Ratt singer Stephen Pearcy will enter the studio soon to begin work on his fourth solo album.

He says: "Expect the unexpected, It's time to pull out all the stops on this one, no fuckin' around. We've got more then enough material, and the material is ass-kicking! There's a couple songs that should have been on [Ratt's latest album' 'Infestation', that's for sure, [but] stubbornness and politics prevented that. But there's a reason for everything.

"I've been writing songs the last year to this day, you can never have enough music.

"I'm going to work the songs up at Fred Coury's (Cinderella) studio, and yes, hopefully he'll be drums on as much of the new music as I can get. My partner in grime, Erik Ferentinos, from my solo band, and I have written plenty of songs for the Battering Ramm project, so we're good to go. I'd also like to get a song with Carlos (Cavazo; Ratt guitarist, who co-wrote 'Eat Me Up Alive' and 'Best Of Me' with Pearcy for Ratt's 'Infestation') in there. It's all about the best solo music I have, and songs for Battering Ramm right now. We'll have some great players all over the new Cd! Hopes are to take the same players on tour next year. With new management, I've got a full plate at the moment for 2011, and wouldn't have it any other way at this time."
