy accomplishment from a small Scottish band.
		Viewing Tigermilk in comparison to the band’s other releases If You’re Feeling Sinister (originally released in November, 1996) and The Boy With The Arab Strap (originally released in September, 1998) provides fascinating insight into the band’s style.
		Long-time fans of Belle and Sebastian have probably already bought Tigermilk to replace their worn-out copy; but for newer fans, yes, this album is nearly as good as their other two and will increase your admiration for the band.

	Belle & Sebastian - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Together they recorded some demos which were picked up by Stow College's Music Business course which, every year, produces and releases a single on the college's label, Electric Honey.
		As the band had a number of songs already and the label were extremely impressed with the demos, Belle and Sebastian (named after Belle et Sébastien, a children's book by French writer Cécile Aubry) were allowed to record a full-length album – Tigermilk.
		Tigermilk was also given a full release by Jeepster before the band started work on their next LP.

		It's remarkable, therefore, that Tigermilk is Belle and Sebastian's finest by some length; a gorgeous album poised somewhere in between the shambling Scottish charm of The Pastels and the delicate pathos of Nick Drake.
		The heart of Tigermilk is in frontman Stuart Murdoch's choral whisper; impossibly fragile elegies are spurred to greatness by the band's energetic Northern Soul rhythms and sprightly folk.
		Tigermilk, though, is replete with a muscular tension on tracks like "Expectations" and "I Don't Love Anyone" that downplays Belle and Sebastian's sometimes annoying tendency to drift into syrupy twee-ness.

	Do Something Pretty, Sojourners Magazine/September-October 1999
		Since recording Tigermilk, Belle and Sebastian has solidified its eight-person line-up and released two additional albums (If You’re Feeling Sinister and The Boy With the Arab Strap) and four EPs (the latter are only available as imports in the United States).
		Stuart Murdoch is the main songwriter, although Stevie Jackson, Isobel Campbell, and Stuart David contributed songs to the last album and some of the singles, and several of the band members have separate recording projects of their own or play in other groups.
		The tunes on Tigermilk are deeply informed by musical forebears that range from the Velvet Underground to ‘60s soul artists, with a touch of art rock, folk, and Donovan.

	cmj.com \| new music first
		Tigermilk, the first release by Scottish pop outfit Belle And Sebastian, was recorded in 1996 for a music business class at a Glasgow college.
		Only 1,000 vinyl copies of the album were pressed, but now Matador has reissued the album for domestic, digital consumption.
		The melodies, which soar at the speed of a spring landscape rushing past a car window go a long way toward disproving B&S's rep as precious wimps.

	Stolen Kisses : Tigermilk
		To be frightfully honest, as honesty often is, part of charm of Belle and Sebastian's first album Tigermilk had been the impracticality of it all.
		Each listen to a cassette dub of the album was a mildly dangerous proposition--the tape could snap, and each listen brought the tape closer to an end.
		Tigermilk in its proper release on whatever format is still the same album as before.

	Music CD: Tigermilk. Belle & Sebastian Tracks: The State I Am In, Expectations, She's Losing It, You're Just A Baby, ...
		Usually this stuff gets a B+ by the instructor, is listened to a few times by family members and close friends of the 'band', then gets forgotten, and the students graduate and get real jobs or something.
		The word-of-mouth success of Tigermilk thankfully led to the group's continuing efforts of translating Murdoch's songs and ideas into actual music.
		The 10 songs here have such a natural pop sensibility, such a grace and resonance, it's hard now to believe that Tigermilk was only originally intended as a small-time project between seven Glaswegian friends (the original vinyl release was limited to 1,000 copies).

		While Tigermilk is up there, I was confused as to what it had to offer that made him love it more than the later, critically acclaimed albums.
		Tigermilk was such a limited release, I never heard it until its re-release in July 1999.
		Tigermilk contains the excitement of an ambitious band who are both shy and proud.

		Alongside Murdoch and David in the band's line-up were violinist Sarah Martin, guitarist Stevie Jackson, keyboardist Chris Geddes, drummer Richard Colburn and cellist Isobel Campbell.
		Tigermilk showcased Belle and Sebastian trademark sound, poetic and delicate songs with intricate melody lines backed by intimate and eclectic band arrangements.
		Tigermilk became an underground sensation with music fans and critics, and the band were snapped up by independent record label, Jeepster Records.

	Rolling Stone : Tigermilk : Review
		Both factions could probably use a chocolate malted and a kind word now and then, but the odds are better that this reissue of the band's wicked-rare 1995 debut, Tigermilk, will be the only nice thing to happen to any Belle and Sebastian fan all summer.
		Tigermilk offers a rough sketch of the band's virtues: acoustic guitars, zippy melodies, strings, horns and the sullen schoolboy wit of Stuart Murdoch, who torments his nanny with a breathy voice that evokes Al Stewart of "Year of the Cat" fame after a proper clawing from Morrissey.
		Tigermilk will never be anyone's favorite, but it's prime Belle and Sebastian -- the beautiful music of shut-in roues stung by the pangs of youth and taking it out on us.

		But, in 30 years time, when Belle And Sebastian are nothing more than an entry in a Colin Larkin book, "Tigermilk" may be rediscovered by the automated youth of the future.
		Tigermilk is by far my favourite of belle and sebastian's albums.
		They write better songs than the beatles and the rolling stones and aren't anywhere as popular, and that's exactly how it should be.

	Tigermilk - Belle & Sebastian - Music Records Shopping at dooyoo.co.uk
		'Tigermilk' was recorded while Belle and Sebastian were still in art college and was submitted as part of their final year project.
		Thankfully for those not able to afford the £400 per copy asking price it was released again in 1999.
		It is difficult to believe that 'Tigermilk' was recorded on a limited budget because it has such a lush feel to it.

	Belle And Sebastian - Tigermilk - almost cool music review
		If you're into independent music even in the slightest, you've certainly heard the name of Belle and Sebastian dropped more than your fair share of times.
		With such a huge demand for the original, what better thing to do than run a re-release and not only satisfy the people who couldn't (or wouldn't) shell out the big bucks for the original, as well as make a few bucks on the deal.
		This is the college-project that basically launched the band and started it all.

	Adrian's Album Reviews - Belle And Sebastian
		Belle and Sebastian were formed by Stuart Murdoch (singer/writer) and Stuart David (bass) and took part in a College Music Business Course that produces and releases one record a year, nearly always a single.
		It follows on from the likes of 'We Rule The School' on 'Tigermilk' but is far more accomplished and moving.
		I have all their stuff and honestly think this is over-rated compared with Tigermilk.

		Standouts among the other tracks are "Expectations," the tale of a square peg at school who is "known for being strange/Making life-size models of the Velvet Underground in clay," the lyrically wistful but musically charged "She's Losing It," and "I Don't Love Anyone," which references Felt, a band Belle & Sebastian cites among its influences.
