The Doors are definitely the single greatest American band of all time, and are serious contenders for the greatest band in the world

how did they beat the velvets at art rock? the doors wrote great songs
but nothing about them was avant-grade or envelope-pushing like what lou and cale did.
based on that opinion alone i’m going to disregard everything you said and close this thread.

Hell, the Murder Mystery isn’t even as good as fucking Alabama Song or Running Blue
Levi Campbell
I like them too.
But the 70s also destroys them.
Zeppelin, Pink Floyd et al.

you're so stupid and yet i can't disagree with anything you said it's very frustrating
Xavier Gray
doors are great, but velvets, and others are great for other reasons. also bob dylan is ahem much better than the doors
Dylan Allen
What do you mean?

tvu isn't art rock

Dismissing psychedelic rock as hippy flower child shit is pure retardation. Also, Deep Purple, Clear Light and Iron Butterfly were the bands that did that, not The fucking Doors

You’ve never heard of art rock? That’s surprising, it’s been around since the mid sixties
Oliver Cox
rock is garbage rock can't be art
Dominic Martin
did you literally say rock is reddit? I don’t think i’ve heard a more reddit opinion.
Cameron Butler
Agreed.

>Dismissing psychedelic rock as hippy flower child shit is pure retardation
Nobody did that. There are psychedelic rock groups that aren’t hippy flower child shit, like the Doors
>Also, Deep Purple,
Formed after the Doors
>Clear Light
Moderately successful group, not a lot of influence
>and Iron Butterfly
Formed after the Doors
>were the bands that did that, not The fucking Doors
The Doors paved the way for these other bands. You can hear a clear Doors influence on bands like Iron Butterfly
Sorry man, you haven’t given a compelling reason for me to not think of them as the greatest band of all time

Oh, we're talking about the greatest band of all time? The Mothers of Invention, without a doubt.

Okay Brendan Fraser‘s character from Blast From The Past, since the mid 60s there’s been this thing called art rock. A band named the Beatles (British group, huge success in the 60s before breaking up 1970) were hugely influential on this front. The Beatles weren’t the first art rock group, but they were one of the most famous ones. The Velvet Underground, the Doors, The Beach Boys, and Frank Zappa were all big art rock people. It’s an interesting thing to explore, and I hope you have fun. Welcome to the mid-20th century!

Damn Ringo has big hands, you think he has a big dick? If you know what I mean
Gavin Wilson
>great rock singer
Morrison isn't an exceptional singer whatsoever
I mean he can hold a tune but he's really a one trick pony
His lyrics were top tier tho
Zachary Moore
Can't believe that thing was a Beatle
Thomas Williams
Not only is it "as good" as the Doors, it's better.
Juan Stewart
He definitely did
Aaron Flores
what did he mean by this?

i've only listened to their first three albums
i liked their first album quite a bit
second album was okay
third album was completely forgettable, i sat through it, and i don't remember a single song off it or how it sounds at all
Samuel Morales
You should listen to their first six albums. Relisten to the first three first

Man doing cocaine off this record in the 1979, that’s what’s the fucks up. The golden days of doing hard drugs w my friends, playing AC/DC, KISS, Black Sabbath, Doors, Led Zeppillin, & Rolling Stones Records, drinking beer, fuckin cheap Chinese hookers, & watching NFL football. Bitch those were the days. Everything sucks fucking cock now, the world started really sucking fat wang after Woodstock 1999. I hate the modern era. Life was simpler then. Everything is much more complicated now. And my old friends have gone their seperate ways......
