RATT's Stephen Pearcy on Releasing 40th Anniversary Edition of the Band's Album, Out of the Cellar

Stephen Pearcy, the driving force behind emblematic glam metal rock band RATT, formed the band in 1982, bringing the genre to the LA music scene.
Pearcy’s raw vocals, unapologetic songwriting, and the band’s overt sex appeal led them to sign with Atlantic Records.
They exploded onto the national scene with the 1984 release of Out of the Cellar. It became one of many multi-platinum successes. RATT climbed the billboard charts with singles "Round and Round" and the title track, "Out of the Cellar," which reached no. 7.
On the heels of the album’s success, RATT headed out on a world tour, selling out stadiums and arenas worldwide and sharing a stage with acts such as Ozzy Osbourne, Iron Maiden, Mötley Crüe, Twisted Sister, and more.
To commemorate their debut album, the band recently released Out of the Cellar (40th Anniversary) with limited-edition versions, including a previously unreleased track, "Reach for the Sky," recorded during the original album sessions.
Pearcy sat down with us remotely to talk all about the anniversary release, his music career spanning more than four decades, writing a tell-all book, and more.
