Kevin Du Brow Found Dead in His Vegas Home

who?

Kevin Du Brow from Quiet Riot

who?


ok most of you may not know who he is but his band was easily as popular as ..umm ...Twisted Sister back in the day ..never really liked their music but he's dead so ...

We're told one of Dubrow's neighbors found the singer Sunday around 5:20 PM. The Clark County Coroner confirms to TMZ that they are currently examining Dubrow's body to try to determine the cause of death.

Fellow band member Frankie Banali posted this message on his website: "I can't even find words to say. Please respect my privacy as I mourn the passing and honor the memory of my dearest friend, Kevin DuBrow."

Quiet Riot was the first metal band to top the Billboard charts and are perhaps best known for their cover of "Cum on Feel the Noize"

Oh, I recall that song. It was also on one of the radio stations in Vice City I think.

LOL at the volume knob.

which is ironic considering the singer's hairline:

Condition Critical was really good also, maybe even a stronger album altogether. Very sad news indeed. All of these people I grew up with are dying and yet its always tough to bear. ;(

I remember them. But they weren't that popular compared to Maiden, Sabbath etc. and my small group of greasy metalheads never really got into them - too 'soft', i think.

Ah well, another crispy fly on the window sill.
