Howl of the Lonely Crowd represents the fruition of the affection with which Comet Gain are held: recorded and produced variously by British musical icon Edwyn Collins, Ryan Jarman of The Cribs, Brian O'Shaughnessy (My Bloody Valentine, Primal Scream) and Alasdair Maclean of The Clientele, who also contributed guitar.

With added input from Matthew Sawyer (The Ghosts), Helen King (Shrag), and a blast of Terry Edwards' (Spiritualized, Gallon Drunk, The Tindersticks) legendary trumpet on the rousing mod anthem The Weekend Dreams, the record captures a band fully in their stride and able to realise their full potential.

As Feck remarked on being given access to the full range of Edwyn Collin's studio with its vast collection of guitars: they (the guitars) look great and were played on great records, which I tried to channel in that way a tribesman would eat the brain of his smartest enemy ' though I didn't eat any part of Edwyn.
