The “weird” Stooges album- s/t is the rough debut and Raw Power the angry “if no one’s gonna listen to us, fuck it” release. I used to prefer s/t, but I get why the other two are traditionally more revered now and really vibe with everything. For proto-punk, the musicianship is solid and there’s plenty of memorable hooks here. If you want something Velvet Underground-adjacent with more of an edge, this is for you. A-

Another great Stooges album. Loved it!
Decent album but honestly sorta forgettable. The songs are generally too long on here and don't hold my attention. Still, it's Iggy and I do like Iggy. 3/5
