Tigertown Pictures is an album by British indie pop band Comet Gain.[4] It followed a change of record label to Kill Rock Stars and introduced a new band line-up with the exception of frontman/songwriter David Christian.[5]

Critical reception

CMJ wrote: "Boy/girl lead vocals, astoundingly rough time changes and drunken yet still meaningful lyrics make this effort another interesting episode in this band's soap-operatic career."[5]
