It was his popularity and influence at the time giving him free reins over pretty much any project he was interested in.

The chaos of the records transferred to band dynamics and the band been broken up for slight period.

The Stooges had already made two seminal albums by the time work started on Raw Power. or Josh Homme of Queens of the Stone Age quoted the Stooges and this album especially as one of the best ever recorded. It was only years later when everyone from Kurt Cobain to J. Following it’s release the album enjoyed cult status at best. The album was Raw Power, one of the most quoted references to punk rock when it started and alternative rock styles until this day. This was the standout song off what is an already stellar third album by the slowly disintegrating Stooges. “ A world’s forgotten boy, the once who searches to destroy.” And behind the music you have a singer wailing with as much soul as Aretha or James Brown. Every instrument seems ready to stop from sheer exhaustion of playing this music. It sounds like the loudest, angriest band. The Stooges sound spills over from the recording. You could play them Search and Destroy and be confident they get a good idea of it. Say aliens decided to finally invade Earth and they decided they need to know what rock music is. As far as alternative rock music goes, Search and Destroy by the Stooges could serve as a perfection definition for what that is.
