Free Music Notes for Out of the Cellar

Free Music Review: Great record, best of its era!
Hit: 5 Stars

Ratt's Out of the Cellar is a awesome record filled with great songs and performances by all of the band members. I consider this record to be stronger than Motley Crue's Shout at the Devil, which many consider to be the best record of that genre of music. When you consider that this was Ratt's first full length record, its all the more impressive. This record had a monster hit in Round and Round, but Wanted Man, Back for More and Lack of communications were just as good if not better. Those songs sound as great today and they did back then and have really stood the test of time. This record also had songs I'm Insane, You're in Trouble and Scene of the Crime which were very underated and have become fan favorites over the years. Juan , Robin, and Bobby made up a killer rythem section and Warren's leads are some of the best ever by a hard rock guitarist. Stephens singing and delivery was perfect for this time of music also.
This band also delivers these songs live and was not a studio band as these songs come alive in concert with a all new energy.
Great songs, great musicianship, and what a great job Beau Hill did in producing this record and getting a powerful rock sound.

Hit: 4 Stars

`Out of the Cellar' was promise fulfilled by Ratt as their EP had debuted a year before. With a much slicker (professional) production and pop-friendly chorus, the album achieved monster success and is generally acclaimed as one of the iconic records from the hair metal era. LA was fast becoming seen as the epicenter of this much maligned musical movement (critically) and Ratt had paid their dues as a club band who had made the drive from San Diego (where band leader and vocalist Stephen Pearcy originally hailed from) to become the new darlings of the Sunset Strip. "Round and Round" was one THE defining anthems of the `80's and is still requested and listened to quite a bit today when much of its ilk has been relegated to the critical scrap heap (the recent film "The Wrestler" pays tribute to it). `Out of the Cellar' was a very complete album and really the most consistent record the Ratt ever put out as the law of diminishing returns and lack of real staying power eventually caught up to them. Warren DeMartini also makes his ascendency as Ratt's main man and because of band co-founder Robbin Crosby's lesser talent and notorious partying this made it easier for DeMartini to flash his considerable talents as lead guitarist. "Back for More", "Wanted Man", "Lack of Communication" and the Juan Croucier penned "She Wants Money" are all album highlights. Croucier would soon feel squeezed by Pearcy's dominance but here it was all smiles and good times. Pearcy brought my personal favorite "In Your Direction" from his San Diego Mickey Ratt days. Vey few duds here but as I said before, Ratt would never put out another record as consistently entertaining as `Out of the Cellar'
