Synopsis

Album Description
Like Kahimi Karie or The Monkees, Death By Chocolate create playful pop that is deceptively simple and sweet. And, like you'd expect from English teenage girls, they sing songs about pop culture, candy and psychdelic drugs. Led by lead singer Angela Faye Tillett's runaway train of thought lyrics. DBC cover The Smoke's '60's mod classic 'My Friend Jack' which appeared on Jet Set's compilation CD. Standard jewel case. 2001 release.

CD Reviews

Death By Chocolate=Extreme Aural Happiness
Kevinduran | Indianapolis, Indiana USA | 08/03/2001
(5 out of 5 stars)

"What a bizarre notion of a cd! 17 songs- clocks in under 40 minutes- there's no time to get bored with this wonderful sweet concotion. Even better than a chocolate Krackel bar, and it won't rot your teeth if you eat too much. None of these songs are going to set the charts on fire, but that's the fun of the whole thing. Death By Chocolate's Angie Tillett speaks over the tracks- her vocals slightly remind me of a female Neil Tennant (of Pet Shop Boys). The music is a loungey/electronic-ish batch of creamy goodness. Put this on during a fabulous dinner party, and your friends are SURE to ask "What is this and where can I get it immediately?" Fave songs: "Daddy's Out Of Focus" (ain't that the truth), and "If You Want To Sing Out, Sing Out" (from the movie "Harold And Maude".) I don't know why anyone hasn't covered that song before, it seems like such an obvious choice for a cover song. If you like your music a little left of center (and I'm not talking about the hot, hot song by Suzanne Vega!) you will adore Death By Chocolate. And if you don't like it, it's probably because you prefer those rotten Twizzlers (that get all stuck in your teeth) over chocolate!"
Strangest Tea Party EVER
Kevinduran | 10/06/2003
(3 out of 5 stars)

"I am not exagerating when I say that this CD is a polite hallucination: A late-aternoon tea party with the slanted light heavy on the wooden floor, stirring up the dust mites around the heads of Sally Field, Dudley Moore, Peter Cook, Angela Lansbury, Cat Stevens, a particularly large white Teddy Bear and a girl in a red raincoat (isn't she hot?) and violet umbrella. When you drink the piping tea, your lexicon is reduced to the letters of the alaphabet, letters that trip off your tongue to the halting beat of a music-box tune (where is that music box?). There is nothing more to say....."
Little happy music

"I don't think I can add much more than what the other reviewers already said. If the world has got you down and you need to be taken away to a little happy place, this is the CD for you. Guaranteed to make you smile."
