American rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1965. Core members: Jim Morrison (vocals), Ray Manzarek (keyboards), Robby Krieger (guitar), John Densmore (drums). Known for a distinctive organ-led sound, theatrical live shows and landmark albums (The Doors, Strange Days, L.A. Woman).

Signed to Elektra Records; breakthrough with the 1967 debut album The Doors; Jim Morrison (lead singer) died in 1971; the band continued briefly afterwards. Famous tracks include "Light My Fire" and "Riders on the Storm."

Reviewers praise The Doors' early studio work and their powerful live identity. Strange Days and the 1967 debut are frequently singled out; L.A. Woman is celebrated as a blues return. Post‑Morrison records are treated as mixed but historically relevant. Live releases and anniversary editions attract collector interest.
