The band that turned 'Cum on Feel the Noize' into a hard-rock calling card.
For the full Quiet Riot experience, start with 'Cum on Feel the Noize.' Then try 'The Wild And The Young' to hear that same arena-ready energy in a deeper cut.
Quiet Riot's 1983 album 'Metal Health' went to number one on the Billboard chart, which was a rare thing for a hard rock band at the time. The single 'Cum on Feel the Noize' became their signature, a straightforward anthem built for arenas. Songs like 'Party All Night' and 'Alive And Well' from their catalog follow that same blueprint of big riffs and chanted choruses.
The band formed in 1973 but spent nearly a decade playing shows before breaking through. Their 1983 album 'Metal Health' and its singles defined their sound. After the mid-80s peak, the band's profile receded, though frontman Kevin DuBrow remained the constant through various lineups until his death in 2007.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
