What is The Doors?

The Doors kill only to clear the way for rebirth; they hint at the eternal rhythmic balance of life and death. Four Doors: John Densmore, drums. Ray Manzarek, organ. Robby Kreiger, guitar. And of course, Jim Morrison.

The Doors kill only to clear the way for rebirth; they hint at the eternal rhythmic balance of life and death. Four Doors: John Densmore, drums. Ray Manzarek, organ. Robby Kreiger, guitar. And of course, Jim Morrison. Morrison becomes intoxicated by the danger of his poetry, and, sexual in an almost psychopathic way. His richly textured voice taunts and teases and threatens and throbs. With incredible vocal control and the theatrical projection of a Shakespearean star, he plays with the audiences emotions. The Doors embodied the zeitgeist, with all of its spiritual awareness, and liberating transcendence of obsolete cultural values, but embodied it with a potency concentration and theatrical vehemence that was totally unexpected. They flaunted rather than soft-pedaled the threat that the new culture presented to the old culture, and both cultures were left rather reeling by the experience. Today, the majority of American icons are too busy riding to the hounds of commerce or favour, rather then riding the wave of uncompromising, primal, poetic energy that The Doors offered. When the Doors performed it was a religious experience between them and the audience. They were able to move people to a kind of emotional orgasm through the medium of words and music.

The Doors - what does it mean?

one of the most influential and kik ass rock bands of the 60's whose music still lives on today. led by jim morrison not only an artist but an amazing poet whos poetry aims to make its readers think outside the box to "break through to the other side" cross into the uknown. breaking free of the image you have made of yourself. "I like ideas about breaking away or overthrowing of established order."

whenever i listen to the doors my pants get a little tighter and people stare at me funny

The Doors - definition

A great band formed in 1965 by Ray Manzarek and Jim Morrison, later joined by guitarist Robby Krieger and drummer John Densmore. The group took their name from Aldous Huxley's 'The Doors of Perception'.The band started as a small band performing at local LA clubs like Whisky A Go'Go. As a record deal was presented to The Doors they recorded their self-titled debut album in only six days. The album sold 1 million copies and catapulted the band to #1 on the Billboard top 100 charts. As time continued the band went on to make a total of 9 albums in a short career of only 8 years due to Jim Morrison's tragic death due to heart failure on July 3, 1971. The Doors were inducted into the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame in 1993 and have sold a whopping 32.5 million albums and continue to inspire the young and old with beautiful ballads and soulful blues songs. The Doors will go down in history as one of the best bands of all time, not only because of the cult following they have amassed but their songs that make you think about your entire being and how prolific they were in a span of only a few short years.TELL ALL THE PEOPLE!

RIP Jim from all of your beloved fans who will never forget what you stood for. And a thank you to all the members of The Doors for making sweet sweet beautiful music.

The Doors

One of the most legendary bands to exist, most notably during the later 60's and early 70's and also one of the few rock bands ever to have a organist. An amazing organist at that too. Most notable song is Light my Fire.

The Doors

Late 60s/early 70s band fronted by Jim Morrison. Progressed from an amalgam of light and dark psychedelia to bluesy rock by the time of Jim Morrison's death. Known for Jim's voice and lyrics as well as their reliance on Ray Manzarek's organ; Jim's qualities stand out in longer tracks like "The End" and "When the Music's Over" as well as shorter tracks like "The Crystal Ship" and "Not to Touch the Earth."

"The Doors are overrated."

"The Doors are awesome!"

"Jim Morrison was a terrible frontman for The Doors."

"Jim Morrison was an excellent frontman for The Doors!"
