The Doors, out of the myriad bands in the late 60's american musical landscape, are outshined only by the VU in terms of influence. The doors opened up the dark side of music to a LOT of people.
Without them we may never have been able to klill the fucking hippies.

I do think that much of the influence of the VU is not through their actual recorded output, but through the recorded output of the acts and bands and artists who took the VU as their direct source language and proceeded from there. These bands pushed through the VU way.
