## Description

WRAT 95.9 The Rat features cutting-edge, guitar-driven rock blended with the best rock of all time. It spins newer artists such as Five Finger Death Punch, Halestorm, and The Pretty Reckless, plus The Foo Fighters, Godsmack, and Disturbed, alongside Ozzy, Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and Queen.

The Rat is 'Your 9 In A Row Rock Station'—nine songs per hour with no commercial interruption. Based in New Jersey’s Monmouth and Ocean Counties, it preserves much of its original on-air staff since 1996, delivering rock with humor and local flavor.

## Review summary

Reviews praise WRAT’s music and personalities and the app’s portability beyond New Jersey, plus ease of use and loyal fan base. However, repeated playback problems (crashes, buffering, not starting), poor audio quality, and disruptive, repetitive ads are commonly reported. Users want a stable, high-quality streaming experience with fewer interruptions, especially for out-of-state listeners.

### Pros

- Works for listeners outside New Jersey (portable streaming with minimal delay).
- Easy-to-use app interface for streaming.
- Strong brand loyalty and nostalgia; WRAT is a go-to station for years.

### Cons

- Frequent playback issues including crashes, songs stopping, and not playing; overall reliability concerns.
- Intrusive, repetitive ads that disrupt listening (repeated commercials like the art school and Rocket Mortgage ads).
- Reliability issues persist after updates, with some reports that problems remain or return after updates.
