The first heavy metal band to top the pop charts, the California quartet was an overnight sensation thanks to their monster 1983 smash Metal Health. But their road to success had been long and far from easy, and when their star power quickly began to fade, the band's fall from grace was accelerated by the man most deserving of credit for taking them so far with his dogged persistence, singer Kevin DuBrow. Arguably the only rock star to talk himself out of a gig (Oasis' Gallagher brothers also come to mind), DuBrow began turning his frustration into verbal attacks toward all in sight, eventually isolating the band even more and almost single-handedly sealing their fate. By the time damage control set in, it was too late to turn the ship around, and Quiet Riot's fortunes only went from bad to worse, eventually resulting in DuBrow getting fired from his own band. He would eventually resurrect Quiet Riot in the '90s, but despite their best efforts, the once chart-topping band would remain forever exiled to the fringes of pop conscience, and what may have been intended as a chapter in rock history has become little more than a footnote. The story of Quiet Riot begins with vocalist Kevin DuBrow, who started the band in 1975 with guitarist Randy Rhoads, bassist Kelli Garni, and drummer Drew Forsyth. Contemporaries of Van Halen, the band cut their teeth in L.A. clubs but found it difficult to land a record deal in the disco-dominated days of the late '70s. Eventually securing a contract with Columbia Records in Japan, they recorded two moderately successful albums -- a 1978 eponymous debut and 1979's Quiet Riot II -- before losing Rhoads to Ozzy Osbourne's band (and later a tragic plane accident, rock & roll martyrdom, immortality, etc.). Quiet Riot disbanded and DuBrow formed a new band under his own name with drummer Frankie Banali and Cuban-born bassist Rudy Sarzo. With the arrival of guitarist Carlos Cavazo in 1982, they reverted to the Quiet Riot moniker and signed with independent Pasha Records, for whom they recorded 1983's Metal Health. Pushed by a raucous rendition of the old Slade chestnut "Cum on Feel the Noize," the album stormed up the U.S. charts, quickly reaching the number one spot and going platinum five times over in the process. Their unexpected success shocked everyone, not least of which the band themselves, who found it hard to cope with their instant stardom and the pitfalls that came with it. ..
