 (5 Customer Reviews)
Phil Mogg & Pete Way's 1999 album Chocolate Box finds them returning to their UFO style of space metal, particularly on tracks like "Muddy's Gold," "Jerusalem," and "King of the City," which showcase Mogg's strong singing and songwriting skills. "Whip That Groove" and "Sparkling Wine" showcase the group's technical prowess with more cohesive results than on 1997's Edge of the World, making this album a more rewarding listen for UFO diehards and fans of metal in general. ~ Heather Phares

If you are at all a fan of UFO and the vocals of Phil Mogg, you have got to check out this CD. It rocks from the excellent first track through the end. I was so pleasantly suprised with the whole effort. It belongs right up there with the best albums from UFO.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Don't be fooled. This is a UFO album!
Not that that is a criticism. Despite Michael Schenker's legal efforts to take control of UFO, Pete Way and Phil Mogg continued producing great music and Chocolate Box is just an another example of their power together. Don't let the Mogg/Way moniker fool you. This is a UFO album in every sense and an essential part of the history of one of heavy metal's all time greats!

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No  A must for UFO fans...
Phil Mogg and Pete Way turn in another solid effort. The guitar playing of Jeff Kollman is somewhat "Schenker-esque", but not quite as busy as George Bellas on "Edge of the World". An overall good purchase.

Special Edition CD includes the full album, a CD of instrumental mixes of the album and a CD of six cover songs.
Dream Theater's tenth long-player is about as dense and challenging as any album in the band's discography and emphasizes not only the virtuoso members' stupefying musicianship, but also their most aggressive and thoroughly metallic songwriting tendencies. The sixteen-minute opener "A Nightmare to Remember" quickly establishes this agenda via frequently thrash-paced staccato riffing, some of John Petrucci's most blistering guitar solos ever, and the return of drummer Mike Portnoy's syncopated growls, which provide contrast for singer James LaBrie's soaring melodic elegance. "The Count of Tuscany" is a heady prog-metal magnum opus brimming with more ideas, notes, and time changes over 19 minutes than most bands bother ...

Chocolate Box CD music
$10.45
While many hard-core Black Sabbath fans consider 1975's SABOTAGE to be the band's most underrated album, it can also be pointed to as the beginning of the end for the original Osbourne-Iommi-Butler-Ward line-up. Osbourne was starting to feel disillusioned with the group, and the seeds for his highly successful solo career in the '80s were being planted. That said, SABOTAGE was the last Sabbath album to truly contain all of the components that made the quartet one the most popular heavy metal bands of all-time, before it pursued less focused musical detours.
The album's most surprising cut is undoubtedly the tripped-out psychedelic rocker "Am I Going Insane (Radio)," which would be included a year later on Sabbath's greatest-hits collection, WE SOLD OUR SOUL FOR ROCK N' ROLL. Other standouts include the crushing album opener, "Hole in the Sky," as well as the ultra-stimulated rager "Symptom of the Universe," which would be used later as an opener for Ozzy Osbourne's 1982 solo live album of Sabbath nuggets, SPEAK OF THE DEVIL. While those just discovering ...

| | Negative Reaction Under The Ancient Penalty CD (2006)
Chocolate Box music CDs
$8.09
Despite its prevalence throughout the Southeastern states, and particularly in the New Orleans area (hence its becoming described as the "NOLA sound"), sludge/doom metal never really took hold across the rest of America; meaning that a sludge metal band like New York's Negative Reaction remains a local treasure, at best -- an isolated and misunderstood anomaly doomed (forgive the pun) to failure, at worst. Under the Ancient Penalty is the trio's fourth full-length studio album in a decade-plus career, and, whatever its eventual success rate, it sure makes a helluva statement for extremely crusty, torpid sludge in its most primal, uncompromising, and unforgiving state. Listening to band founder and ever-present leader Ken E. Bones lead his henchmen through foot-dragging, Eyehategod-inspired sludge-fests like "Lost," "Empty," and "Alone," it's impossible to decide which instrument conveys the greatest amount of pain: his tortured, high-pitched whine, or his molten magma de-tuned guitar chords -- both of which suggest a very unhappy individual, in any case. Give the guy credit for not mincing words or abusing metaphors when it comes to those ...
