Review
I've got to tell you about Belle and Sebastian's 'Tigermilk'. This album takes me back to those cozy late-night study sessions in college, where the gentle melodies would keep me company as I pored over my textbooks. It's hard to believe this beauty was recorded in just five days total!
Stuart Murdoch's songwriting on 'Tigermilk' is something else. The way he weaves personal stories with fictional narratives is so captivating. I remember listening to 'The State I Am In' for the first time and feeling like I was right there with the characters, living their experiences. And don't even get me started on 'Electronic Renaissance' - that lo-fi sound is such a fun departure from the rest of the album!
What's really cool about 'Tigermilk' is how it kickstarted Belle and Sebastian's career. Can you believe it was initially released in a run of just 1,000 copies? Talk about a hidden treasure! It's no wonder BBC radio DJs John Peel and Mark Radcliffe couldn't stop raving about it. This album might have started small, but it's grown into a beloved classic that still resonates with listeners today. It's like a time capsule of indie pop goodness that never gets old. - Jennifer
