I love this album the end and break on thru are master pieces...

Good album,but why is it here.I mean,why don't have here Black Flag but why have The Doors?I will look for the Beatles,at least Helter Skelter is closer to metal than any Doors song.

Agreed, The Doors is one of my favorite bands but they are NOT metal, I wouldnt even put them on this site, especially if they wont let BMTH on here

The atmosphere on this album is out of this world. Psychedelic overtones and acid rock passages may or may not be to everyone's tastes, but it worked for the band 45 years ago. This, their debut, is a work of beauty. Why it is on Metal Storm though I'll never know.

In relation to your last sentence, I've had the same thought. I've never ever seen this band mentioned in any documentaries about the history of heavy metal as being one of the precursors or pioneers of the sub-genre of rock music that we all love and that this site is dedicated to. Not to worry, I like them and have their albums so I'm okay with it.

As do many of us. The founders of the website deemed them relevant enough to add them, I suppose. :/

Noooo, the reason is that Herzebeth reviewed an album of their's (don't ask me why he thought it would be relevant for the saite, though) hence an empty profile got automatically created.

Ah, that explains it. At least the profile is no longer visible though. I remember a time when it was featured for some reason.

yeah but a couple of us rebelled against it, so it was made invisible again, much to the chagrin of Herz.

Too good for Metal Storm 11/10

Never thought highly of The Doors. Probably the most overrated band out there. The End is a pretty good song, though. Heard it off the Venture Bros. when they did that reference to Apocalypse Now.

100% agreed.

I used to have a similar sentiment, but they *clicked* for me about a year ago. You could end up getting nothing out of this, but I got into The Doors through some of their albums that weren't as widely received (in particular, The Soft Parade).

So, The Doors are on here but not Yes? Okay.

No it won't. Regardless of its score, it'll remain invisible on the site (and for good reason).

You're right, I forgot about that.

Doors are hidden. They won't.

Unfortunately I could never get into this band.

This is the kind of album I couldn't see myself getting into but I actually really enjoyed it! I remember hearing 'People are Strange' at the end of an old flash game called Kindergarten Killer back around 2005 time and quite enjoying it .

9.0/10 for me - 'Break on Through (To the Other Side)' is the standout track. 'Light My Fire' and 'The End' are both also fantastic.
