Strange Hobby is an uncredited cover album by Arjen Anthony Lucassen, released in 1996. The album and the booklet contained no information about Lucassen and did not explain who was responsible for the recordings, to make the album even more "strange".[1]
The album features covers of songs that have influenced Lucassen's musical development, mainly from the 1960s.[1] As he did in his solo album Pools of Sorrow, Waves of Joy, Lucassen makes all the vocals and all the instruments (except drums and synthesizer), and arranged all the songs himself.
The album was re-released on 8 July 2016 with four previously unreleased bonus tracks; this time, Lucassen was officially credited as the artist.[2]
