LOS ANGELES - Kevin DuBrow, lead singer of the popular 1980s heavy metal band Quiet Riot, has been found dead from unknown causes at his home in Las Vegas, authorities said on Monday.
DuBrow, 52, was found dead at about 5:20 p.m. on Sunday, a spokeswoman for the Clark County Coroner’s Office said. She said an autopsy would be conducted to determine the cause of death.
“I can’t even find the words to say,” Quiet Riot bandmate Frankie Banali said on his Web site. “Please respect my privacy as I mourn the passing and honor the memory of my dearest friend, Kevin DuBrow.”
Quiet Riot, which was founded in the mid-1970s, topped the Billboard charts in 1983 with the album “Metal Health,” spurred on by the massive hit single “Cum on Feel the Noize.”
The band has since endured break-ups and personnel changes but released a new album in 2006 and continued to tour sporadically.
That sucks! I was a fan of them when I was a kid. I hope it's not drugs or suicide.

Heard this on another site, and was hoping that it wasn't true. Damn sad to see this.

Quiet Riot was one of the first bands I was a fan off based on my own musical tastes, and not because my parents liked them... I got to see them play and meet the band back in 01, which was a really cool thing.
This is sad...

"He was extended an invitation to cum feel the big noize in the sky, and he apparently accepted. Either that or his metal health just failed him.
Let's bang our heads in remembrance of him."

"I thought we were Quiet Riot?" "Says here we're Ratt."

Come on Feel the Noize was a great song. RIP. The original Slade version is better, but yeah, this was a good cover. RIP this dude, even though i've never been a fan of the band.

As long as you refer to that as your 'dark period' and you drank a lot of alcohol at the time, or snorted cocaine, it's excusable. Otherwise, it's not.
