Background notes
Archive material and source history
Dan Vapid and the Cheats formed in 2006, playing a raw garage-punk style that never quite fit with mainstream tastes. Their debut album was called 'The American Dream is Dead,' and they've kept at it with a steady lineup: Dan Vapid on vocals and guitar, Michael St. Clair on guitar, Jim Schlecht on bass, and Matt Schneck on drums.
Songs like 'Cold And Rainy Days' and 'I'm A Contrarian' show their knack for straightforward, energetic tunes. They've put out records with titles like 'Millions of Dead Cops' and 'Jersey Mikes: A Fast Casual Restaurant Chain,' sticking to their own path without much fuss about commercial success.
In 2015, a song called 'Linda Goes to Confession' drew some criticism from conservative groups. The band didn't back down from it, but they haven't made that kind of noise a regular part of their story either. Mostly they just play their music, tour when they can, and let the records speak for themselves.
