Strange Behavior is an album by Animotion released by Casablanca Records. It was the last album to be released by Casablanca before the record label folded. The single "I Engineer" hit #2 in Germany and #6 in Switzerland in 1986. The single "I Want You" hit #27 in Germany and #84 in the United States. The album went to #21 in Switzerland and reached #71 on the Billboard 200 chart.
The sophomore effort from L.A. new wavers Animotion locates the exact midpoint between trendy synth pop and AOR crunch. Slickly produced by the well-traveled Richie Zito, the ten songs alternate bright keyboard stabs with guitarist Don Kirkpatrick's power chords, and every track has a hook that sounds market-tested – making Strange Behavior play like the soundtrack to some mid-'80s action flick. That wouldn't be such a bad thing, since a few songs have real staying power – in particular, song doctor Holly Knight's "I Engineer," with its chanted chorus and take-charge message. But, unfortunately, none of the tracks possess the same sleazy charm that made Animotion's 1985 single "Obsession" a pop and dance chart-topper. Hearing vocalists Bill Wadhams and Astrid Plane tossing bad pickup lines at each other on that song was a big part of its appeal, but here the pair is mostly disconnected, alternating leads and only playing off one another on "Out of Control," with much less impressive results. A little warmth – or just carnal heat – from the two would have gone a long way on this album, which is ultimately too cool and polished for its own good.Review by Dan LeRoy, Allmusic.com
My favorite Animotion album out there. There isn't one poor song on the whole CD. Each adds their own individual flavor to the mix, even the songs that didn't top the charts. Ironically, the songs that didn't top the charts (only a few did: Strange Behavior, Anxiety, I Want You, I Engineer) tend to be better and much more rock-heavy. Overall, Strange Behavior is an excellent album for anyone that appreciates New Wave and 80s rock/pop bands.Review by Alex, Amazon.com
