The Stooges are an American rock'n'roll band that was first active from around 1967 to 1974, and then reformed in 2003.
The Stooges sold rather few records in their original existence and often performed for indifferent or hostile audiences. Nevertheless, The Stooges are often regarded as hugely influential both on the nascent heavy metal and punk rock. Singer Iggy Pop and his wild onstage antics were often the main focus of attention.
