Fiction Factory
Fiction Factory were a Scottish new wave band from Perth. Formed in 1982, they are best known for their single "(Feels Like) Heaven", which peaked at #6 on the UK Singles Chart. The band originated from members of the ska group The Rude Boys, with the core lineup consisting of Kevin Patterson (vocals), Eddie Jordan (keyboards), Chic Medley (guitar), Graham McGregor (bass), and Mike Ogletree (drums). Fiction Factory’s sound combined melodic synthesizer textures with introspective lyrics, characteristic of early 1980s new wave music.
Their debut album, Throw the Warped Wheel Out (1984), received moderate critical attention but did not replicate the commercial success of their debut single. A follow-up album, Another Story (1985), failed to chart significantly, leading to the band's subsequent dissolution.
