The same year, Lucassen, tired after the complexity of Ayreon, decided to do “something really simple, like punky or heavy versions of 1960s songs” and released Strange Hobby, a cover album without artist name or any personnel credited at the idea of the record company to make people curious about the record. According to Lucassen, “it didn’t work because people knew how it was and they weren’t so interested, so it was another flop. But I think it’s good. Maybe the songs are too much alike, too short and after 10 songs you think, ‘Oh, that’s it?!’ But I do like that album and I’m not ashamed that I did it.'”
