FIVE GUYS FROM BOSTON. THEY\'VE KNOWN EACH OTHER FOR YEARS. THEY GET THIS IDEA TO START A BAND BACK IN 1996. YEARS GO BY, THE LINE UP CHANGES, BUT THE MISSION REMAINS THE SAME: CREATE THE MUSIC THEY WANT TO HEAR AND LEAVE THE POSTURING AND FASHION SHOW POLITICS OF NEW MUSIC BEHIND. TRYING TO KEEP THE SPIRIT OF OLD STYLE HARDCORE ALIVE AMID A WORLD THAT IS SATURATED WITH NEW SCHOOL METAL BANDS AND DROP-TUNED BREAKDOWNS, THEY HAVE PERSEVERED AND KEPT THEIR FORWARD MOTION ALIVE. NOT AFRAID TO MAKE FUN OF THEMSELVES, (AND EVERYONE ELSE), CHEECH HAVE ENCOUNTERED A FAN BASE OF LIKE-MINDED INDIVIDUALS: PEOPLE WHO ARE JUST SICK AND TIRED OF THE SAME OLD FORMULAIC CRAP.

COMBINING ELEMENTS OF PRE AND POST \'87 HARDCORE, THE ALBUM REFLECTS A FEEL-GOOD, PARTY ATMOSPHERE COMBINED WITH THE HOSTILITY OF A GOOD, OLD - FASHIONED HOCKEY FIGHT. AFTER A FEW MONTHS WITH A NEW BASS PLAYER ON BOARD (A CONSCRIPT WHO HUNG OUT DURING THE EARLY DAYS OF CHEECH), OUR HEROES DECIDED TO START RECORDING THE FOLLOW UP TO THEIR FIRST OPUS.
DURING THE EXCRUCIATINGLY COLD WINTER OF 2004, THE BOYS STARTED PRE-PRODUCTION SESSIONS FOR THEIR SECOND RELEASE, ENTITLED \"KEEP YOUR PIMP HAND STRONG\"(FEATURING GUEST STARS JIMMY GESTAPO FROM MURPHY\'S LAW AND OTHERS). AFTER MINOR NEGOTIATIONS, THE BOYS SECURED A DISTRO DEAL WITH NGS RECORDS OUT OF CHICAGO. THE ALBUM WAS PRODUCED BY THE BAND IN THE SUB-ZERO TEMPERATURE STUDIO THAT THEY CALLED HOME IN EVERETT MASS (NORTH OF BOSTON). THE ALBUM WAS RELEASED PUBLICLY IN THE SUMMER OF 2004, TO MUCH CRITICAL ACCLAIM.
THE BAND IS CONTINUING TO TRY TO CHALLENGE THEMSELVES (AND THEIR FANS) BY UTILIZING NEW WRITING STYLES, NEW TOPICS AND DRINKING MORE BEER THAN EVER BEFORE. THEY ARE CURRENTLY DOING THE DEMO TRACKS FOR THEIR NEXT RELEASE AND ARE MOVING ALONG WITH THE PACE OF A LOCOMOTIVE
