Press “Here's a look at some of the best self-released music from recent months While we're in head-banging mode, I have to give a shout-out to this impressive three-song demo by a theatrical, goth-inflicted speed-metal quartet that comes complete with its own motto ("Chokehold -- The Experience Will Leave You Breathless!") ” JIM DeROGATIS POP MUSIC CRITIC - Chicago Sun Times “ the band does have a few things to offer on its three-song demo. Its mixture of power and goth metal comes across best on “Nemesis”, a track driven by guitarist Joel West’s solid riffs. The production is crisp, helping accentuate Chokehold’s tight delivery. Vocalist CJ has certainly assumed the role of metal goddess, and her fiery presence adds personality, ” Trevor Fisher Around Hear - Illinois Entertainer “on Evil Circus” and “Wake Up” [Nemesis], versatile vocalist CJ gives it all she’s got, setting the pace for the pummeling and tight-as-hell musicianship going on behind her.” Music Connection Magazine "Are you classically trained? You're a very good singer!" [Goddess of Power Metal] Eric Clinger - Hollywood Records "I liked them. You're songs are good!" Chelsea Norton - Epic Records “You guys have a really good band!” Christian Treiber - Dreamscape Records “I am DJ of a show of radio in Brazil. I played on the air your music and my listeners wrote and they called asking for more of your musicOur listeners loved your music.” - DJ. Markus Marques - Brazil “You guys really rock!!!” - Bruce Corsone - Roaring Records "This is Crazy Mary, a fan of yours since the US Beer Company and North Beach shows." - Crazy Mary Unofficial spokesperson of Mancow’s Morning Madhouse “This is a very unusual band that I think would be a nice band to see live.” - Robert Beneux Future Impact Magazine “Chokehold definitely looks like an interesting band, and sounds like one too. It's not totally my type of music that I usually listen to, but I can tell that they have great potential, and they'll make it big with the right fan base. I must say that it's mighty cool they're from Chicago though. Good luck! “- Angie Disko Future Impact Magazine “You guys f@#$%!!! rock!!” - Dan Stone - Blizzard Promotions Song Reviews Loggins Promotion Commercial Mainstream Radio Test Results (Harbor City, CA): As you can see from the results below, we have received some wonderful response from radio on your music.

Jadon, Gulf Port, Mississippi - Love this balls thru the walls intro! I was not expecting to hear the female vocals! Gives the song a surprising twist as I was definitely not expecting it.
