Ratt is a glam metal band popular in the eighties. The Brothers Chaps are aware of their music, and have referenced it multiple times in the Homestar Runner body of work, especially their hit song "Round and Round".
Instances

- Disk 4 of 12 - Vampire's Castle — Strong Bad interprets the word "rat" in the torture chamber as referring to the band, and attempts to get singer Stephen Pearcy's autograph and to sing "Round and Round". At the end, he has a wine tasting with the group in a Powered by The Cheat illustration.
