About
Riot V, formerly known as Riot, is an American heavy metal band formed in New York City in 1975 by guitarist Mark Reale. Achieving peak success and popularity during the early 1980s, the band has continued a long-running successful career. Riot started out as straightforward heavy metal, but since their 1988 release Thundersteel, their style has shifted towards power metal.
In 2013, surviving members of Riot reformed the band as Riot V, after the death of founder, guitarist, primary songwriter and leader Mark Reale. The group uses a baby seal face as a logo on its album covers.
