Released in 1985, it blends sleek synths, melodic soft rock and theatrical hooks into a polished, radio-ready set. The record is best known for the single A Criminal Mind, a signature song that helped define Gowan’s early career and gave the album lasting recognition beyond Canada. With its sharp songwriting, crisp production and emotional directness, Strange Animal sits comfortably in the mid-1980s pop-rock mainstream while still standing out for its personality and ambition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \u003c!-- Genres --\u003e\n    \n      \u003cp\u003eGenre: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pop-rock-vinyl-records\"\u003ePop \u0026amp; Rock\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n\n    \n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Release tab content --\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv\u003e\n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist: \u003c\/strong\u003e Gowan\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLabel: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/cbs-records-international\"\u003eCBS\u003c\/a\u003e – SBP 8074\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n          \n          \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e LP, Album, Stereo\u003c\/div\u003e\n          \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits: \u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/vinyl-records-store-australia\/country_australia\"\u003eAustralia\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReleased: \u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/all\/year_1985\"\u003e1985\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n        \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre: \u003c\/strong\u003e\n          \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pop-rock-vinyl-records\"\u003ePop \u0026amp; Rock\u003c\/a\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n        \n        \n        \n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- Tracklist tab content --\u003e\n  \n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eA1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Gowan+Cosmetics\"\u003eCosmetics\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Gowan+Desperate\"\u003eDesperate\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Gowan+City+Of+The+Angels\"\u003eCity Of The Angels\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Gowan+Walking+On+Air\"\u003eWalking On Air\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA5 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Gowan+Burning+Torches+Of+Hope\"\u003eBurning Torches Of Hope\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB1 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Gowan+Keep+The+Tension+On\"\u003eKeep The Tension On\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB2 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Gowan+Guerilla+Soldier\"\u003eGuerilla Soldier\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB3 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Gowan+You're+A+Strange+Animal\"\u003eYou'Re A Strange Animal\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB4 \u003ca rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/results?search_query=Gowan+A+Criminal+Mind\"\u003eA Criminal Mind\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"CBS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44391398703169,"sku":"8463799","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1474\/5258\/files\/MjUtMTcwOC5qcGVn.jpg?v=1786605696","url":"https:\/\/www.dutchvinyl.com.au\/products\/gowan-strange-animal-379197","provider":"Dutch Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
