Release
Шаблон:Album ratings The album was met with moderate commercial success and favorable reviews. The single "Sick of Myself" reached #2 on the Billboard Modern Rock chart and appeared on the top 100 pop song charts of the day. Critic David Browne of Entertainment Weekly, who included 100% Fun on his year's-best list, wrote in his review that it "makes you feel as if a good pop hook can solve any crisis."[2] The title of the album was derived from Kurt Cobain's 1994 suicide note.[3]
Reissue
In 2018, independent vinyl reissue label Intervention Records announced that it would be releasing Artist-Approved 2 LP Expanded Editions of 100% Fun, Altered Beast, and Girlfriend. The three albums will also be released on CD/SACD. Intervention also announced a first time on vinyl reissue of Son of Altered Beast.[4]
In Popular Culture
The song "Sick of Myself" was covered by Bowling for Soup on their album Bowling for Soup Goes to the Movies. In 2005, indie rock band Death Cab For Cutie also performed a cover of the song for NPR's World Cafe.[5]
"Everything Changes" was featured in the 1995 film The Babysitters Club. It came on during a tense moment in the film, when 13-year-old Stacy has to come to grips with her diabetes, as well as get over the 18-year-old she has a crush on. The song plays dramatically after she has lied to her crush about being 18.
"Sick of Myself" appeared on an episode of Hindsight.
