QR III (or Quiet Riot III) is the fifth studio album by American heavy metal band Quiet Riot. Released in July 1986, it departs from the heavy metal of the band's previous two albums for a more melodic glam metal and hard rock sound. There are also AOR elements and keyboards, courtesy of John Purdell.
