Belle and Sebastian's debut album, "Tigermilk," was a foundational release for the band, establishing their signature blend of twee pop and introspective songwriting. It arrived at a time when indie pop was finding its footing in the mid-90s alternative scene.
- Recorded in a single day at CaVa Studios in Glasgow, the album was initially released in a limited run of 1,000 copies on Jeepster Recordings.
- The album's title is a reference to a song by the German band Die Sterne.
- "Tigermilk" was re-recorded and officially released again in 1999 after the band signed to a major label.
