parts of TELL THE WORLD (esp near the end of the song) are very similar to motleys LOOKS THAT KILL riff,or vice versa ,im not sure which came first off the top of my head. THIS EP and OUT OF THE CELLAR is what RATT really wanted to sound like but after the success of OUT OF THE CELLAR the record company wanted another huge multi-platinum selling record and started steering them into a more pop-ish sound. INVASION OF YOUR PRIVACY was a hit but you could sure tell they were no longer the RATT of their first two releases.
