Riot Born In America

2015, Bursting out of New York City with three ground-breaking albums in quick succession ROCK CITY, NARITA and FIRE DOWN UNDER Riot quickly became one of the biggest cult metal bands in the world. Radio stations like KNAC in Los Angeles, KISS in San Antonio, TX and WLIR in New York City were at the forefront of the vision. Stunning performances in the UK at the first ever Castle Donington Festival with Rainbow and Scorpions, and Port Vale supporting Ozzy Osbourne the following year, and support slots with Sammy Hagar, Black Sabbath, AC/DC, Rush and Saxon to name and few cemented their reputation as the hottest ticket to see. Riot's sound initially started out as straightforward heavy metal, but since their 1988 release THUNDERSTEEL their musical direction has been more along the lines of power metal.
