Frankford Guitar Heart Box of Chocolates

The box of chocolates. One of the key symbols of romance. This contraption of cardboard and processed cacao has historically been intertwined with all that is Valentines Day and love. How many cartoons (especially cartoons), TV shows and movies has this item been shown in some comical way to present the characters desire for affection of the person he wants? Too many to count.

While we can go on and on about boxed chocolates, we are seeking a higher representation for the Steel-Clad Warriors who desire something on our level to express our love the only way we can, and so far, no such item has been available... until today.

Today's blog post is quite possibly the apex example of Metal Love, and it is Frankford's Guitar Heart Box of Chocolates.

Mello Smello 3D Skull Guitar Valentines Day Cards

Valentines Day Cards. Something Metal Legions have seen plenty of times (but rarely received). Why we don't bother with these is pretty simple, they are not Metal.

While the concept of giving a card with a heart on it is something foreign to our people, the purpose behind it can never be underestimated, and that's to attract women.

We now have the perfect card that can accomplish this feat and still retain the Metallic elements needed to deliver our message.

Inkology Rock Star Guitar Pen

Pens. Since the dawn of time (more like when we all started 4th grade) have been a educational utensil that we needed to do our homework (or graffiti notebook/bathroom walls/desks/etc.). They have also allowed Metalheads to write lyrics (or notes to pass along to fellow headbangers (at least back in the 80's/90's, these days it is the smartphones that reigns supreme on the communication front)).

While pens are not the most Metal creation in the world (probably more under-appreciated than we allow), they have contributed to our musics lyrical creativity (more like making it happen).

It's one thing to doodle and write with a regular pen, but what if you had a pen that actually had the razors edge of METAL?

Axe Cool Metal

A Metal fans hygiene has always been a spectacle of debates amongst ourselves, teachers, principals, parents, friends, and even personal pets (fluffy can probably tell you more about your smell than you will ever know). From the touring musicians who don't have the luxury of a $300,000 tour bus, but rather a beat up '89 Dodge Van to the Camping Metal Festival attendees who have to resort to interesting methods of cleanliness (or lack thereof), hygiene has always been a challenge for the legions, until now.


Introducing Axe Cool Metal, a very awesome way to get cleaned up and smell great. Your girlfriend will thank me for this suggestion.

When you think of Heavy Metals colors, the color black comes into the picture instantly, since that color has been emblazoned on t-shirts (especially), guitars, jeans, patches, and just about anything and everything. Of course, there are the other colors that add to the Metal rainbow, for example, red, and...uh, yes, but
there is also silver, and this color typically is found on the jewelry of the mighty, like the skull rings, the pentagrams/iron crosses/etc. hanging from our necks. This color is about as Metal as it visually gets, and with Axe's choice of #999999 as it's palette to deck this body wash, it goes to show why this is very Metal, aside from the obvious name. Axe is no stranger to keeping people clean, and they have produced a line of products that have earned their success throughout the years, but what makes this product Metal is the fact they made it to look very Metal in terms of the chosen color tone.

The first item is the flagship of this product line, the body wash. Typically found in bottles of 12 oz, this is what makes or break the line from their offerings
.


Every once in a while, they might be generous and offer an extra 50% at no extra cost to encourage people of it's existence, and that's where you get a whopping 18 oz of the soapy goo for those extra long tours.


Next up is the body spray, and this is typically reserved for after the shower when you need that smell to keep going into the venue/clubs/dates/etc. You can also use this to cover your smoke tracks in case your mom comes in for her regular drug
inspections/cleaning your room.


The Detailer is Axe's response to the shower sponge. They made it look like a tool that came straight out of a mechanics toolbox.


The thick part is for use on the general parts of the body.


The small part is meant to scrub elbows/knee/heels/really tough stains, or in case you got some dry blood from elbowing an emo bastard child on the nose from last nights moshpit at the Slayer concert.


The best part of picking this up they included a free sample of Cool Metal body wash, in case the procurer has not tried it before. It's like a mini me version of the 12 oz bottle.


To show you the goods first hand (every pun intended), it definitely looks like the blood of a Metal God after it got cut battling Trolls.


Drinking from this will not grant you the powers of Metal, but will sure as hell give your stomach to something complain about for hours.


As a bonus to this post, I also found Axe has another (amongst the millions they offer) scent of their body spray but equally Metal called "Music", and as you soon see, they meant Metal music, with a Jackson Randy Rhoads flying in the can.



Final Verdict: Cool Metal definitely has a great smell to it that will please the ladies thus making it easier for you to spread Metal love all over the place. And the Music body spray scent will give you an excellent alternative scent. Definitely recommended.
