The Story
Strange Free World is the second album by British alternative rock band Kitchens of Distinction. It is the follow-up to their 1989 debut Love Is Hell and is available on CD and vinyl.
Noted producer Hugh Jones, who worked with Echo & the Bunnymen on their 1981 album Heaven Up Here, among many others, helped KOD to sound more at ease in the studio.
It is often considered one of the group's best works, as well as possibly its most popular and commercially successful, charting at #45 on the UK Albums Chart.
Their allusive, complex lyrics were ground-breaking - vocalist Patrick Fitzgerald sang about life as an unreconciled gay man in a way that was far from in-keeping with the then-trends for gay pop. Their Margaret Thatcher protest song, 'Margaret's Injection' also caused much controversy.
