 Kevin Dubrow was noted for his on-stage presence |
The cause of his death has yet to be established and a post-mortem and toxicology tests are being carried out.
Police said there were no suspicious circumstances, with no forced entry into his house.
The band's biggest hit was Cum on Feel the Noize, a cover of the Slade song which they are said to have grudgingly recorded in just one take.
Their 1983 release Metal Health was the first metal album to top the US charts.
Dubrow, who was renowned for his powerful, gravelly vocals, recorded his first solo album in 2004, while Quiet Riot's most recent studio album was released in 2006.
The band's drummer Frank Banali, wrote on his website: "I can't even find words to say."
"Please respect my privacy as I mourn the passing and honour the memory of my dearest friend Kevin Dubrow," he added.
