The Doors of the 21st Century brought together iconic Doors alumni and artists from the broader rock world to honor a legendary catalog. Formed in 2002 by Ray Manzarek and Robby Krieger with Ian Astbury of The Cult on lead vocals, the project offered a live-focused homage rather than studio releases. After lineup changes and a name shift, the band performed under the moniker Riders on the Storm from 2005 onward. While no official studio albums were released under this name, fans could secure live recordings and a notable TV performance that highlighted the group's year-long activity.
