"Fuel My Fire" was based on the Cosmic Psychos song "Lost Cause",[9] and was covered by The Prodigy on their 1997 album The Fat of the Land.[10] The Independent reported that the album's name Hungry for Stink was derived from an advert the band saw in Bear Magazine, a gay publication "for and about big hairy men".[11]


Critical reception


AllMusic reviewer Stephen Thomas Erlewine noted that "While L7 sounds tremendous on Hungry for Stink, the band has neglected to write any songs", but added "But when you're caught in the middle of a massive guitar grind this good, songs don't matter much."[1] Rolling Stone stated: "Chief songwriter Donita Sparks and company kick inter-gender butt by means of power chords and grunge abandon."[5]
