There were many similarities between Quiet Riot and Van Halen, starting with the respective frontmen. Quiet Riot lead vocalist, Kevin DuBrow was just as cocky & brash as Van Halen’s David Lee Roth, and Randy Rhoads, the lead guitarist for Quiet Riot was constantly compared to the whiz kid namesake.. Eddie Van Halen. Both bands were snubbed by the record industry…For years neither had a deal. Although Van Halen was signed before them, landing a deal with Warner Brothers, Quiet Riot actually put out an album before Van Halen, but it was only released in Japan Randy Rhoads, Quiet Riot’s hot young guitarist, left to be the lead axeman for Ozzy Osbourne’s band, and a new crop of acts with more momentum began to take over the scene.
