Gym Class Heroes MP3

From LoveToKnow Music

Gym Class Heroes MP3s provide a unique sound from an up-and-coming young band.

The Band

The band features Travis McCoy on vocals, Disashi Lumumba-Kasongo on guitar, Eric Roberts on bass, and Matt McGinley on drums. Although they're generally labeled a hip hop band, they also evoke thoughts of indie rock with their backing instrumentals, making them more at home on The Warped Tour than with Jay-Z. True to their hip hop roots, Gym Class Heroes songs often feature an infectious beat you can dance to, and they frequently include a touch of humor in both the lyrics and their music videos.

The Fallout Boy Connection

While the band was formed in 1997, it wasn't until Gym Class Heroes caught the attention of band-of-the-moment Fallout Boy that they became widely recognized. They signed with Fallout Boy guitarist Pete Wentz's label, Decaydance Records, and eventually joined them on tour. Fallout Boy lead singer Patrick Stump is featured prominently in Gym Class Heroes' hit single "Cupid's Chokehold", singing the Supertramp hook, and band members have appeared in Gym Class Heroes videos.

Available Tracks

Some of Gym Class Heroes most popular songs include "Cupid's Chokehold", "The Queen and I", and "Clothes Off!!" McCoy was also featured on "Bring It (Snakes on a Plane)" from the Snakes on a Plane soundtrack. However, there are many more songs fans of the band can download, spanning both their independent and major label careers.
