According to a Facebook post, Dan Vapid and the Cheats are gearing up to release a split 7" with fugitives/pop-punks Masked Intruder. The former band writes:

Just had a listen to a mix sent from Atlas Studios for the upcoming split 7-inch with Masked Intruder and it sounds great! Going to be a really cool 7-inch.

Dan Vapid and the Cheats released their self-titled debut last year, as did Masked Intruder.

I cannot be the only one let down about how mediocre the Cheats album was after how much it got hyped.

Replace "the Cheats" by "Masked Intruder" and I`ll agree with you.

I would have to disagree with you on this one. I actually think The Dan Vapid And The Cheats album was amazing. It was my pick for album of the year. I will say the album starts off a little weak with the first 2-3 tracks, but once it picks up it the album is just perfect.
What I liked most about the album was that it did not turn out to just be another Methadones album with only Vapids name on it. I mean the Cheats are made up of all the Methadones members minus one if I can recall correctly. You ended up with all of Vapids styles of music over the years on the album. Got his Riverdales style,Methadones style,Mopes style,plus somethings new. I'm looking forward to this split, just hope it turns out better then the Jetty Boys split. I mean the cheats did only do cover songs, but was very lame covers in my eyes. Well this is on my can't wait list for 2013 just like The Muffs new album is. dam The Muffs have really been taking there time on releasing there next album

Wasn't Screeching Weasels "Suzzane is Getting Married" also a weeding gift type of thing also? And was Vapid a part of Screeching Weasel when that was recorded?
