Video For New Ratt Song ‘Best Of Me’
Infestation
Rock Veterans RATT have been in the studio and the result is a new album titled ‘Infestation‘ due out April 20, 2010. This is the bands first studio album in 10 years and the first single from the record ‘Best Of Me‘ can be heard below.
The current lineup for the band is:
Stephen Pearcy – Vocals
Warren DeMartini – Guitar
Carlos Cavazo – Guitar
Robbie Crane – Bass
Bobby Blotzer – Drums
RATT vocalist Stephen Pearcy recently told AOL’s Noisecreep what the song ‘Best Of Me’ is about,
“You always think the grass is greener on the other side, but in fact it isn’t. So you’re letting someone know ‘you’re the best thing I got, but I had to go fuck around to figure it out.’ It’s one of those you-don’t-know-what-you-got-’till-it’s-gone kind of things. With me, I go through this shit every day. I’m married one day, then I’m not, but I am.”
Pearcy says ‘Infestation’ is a cross between 1984’s ‘Out Of The Cellar’ and 1985’s ‘Invasion Of Your Privacy’
“The best part was having pre-production in Virginia, and getting away from our families and our personal shit and the L.A. scene. While we were recording, we actually all lived in the same compound. It was great. It was the first time we had ever done that. It was almost like when we lived in a one bedroom apartment we called Ratt Mansion West back in the old days.”
Newest member of the band guitaristCarlos Cavazo (formerly of Quiet Riot) talked about recording the album with his new band,
“Playing together was just like being old friends hanging out,” Cavazo said. “Doing the record was fun and very easy. It was one of the easiest records I’ve recorded in my life. No one was arguing or yelling at each other in the studio. It went really smooth.”
The band recently finished filming the video for ‘Best Of Me’ which can be viwed below.
