Condition Critical

Quiet Riot

High-octane arena metal defined by raspy vocals and stomp-along rhythms. A snapshot of the 1984 Sunset Strip sound at its most commercial and defiant.

Find on Amazon

The ultimate 1984 time capsule for when you just want to shout at the ceiling and drive too fast.

A high-energy, defiant celebration of rock culture with a gritty, blue-collar edge.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The massive, floor-shaking drum intro of track 4 that demands a rhythmic response from the listener.
Kevin DuBrow's glass-shattering high note that kicks off the chorus of track 10.
The synchronized gang-vocal chant during the bridge of track 8 that feels designed for ten thousand people.
