Default Quiet Riot Lead Singer Dies

Quote:
CNN) -- Kevin DuBrow, the lead singer of the 1980s heavy metal band Quiet Riot, has died, CNN has confirmed. He was 52.


Kevin DuBrow and Quiet Riot hit No. 1 with "Metal Health" in 1983.


DuBrow died at his home in Las Vegas, Nevada, according to TMZ.com. The Clark County coroner's office was examining the body to determine the cause of death, according to TMZ.

"I'm at a loss for words. I've just lost my best friend," Quiet Riot drummer Frankie Banali told CNN. "Out of respect for both Kevin and his family, I won't comment further. There's going to be a lot of speculation out there, and I won't add to that. I love him too much."

Quiet Riot hit the top of the charts with its 1983 album, "Metal Health," considered by some sources as the first heavy metal album to hit No. 1. The album was driven by the group's cover of Slade's "Cum on Feel the Noize," which hit the Top 40.

Classic.
Record the record so you could listen to it on your Walkman..


In many ways the defining sound of Heavy Metal in the 1980's.

"Come on feel the noise", with its witty lyrics, is the only one I remember from this group.

That was one of the bands that got me into hard rock, then metal. I'm not a huge fan of them overall, but I give them props for that first album. RIP.

Who is that, Winger? I prefer Warrant myself. Or Cinderella. Or Steelheart.

"After the Rain" is difficult to resist. Night Ranger's "Sister Christian" is tough to beat though when you're talking about all time metal classics.

There was period in the 80's where they would literally sign anyone with long hair to a contract. The results speak for themselves. What the hell does "Your motoring, what's your choice for flight" supposed to mean?
