The Stooges

Fun House is the second studio album by American rock band The Stooges. It was released on July 7, 1970 by Elektra Records. Though initially commercially unsuccessful, Fun House developed a strong cult following. Like its predecessor (1969’s The Stooges) and its successor (1973’s Raw Power), it is generally considered integral in the development of punk rock.

Pop indicated that iconic blues singer Howlin’ Wolf “was really pertinent for me on Fun House. That stuff is Wolfy, at least as I could do it.”

Music critic Robert Christgau characterized the album as “genuinely ‘avant-garde’ rock” because of the music’s apt “repetitiveness“, “solitary new-thing saxophone“, and “L.A. Blues“, which showcases the “old avant-garde fallacy … trying to make art about chaos by reproducing same.” Greg Kot called Fun House “the Stooges’ punk jazz opus“.

In 2003, Rolling Stone ranked Fun House number 191 on their list of the 500 greatest albums of all time, maintaining the rating in a 2012 revised list. Melody Maker said that it is, “no contest, the greatest rock n’ roll album of all time“. Lenny Kaye, writing for eMusic, called it a “rock and roll classic” and “one of the most frontal, aggressive, and joyously manic records ever.”

Jon Smith at Drowned in Sound said:
Primitive, raw and incendiary, ‘Fun House’ threatens to break down into chaos right from the first note…. Ron Asheton (guitar), brother Scott (drums) and Dave Alexander (bass) rock so urgently you’d think their lives depended on it. Excess in everything was The Stooges’ philosophy. Opener ‘Down on the Street’, not content with one guitar playing the frantic solo, has two simultaneously surging up against each other. The adrenalin rush is unbeatable.

Uh
Aah
Ooh
Down on the street where the faces shine
Floatin’ around, I’m a real low mind
See a pretty thing
Ain’t no wall
See a pretty thing
It ain’t no wall
No wall
No wall
No wall

Ooh

Yeah deep in the night, I’m lost in love
Yeah deep in the night, I’m lost in love
A thousand lights
Look at you
A thousand lights
Look at you
I’m lost
I’m lost
I’m lost, yeah
I’m lost
Lost, lost, lost

Ooh
Yeah
Yeah
Ooh, low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low
Low, low, low
Faces shine, real low mind
Real low mind
I’m a real low mind
Real low mind
