体操课英雄乐队来自纽约的Gym Class Heroes，起源于1997年负责说及唱的Travis “Schleprok” McCoy与鼓手Matt McGinley在高中一同上体育课而结识为好友，两位以嘻哈曲式跟几位乐手开始合作，直到2001年遇上吉他手Disashi Lumumba-Kasongo和贝斯手Eric Roberts后，Gym Class Heroes四人团体便告成型。
Gym Class Heroes在2006年发行的As Cruel as School Children是一张绝对欢乐满分的专辑，一组很难让你介定乐种区块的乐团，他们的青春活力感染每位聆听者的心，他们很嘻哈/饶舌，却没有黑帮硬派声韵，以摇滚编制加入大量真实乐器配衬；他们很摇滚，却不如Nu-Metal般狂哮撞击，以轻松自在的放克或庞克律动取代，有趣的团名，好听的曲调，Gym Class Heroes企图吸引广泛音乐各界的朋友注意力。
请来S*A*M(Method Man、Baha Man、Earth、Wind ＆ Fire)以及Sluggo共通监制的『As Cruel As School Children』，将调和变化多端的音乐元素，为GCH增添趣味的听觉引诱，越卖越旺地挺入全美Top49。开场首波攻势的「The Queen And I」，吉他快意拨弦不断来回穿绕整曲，时而饶舌时而演唱的效果，都恰如其分掌控声音表情在曲子各桥段中；加入更为顺畅动听声线的「Shoot Down The Stars」，放克嘻哈跳跃式节拍仍不时渗进刮盘声效，摇滚/嘻哈各半的分配，相信均能引起拥护这两派乐种之粉丝；已经攻入全美流行榜Top5、下载榜亚军的「Cupid’s Chokehold」以及激起舞动情绪的「Clothes Off」，皆请来Fall Out Boys主唱Patrick Stump欢乐助唱；新生代Emo-Punk团The Academy Is…主唱William Beckett，在排行实力作「7 Weeks」中亦献出平实动人嗓音；曾获葛莱美青睐的饶舌团体Arrested Development之创作首脑Speech，在「Biters Block」里头再展饶舌长才；复古柔软的中版抒情小品「On My Own Time」，是专辑中极为出色的推荐佳作。GCH的纯真可爱以及天马行空的音乐想像，架构出轻松无压的音符配置，会让你上瘾般想一听再听。
发现Gym Class Heroes是在他们单曲Cupid's Chokehold上榜之后，而这首歌曲还是团体在2005年发行的专辑The Papercut Chronicles之中的一首歌曲，四人团体Gym Class Heroes是来自美国纽约州的Geneva，我还是没有搞清楚为什么这首两年前乐队的知名作品才在今天开始悄然走红，反而去年发行的专辑As Cruel as School Children没有什么激起大的反应，如果把Gym Class Heroes说成是一支金说团体，那有有些偏差，他们实际上是用现场乐器来代替说唱中经常使用的合成器，这一点和Linkin Park比较重的摇滚歌曲还是有些不同的，他们的旋律在没有强烈电子的伴奏下显得acoustic一点，吉他在乐队中就充当一个合成器，如果需要loop，吉他就会弹出那一段不变，却是歌曲灵魂的riff，而他们的音乐和power pop也差不了多远，也许不是全黑阵容会让人觉得他们的说唱有些虚伪，这样别样的说唱其实也是乐队所希望的，Cupid's Chokehold之所以成功的一大原因也许是歌曲的chorus部分是由在两年前才不够走红的Fall Out Boy的主唱Patrick Stump来演唱的，自然他catchy的chorus和轻松的节奏也是歌曲成功的前提。
