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 sux... i love cum on feel the noize....

:metal: girls rock your boys, and get wild wild wild....wild wild wild....

I hate to hear about just about any musician dying young.

Couldn't stand the hair band thing, but still.

Although I like 80's hard-rock, and "hair-metal" , I just couldn't get into their signature song, probably because it was a cover.

Still, it's a shame to see him go at such a young age; hopefully it wasn't substance abuse. :nono:

Dang, thats too bad. I liked their stuff in the 80s.

Thats the song I was tryin to think of! Thanks CHUD!

The late great Randy Rhoads played with Quiet Riot before joining Ozzy Osbourne
