EP22: The Stooges "Loose"
from The History of Heavy Podcast
The Stooges are to punk what Black Sabbath is to metal. That is, they effectively invented the genre and all of its splinter subgenres which would all sound completely different without them. Like Sabbath, The Stooges don't get enough credit for how multi-dimensional their music was. Elements of Free Jazz, psychedelia and even art rock are as prominent as their acclaimed shambolic electrical blues approach to garage rock was. All of these influences come together with beautiful chaos on their second record, Funhouse. For our on-going conversation about the history of heavy music, we focus on the albums second track, "Loose."
