The Stooges' debut album The Stooges was released on August 5, 1969 in the United States, and one month later in the United Kingdom. The album was not a huge commercial success—it charted on the Billboard 200 at No. 106. Almost one year later, on July 7, 1970, the band released their second album, Fun House, which did not chart on the Billboard 200, the UK Albums Chart, or any other international music album chart. In February 1973, the Stooges released their third album, Raw Power. It charted in the Billboard 200 at No. 182, in the UK at least at No. 44, and is the best charting album by the Stooges in the United Kingdom to date. After the release of Raw Power, the band (also known at the time as Iggy & the Stooges) announced their break-up. The Stooges reunited thirty-four years after their official dissolution, and released The Weirdness. Although the album was their second-best charting album in the United States, peaking at number 130, its overall commercial success is similar to that of the Stooges' first three albums.

The Stooges are described by critics as one of the key bands of punk music, in the genre described as "proto-punk", an early form of punk rock. Many musicians, particularly those in punk bands, cite the Stooges as a huge influence.
