Description: World Infestation by Greg Prato During the mid 80s, Ratt was one of the biggest hard rock/heavy metal bands in the United States. Turn on MTV, and it was seemingly only a matter of time until a Ratt video was aired. Visit your local newsstand, and you were sure to detect a Ratt band member on the cover of one of the leading rock mags. Take a gander at the album charts, and one of their platinum (or platinum plus) LPs would have been easy to spot. And lets not forget that from 1985 and throughout the remainder of the decade, they were a featured attraction on mammoth festivals, and also, rocked arenas on bills that featured Bon Jovi, Cheap Trick, Poison, Warrant, or Queensrÿche...with Ratt headlining over those bands. But, seemingly just as rapid as their rise to the top was the abrupt halt to their career in 1991 - with the onset of grunge and alt-rock replacing the party hearty metal stylings of the previous decade, in addition to internal strife within the band behind the scenes. World Infestation: The Ratt Story recounts the L.A. bands entire tale - from their beginnings as a band slugging it out on the Sunset Strip alongside such stiff competition as Mtley Cre and Metallica, to scoring hit singles ("Round and Round," "Lay It Down," "Youre in Love") and albums (Out of the Cellar, Invasion of Your Privacy, Dancing Undercover), creating their own unique look and sound (dubbed "fashion rock"), dealing with adversity, and how their music has reached a new audience in recent years. Comprised of quotes from interviews past and present (as well one of the last-ever interviews conducted with Ratts late guitarist, Robbin Crosby), World Infestation: The Ratt Story will certainly take you round and round...and then lay it down.
