From the pounding opening track 'Free' this new Quiet Riot CD captures the bands classic sound but with modern overtones throughout.

Original members, vocalist Kevin DuBrow and drummer Frankie Banali, are joined by bassist Tony Franklin (Ex- Blue Murder) and session guitarist Neil Citron, and have produced an album worthy of the Quiet Riot name.

Outstanding tracks include 'Blind Faith', the anthemic 'South Of Heaven', the slow building 'Beggars and Thieves' and 'Don't Think'.
