Ratt’s brand of hook-driven melodic rock helped shape the legendary LA metal scene. The band boasts a deep catalogue of hits including “Round and Round,” “Lay It Down,” “You’re In Love” and “Lack of Communication” and have sold millions of albums worldwide. With 1984’s mega-platinum debut, ‘Out of the Cellar’ celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, the guys are looking forward to starting a brand new chapter with brand new music to complement the impressive legacy they have established over the last two-plus decades.

“This deal is a great opportunity for us to get our new music to Ratt fans worldwide,” says frontman Stephen Pearcy. “We are super excited about the new material!”
