Condition Critical is the fourth studio album by Quiet Riot. The album was released in 1984. It was also given an infamous two-word review in Rolling Stone magazine: "Condition terminal."[2]
This album was not nearly as successful as its predecessor in either fan reaction or sales, although it did sell over 3 million copies, peaking at #15 on the U.S. Billboard album chart. Like the band's previous album, it also featured a Slade cover song as the second track.

The track "Stomp Your Hands, Clap Your Feet" was originally the American title to Slade's 1974 album Old New Borrowed and Blue.
