Review

Reflecting the same '60s hard rock and '70s punk of MC5 and the Clash, this effort features rare and previously unreleased tracks. The opening "Cheater" sounds like an impressionable Hives with a great amount of intensity and verve. A manic "I Don't Wanna Work" comes off in the vein of an early Radio Birdman. Packing an ample amount of punk guitar, the songs are hard-rockers but also will reduce the listener to singing along with each chorus. Both "Stepping Out" and "Addicts of Communication" are great tracks in the vein of Rancid. The best track of the half-dozen has to be "Dynamite," a song that starts off with an early British Invasion feeling, resembling The Rolling Stones performing "Everybody Needs Somebody to Love." Although ending with another brief nugget of punk rock, the group certainly is moving in the right direction. ~ Jason MacNeil, All Music Guide

Biography

Formed by singer, guitarist and former Washington DC resident Mark Phillips, Cheater was created for the sake of waking up their native Santa Monica, California. With their use of speed, three chord aggression and hook ridden breakdown, Ben Collete (bass) and Dennis McGivern (guitar) aided in the Cheater line-up before their debut EP Experience All The Hate came out in 1998. Following a deal with Theologian Records that same year, the band hitched temporary drummer Chris Webb (One Hit Wonder) to record the full-length Home Is Where The Heart Is, which was also released in 1998. Soon after its release, Jamie Harris eventually filled in on drums and permanently settled Cheater's line-up. ~ Mike DaRonco, All Music Guide
