Quiet Riot's "Guilty pleasures" from 2001, is an album that easily could have been released 15 years earlier according to the sound and musical approach. Quiet Riot don't seem to be bothered with having their feet deep in the past while they deliver party metal in the same vein as they did on "Condition critical". In the opening "Vicious circle" they use the same vocal approach (on the verse) like they did on "Sign of the times", and their "Rock the house" is clearly inspired by Quiet Riot's old musical inspiration Slade - just listen to the pre-chorus and you can easily hear echoes of "[Come] on feel the noise". The outstanding song on this rather even album is "Shadow of love" with its melodic and catchy chorus. Then you get a couple of (power) ballads in between the faster tracks, and the whole effort ends with a acoustic tune - "Fly too high". You won't find anything new or modern on this release - it's just a solid QR album in the old tradition. If you (like me) lost track of Quiet Riot and haven't heard anything from them in years, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised when you put on "Guilty pleasures" and turn the volume up real loud.
