Biography
Buffalo, United States (1985 – present)
Iris”, featured on the soundtrack to the 1998 film City of Angels. Currently, the band consists of John Rzeznik (guitar, vocals), Robby Takac (vocals, bass) and Mike Malinin (drums).
Early in their career, the Goo Goo Dolls were frequently dismissed by critics as mere imitators of The Replacements; however, the band refined its sound to be more mainstream, which helped it become one of the most popular adult alternative rock bands of the latter half of the ’90s, selling millions of records to audiences largely unfamiliar with their inspirations. That’s no bitch on the band, either — their music simply improved in craft and accessibility as the years progressed, and radio happened to be receptive to what a decade earlier would have been considered collegiate power pop. Thus, the band landed two huge hits with the acoustic ballads “
Name” and “Iris.”The Goo Goo Dolls were formed in Buffalo, NY, in 1985 by guitarist/vocalist Johnny Rzeznik and bassist Robby Takac, initially under the name the Sex Maggots (the new name was chosen from an ad in True Detective magazine at the behest of a local club owner).

I hate when Last.FM tells me that something is tagged incorrectly and corrects it to something that is incorrect. This band is THE Goo Goo Dolls, not just Goo Goo Dolls. Fix this shiz.

I have pretty low hopes for the new album... Let Love In was the last good album they put out. Something for the Rest of Us was too iffy and the new single is just terrible. Maybe I'm wrong, but they need to stop pandering to what's trendy and just write good songs again.

I love how people say "Goo Goo Dolls are so much more than Iris", I've heard their entire discography and I have to say they are one of the blandest bands out there. Maybe its my parents fault for always listening to "A Boy Named Goo" in the car, Iris is certainly their only good song...as cliche as it sounds, and I hate the top songs usually.

They hit my top band slot easily once I listened to them... Can't stop now. Probably won't get sick of them for awhile.
