A metal band from the 80s. Call them hair if you like, but unlike Twisted Sister they never dressed in drag. Mostly died with the downfall of the hair metal scene, but they're a band that are still on the headbanger's radar. Or they were, until Kevin DuBrow checked out on a cocaine overdose in his Las Vegas house in 2007.
Known mainly for their mega-hit "Cum On Feel The Noize" and their #1 album 'Metal Health', Quiet Riot were much like Dokken - one of the most underrated bands out there. Kevin DuBrow's great vocals helped but his songwriting didn't; however Frankie Banali was one of the best drummers on the LA scene back then. Rudy Sarzo was a good bassist and Carlos Cavazo was also a great guitarist.
Headbangers and metalheads worldwide will however know them for songs like 'Metal Health' - the number one headbanger anthem - 'Slick Black Cadillac', 'Mama Weer All Crazee Now', 'Love's A Bitch' as well as 'Cum On Feel The Noize'. One less well known song was 'Danger Zone' which could shake a house down but didn't make it past the demo stage.
Their biggest achievement was Metal Health; not only did it hit number 1 in 1983 but it also made its mark as the first ever metal album to do so.
I'm a fan of Quiet Riot.

Quiet Riot were responsible for the classic headbanger's anthem - Metal Health.

Icelandic singer Björk's metaphor for a relationship in the song "It's Oh So Quiet" is a riot. "Björkian Riot" is a simple way to express this state of being in terms more accurate than saying "Oh I just started another big riot!"

1) A Russian feminist punk-rock collective based in Moscow.
2) A gathering in which feminists protest for equal rights and other politics.
3) When a woman is on her period (or is just a straight up bitch) and starts bagging on her man for nothing. She complains and nags and whines, without stopping.

Dude 1: My girlfriend is a bitch!
Dude 2: Have you done anything to upset her?
Dude 1: No! She just woke up this morning and started bitching about everything...
Dude 2: Oh, she's just having a Pussy Riot.

Feminist punk-rock movement based on DIY zines and clothes. Started by 'Bikini Kill'. Also dominated by the 'kinderwhore' look originally vomitted by Kat Bjelland and Courtney Love when they were still in 'Sugar Babylon' (also with Jennifer Finch of later L7) All three then started their own bands which are probably the most famous grrrl band after Bikini Kill (Hole, Babes in Toyland and L7). Teen girls would go to concerts with words like "slut" or "rape" scrawled over their bodies on lipstick.
"If you treat a girl like a dog, she is going to piss on you"
A quote from Courtney Love, original Riot Grrrl.
Fuck you, Courtney haters.
Grow up and get over the Kurt thing.
