I love a lot of punk music, but it tends to be the more disciplined and melodic punk bands like The Buzzc*cks and Ramones rather than the outright ear assaults made by the likes of The Sex Pistols and The Damned.
The Stooges were basically an inebriated garage rock band trying badly to sound like The Doors. Which I guess is their appeal.

The difference between the the clash and the stooges is the stooges tried something different. The Clash rode a wagonload of hype when they existed, hype they didn't deserve. The clash were a pseudo-revolutionary hard rock band trying to sound punkish.
.....the stooges were an inebriated garage band trying to sound like the who, james brown, and maybe little richard. The Doors comparison is probably meant to provoke people, so I won't bite.
