"Metal Health", sometimes called "Bang Your Head", is a song by American metal band Quiet Riot on their breakthrough album of the same name. The song is their best known hit and received constant MTV music video and radio play. It was ranked #35 on VH1's Top 40 Metal Songs. "Metal Health" is known for its drum rattle at the beginning of the song as well as the famed chorus:
- Bang your head! Metal Health'll drive you mad
The song talks about the headbanging subculture. Because of this, the song bought the attention of many heavy metal fans upon its release. The single contained both the studio-recorded version and a live version.
The song is featured in the tracklist of radio V-Rock in the game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, which takes place in 1984, two years prior to Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.
