About Us
Ratchet Blade Records was created when The Cramps bassist & punk rock veteran Chopper Franklin went all in with the notion that in an industry of crazed passion and intensity, it takes one equally crazed to capture that there lightning in that there bottle.
Whether it’s digging up the sacred bones of legends past, or charging forth with a newly-made monster, Ratchet Blade’s creative process in recording & releasing records matches the maniacal drive of the music that they release, because when beating the bush for the best in roots-based, punk rock n roll bands, you need the biggest stick…and the hardest whack. WE WILL FIND IT OR WE WILL CREATE IT.
