Which band’s lead singer was known for his "Lizard King" persona?

The '60s and '70s were a wild ride, man. Guitarists made love to their instruments on stage, drummers pounded away like they were trying to wake the dead, and most importantly, rock stars strutted around like peacocks.
I mean Elton John's Rocket Man blasted off in platforms so high he practically had real estate on the moon. And the suits? Let's just say Big Bird called - he wants his feathers back. David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust famously crash-landed from Mars, bringing a kaleidoscope of sexual ambiguity and face paint that made parents everywhere clutch their pearls.
But it wasn't all space glam. Some rockers went dark, channeling their inner demons or, in one case, a certain reptilian royalty. Because nothing says "take me seriously" like comparing yourself to a cold-blooded, tongue-flicking monarch.

Correct Answer: The Doors
The answer is: The Doors. Jim Morrison of The Doors embraced his inner reptile, dubbing himself the "Lizard King." Apparently, leather pants and brooding poetry weren't enough - he needed scales to complete the rock god image.Source
