Hungry for Stink is the fourth studio album by L7, released in July 1994 by Slash Records. The album peaked at number 117 on the Billboard 200 chart,[2] as well as number 2 on the Heatseekers Albums chart.[3]

"Fuel My Fire" was based on the Cosmic Psychos song "Lost Cause",[4] and was covered by The Prodigy on their 1997 album The Fat of the Land.[5] 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".[6]
