Psychotic Sounds For Freaks and Weirdos
The album subtitle 'Psychotic Sounds for Freaks and Weirdos', was created by two fans from the official Horrors forum. The band's lead singer, Faris Badwan asked fans on The Horum 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' is 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.

Famous quotes containing the words psychotic, sounds and/or freaks:
“Some parents were awful back then and are awful still. The process of raising you didn’t turn them into grown-ups. Parents who were clearly imperfect can be helpful to you. As you were trying to grow up despite their fumbling efforts, you had to develop skills and tolerances other kids missed out on. Some of the strongest people I know grew up taking care of inept, invalid, or psychotic parents—but they know the parents weren’t normal, healthy, or whole.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
“Denotation by means of sounds and markings is a remarkable abstraction. Three letters designate God for me; several lines a million things. How easy becomes the manipulation of the universe here, how evident the concentration of the intellectual world! Language is the dynamics of the spiritual realm. One word of command moves armies; the word liberty entire nations.”
—Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)
“There’s a quality of legend about freaks. Like a person in a fairy tale who stops you and demands that you answer a riddle. Most people go through life dreading they’ll have a traumatic experience. Freaks were born with their trauma. They’ve already passed their test in life. They’re aristocrats.”
—Diane Arbus (1923–1971)
