Sweet Cheater

Already in 1983 SWEET CHEATER was founded in the northern German city of Bremen. The band was influenced by current trends like Metal Church, Metallica, Helstar or Fates Warning as well as by the typical old heroes (Thin Lizzy, Led Zeppelin, etc.). After a demo (partly heard on this CD) the new label called Flametrader (Demon, Savage Grace, Cancer, Siren, etc.) beckoned with a record deal and the debut „Immortal Instant“ was recorded at HGM Studios (Black Fate, Siren, Dissidenten, etc.). The result was not only well received by the fans, but also earned very good reviews - which was already something special for a German band not dedicated to thrash in 1986! Unfortunately, the line-up fell apart before they got back together, albeit under the new name Secrecy. After renewed line-up changes, they finally managed to release an acclaimed album („Art In Motion)“) via Noise Records in 1990, followed by „Raging Romance“ Noise Rec., 1991).
