Hopefully he'll come our way again soon with Charlotte. The album is terrific and you should definitely give it a listen.

Ratt's first new album in almost 11 years has touched off waves of excitement as it "infests" the hard rock world. I first met Warren down at Hampton Beach Casino Ballroom where the band was about to wrap the tour with Extreme in August '09. That interview went great as did this one. Infestation is an amazing record that gets better every time I hear it. 5 stars,a 10 out of 10,etc..Hope you dig this interview and, as always,hit me up with your thoughts at jim@turnitupshow.com.
