American heavy metal outfit Ratt has posted an update from the studio where they are recording their brand new album. It reads as follows:

"Bobby (Blotzer) kicked some serious ass on the drum tracks, they are done! Robert Crane (on the bass) is finishing up bass tracks as we write this tonight/today. The band is recording well into the early mornings.

"Warren (DeMartini) and Carlos (Cavazo) on guitars will start after the weekend shows.

"The band is tracking 12-14 new songs.

"Stephen (Pearcy) will start tracking lead vocals next week and back up vocals. The songs are just what you expect from Ratt and what the band wants you to hear!

"The producer (Elvis) is doing a great job and giving the band, "the big rock sound"!

"The studio is class AAA and right on the beach, a good vibe and some serious ass kickin Ratt n' roll is at hand here.

"More news next week..."

As a huge guitar fan, I'm curious to hear what Warren will do. Also, Ratt was one of the best hair bands right after Motley Crue, so who knows. Maybe this'll be a good slap of LA RockNroll

Ratt are not even heavy metal. They are nothing other than just the Backstreet Boys with loud guitars. If you are a pop band, don't call yourselves heavy metal
