Former
UFO members Phil Mogg (vocals) and Pete Way (drums) united in 1997 as Mogg-Way, hiring guitarist
George Bellas and drummer
Aynsley Dunbar to complete the hard rock band. There isn't much difference between Mogg-Way's debut album,
Edge of the World, and
UFO, apart from
Bellas' tendency to throw out
Yngwie Malmsteen licks. Even though he attempts to emulate
Michael Schenker,
Bellas doesn't really sit well with the group's stodgy, bluesy hard rock, especially since his technique outstrips the other members'. Despite the awkward chemistry, there are enough moments on
Edge of the World to make it of interest to hardcore
UFO fans. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
