The Riot Has Been Quieted

I just saw this piece of music news come across the wires:

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

You may read the whole story over here.

When I was a kid I used to love this band. They were one of the many that helped draw me into the world of hard rock and heavy metal. I wish there were bands like Quiet Riot still releasing music today.
