Biography

It happens all the time. Popular bands break up, then years later they reunite and sadly wind up sounding little like the turbo-fueled entities they once were when they started. Then there are the rare exceptions – like Ratt.

As the story goes, Ratt helped pioneer Hollywood’s legendary Sunset Strip sound and scene. The band has returned sounding fired up and better than ever. Ratt’s first studio… Read more in Amazon's Ratt Store

Product Description

From Amazon.com

Along with Motley Crue, Quiet Riot and Twisted Sister, Ratt was one of the main players of the '80s glam metal movement. Although many of their songs lacked diversity and emotional poignancy, their guitarist Warren De Martini possessed the flash and technical ability to escalate the group above most of its peers. Out of the Cellar is by far the band's best record, but between the blazing solos and call-and-response choruses are many lackluster moments. What saves it from the bargain bin, however, is the quintessential metal anthem "Round and Round," one of the greatest three-or-so minutes in '80s rock. --Jon Wiederhorn

CD Description

First-pressing-only paper sleeve, comes in SHM-CD format. Reissue of the 1984 album by the LA metal band, and 2009 remastered. 10 tracks are included.

Format:Audio CD
During our family's annual summer vacation, my cousin had found this tape on the beach after a huge beach July 4th party back in 1984, someone had left it behind. After a trade involving a frisbee and two packs of firecrackers, I took the tape back to the condo. After shaking the sand from the cassette and listening to the whole album, I came to the conclusion that I had come out on the winning side of the deal. I've since bought this on CD and still enjoy listening to it.

If you ever wanted to know what 80's pop/glam metal was all about, look no further than this album. This album was a massive hit and a big step forward from their Ratt EP, putting Ratt at the top of the metal heap of the early 80's. Some people have said "Detonator" or "Dancing Undercover" are the band's best albums...I disagree. While those albums are good, this is definitely their best. No question about it.

With this album, Ratt crafted a distinctive look and sound all their own. From the opening of "Wanted Man" to the last cord of "Scene of the Crime," you have an excellent album. Top notch prodution, the songwriting, the blazing Warren DeMartini guitar solos, they're all here and then some.

The biggest hit from this album is "Round and Round," followed by "Wanted Man," a great opening song for the album. You also get a reworking of "Back For More" from the Ratt EP, this version being a huge improvement over the first.

The only downside...yep...the hair band lable. Do not let that sway you. These guys were on the music scene prior to the blow-dried-no-talent-wannabes that left nothing but empty Aqua Net cans on the music scene.

If you have their greatest hits album and want more, get this, you won't be sorry. Enjoy -- and thanks for reading!

4 star RATT 9 Nov 2007
Format:Audio CD
May not have my two favourite RATT songs on it as their on the Invasion album (you're in love & lay it down) but it does have "round & round" which is brilliant and many other songs which are well worth a listen. I would seriously buy this album and "invasion of your privacy" you wont be disappointed, i promise.

Classic Ratt album 30 Aug 2007
Format:Audio CD
This is a great listen. This is the album that put Ratt on the map with their hit Round and Round. There is a bit of filler on the album as you would expect with Ratt but not too much. One thing I don't understand is why the album is not available to buy new on amazon?
