Quiet Riot was founded in 1973 by guitarist Randy Rhoads and bassist Kelly Garni under the original name Mach 1, before changing the name to Little Women and finally Quiet Riot in May 1975. The band's name was inspired by a conversation with Rick Parfitt of the British band Status Quo, in which Parfitt said he'd like to name a band "Quite Right", and his thick English accent made it sound like he was saying "Quiet Riot".

Lyrics:
Well I'm an axegrinder piledriver
Mother says that I never never mind her
Got no brains I'm insane
Teacher says that I'm one big pain
I'm like a laser 6-streamin' razor
I got a mouth like an alligator
I want it louder
More power
I'm gonna rock ya till it strikes the hour
Bang your head! metal health'll drive you mad
Band your head! metal health'll drive you mad
Well I'm frusrated
Outdated I really want to be over-rated
I'm a finder and I'm a keeper
I'm not a loser and I ain't no weeper
I got the boys to make the noise
Won't ever let up
Hope it annoys you
Join the pack
Fill the crack
Well now you're here
There's no way back
Bang your head! metal health'll drive you mad
Bang your head! metal health'll drive you mad
Metal health'll cure your crazy
Metal health'll cure your mad
Metal health is what we all need
It's what you have to have
Bang your head
Wake the dead
We're all metal mad
It's all you have
So bang your head
And raise the dead
Oh yeah!
Metal health
It's not too bad
Bad bad
Oh get your straight-jackets on tonight oh
Bang your head! metal health'll drive you mad
The bad boys are gonna set you right rock on rock on rock on
Bang your head! metal health'll drive you mad
Bang your head!

Say what you will about these guys, but before you completely dismiss them, watch the bass player at one point.. I tell ya, I think THAT was really neat the way he played that... QR was great the 2 times I saw them.. first time was in 86 in Hawaii, which I didn't know at the time, but Kevin was kicked out of the band after that show, and then again in 93? the first time he was back since being kicked.. both times they rocked.. although the second time it was in a CLUB in Bay City MI.. LOL small place..8 years ago
