RATT, Hollywood's Sunset Strip sound and scene legends that bring back memories of a time when metal ruled the earth and real musicians wore eyeliner like a badge of honor, released video for the song ‘Eat Me Up Alive’, from their back in April 2010-released album ‘Infestation’. ‘Infestation’ was released when most fans and disapprovers alike had given the band up as a hopeless cause; after 11 years of absence from the music world and 8 years after the tragic death of founding guitarist Robbin Crosby. Original members Stephen Pearcy, Warren DeMartini and Bobby Blotzer recruited former QUIET RIOT guitarist Carlos Cavazo and signed a new deal with Roadrunner Records. Bravewords awarded the album with 9 out of 10 and accompanied it with words: “If you’re looking for RATT to write about corporate greed or global warming then this album is not for you. But if you’re looking for sizzling guitars, a driving rhythm section, frivolous (but fun) lyrics and sneering vocals (that only Stephen Pearcy can deliver) than you’ve come to the right place. With this album, RATT have not gambled on trying to figure out what’s “cool” in 2010, but instead have placed all their bets on party rock anthems with loud guitars. Ah, welcome to 1987! You’ll be glad you came.” In Japan, the album charted at number 5 on best-selling albums chart and in the USA, the album debuted at number 30 on Billboard 200 and sold over 13,000 copies in the first week of release.
