THE STOOGES, GIMME DANGER

Gimme Danger! First emerging in Ann Arbor, Michigan, during a countercultural revolution, the Stooges' aggressive, powerful rock 'n' roll style exploded onto the musical landscape of the late '60s. Blowing audiences away with a blend of rock, blues, R&B and free jazz, the band that started Iggy Pop laid the foundation for what would later be called punk and alternative rock. Jim Jarmusch's new film Gimme Danger traces the Stooges' epic journey as one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Gimme Danger provides the context in which the Stooges emerged musically, culturally, politically and historically, tracing their adventures and misadventures, showing their inspirations and the reasons for their early commercial challenges, all the way to their arrival in the Rock Hall of Fame.
