Strange House

Strange House is the debut album by The Horrors. It entered the UK album charts at No. 37. The band announced the title via a MySpace bulletin on 11 January 2007. It was released on 5 March 2007 on Loog Records. Several alternative titles for the album were considered, including Through Wax Seals and Padlocks,[citation needed]  a line taken from their song "Gloves". The album consists mostly of previously released material, however several of these tracks were re-recorded or remixed.[citation needed]

A special edition including a DVD in a gatefold digipack was also released, which contained three music videos ("Sheena is a Parasite", "Count in Fives", and "Gloves"), three live performances (one full-length and two short sets), an interview, and a photo gallery.

The band's lead singer, Faris Badwan asked fans on the forum to suggest a name for their then yet-to-be-released album, before the title was finalised. The tag line "Psychotic Sounds for Freaks and Weirdos" was not only a subtitle to the album, but was used on all promotional material for Strange House. It is considered that Strange House is named after The Attack's song of the same name.[citation needed] ==Track listing[ edit] == ===Special Edition bonus DVD[ edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] ===
