4) a Psytrance duo from Argentina producing darkish sounds.
1)In 1979 Gyula Vikidál left the legendary band P.Mobil and entered Dinamit. A year after Sándor Bencsik "Samu" (lead guitars) and István Cserháty "Pityi" (Hammond organ) left P.Mobil as well and formed a new band named Pandora's Box after the title of a Procol Harum. The
other members were singer Varga Miklós, drummer István Szabó and bassist József Sáfár "Öcsi" who used to play in the band V'73.
Their first single was released in 1981 entitled Halálkatlan/A bolond. In 1982 they released their first album under the title P.Box with the tracks: Másnak szól, Egérszerenád, Éjféli szekér, Dödöle, Hölgyválasz, Szupergép, A levél, Nekem ne mondd, A bolond. That year they gave a big concert at Budapest Sport Arena together with the famous bands Edda and Karthago.
In 1983 Miklós Varga left the band to be the singer of a Swedish-Hungarian band called Safari. Meanwhile the band Dinamit broke up, so it was obvious to choose Vikidál Gyula as the new singer.
They soon released their second single which contains one of their biggest hit A zöld, a bíbor és a fekete written in honour of the great guitarist Radics Béla who tragically died in 1982.
In the August of 1983 the greatest Hungarian rock opera István A Király written by Szörényi Levente and Bródy János in which the two singers played the two main caracters, and gained great success with it.
Their next album entitled Kő kövön contains the following songs: Soha nem elég, Ingajárat, Maradj a vonalban, Fantomlány, Valami Rock and Roll, A zöld, a bíbor és a fekete, Engedj, Az ideges, Vágtass velem (Kő kövön), and the next year the band was invited to play together with the bands Iron Maiden and Motörhead in Budapest.
They released their third album Ómen in 1985, but with two new members, Zselencz "Zsöci" László on bass from Edda and Pálmai Zoltán who also played in the bands P.Mobil and Hobo Blues Band. Ómen contains the following songs: Ómen, Bukott angyal, Éjszakai Vágta, Szűz a máglyán, Árulók kapuja, Átok és ígéret, Pandora tánca, Névtelen hős.
Vikidál Gyula left the band to be an actor and play in musicals, and in 1987 Bencsik Sándor "Samu" died suddenly, the circumstances to his death are still misty.
After 13 years Cserháty István recalled the band in 2001 with new members singer Koroknai Árpád, guitarist Sándor József "Günter", bass player Ferenczy Tibor and drummer Bodó Tamás. The new album was released in 2002 entitled Reményre Ítélve wich contains the following tracks: Múlt és jelen, A szerelem ára, Fantomlány (az eredeti dal újrafeldolgozása), Nekem az éj, Legyek az első, Semmi nem lesz jobb, Álmodj!, Hódítás, Milyen legyen?, Óriás és törpék, Van -e még?, Várj még!, Az én filmem, Árnyék. They were invited to play together with Deep Purple and Europe in Hungary.
They also released a DVD filmed in 2001's Sziget Festival in Budapest, which contains 4 songs in English as bonus tracks.
On the 4th of August 2005 they released their last album Pangea, with the songs Veled múljon el, Csak az ég, Pangea, Ezer év, Láss az én szememmel, R'n'r az égig, Szél, Másik srác, Dőljön le a fal, Jégkorszak and Még egy perc.
Sadly soon after the release of their last album Cserháty István "Pityi" died on the 21st of August 2005. He had been suffering from cancer since the beginning of the year, he spent a long time in hospital and left it for some days only to record the Hammond parts on the new album.
After his death the band gave some concerts with Krisztián Szabó on keyboards, but could not cope with the lack of "Pityi" who used to be not only the keyborad player but the manager and boss of the band as well. They gave their last concert on the 11th of November 2006 in Budapest then closed Pandora's Box forever.

2) In 1989, Jim Steinman gathered a group of female singers and formed the one-album band Pandora's Box. Band members were Ellen Foley (who had already played Wendy in 1977's Neverland workshop production and sung with Meat Loaf in Bat Out of Hell), Holly Sherwood (former Fire Inc.), Elaine Caswell, Gina Taylor and Jim Steinman himself.
The album was released along with a video, directed by Ken Russell, for "It's All Coming Back to Me Now" (later covered as a hit by Céline Dion), but a planned tour was scrapped. The album was not released to the United States originally. Sales for the album were modest, though Steinman continues to be very proud of it. Many fans and critics consider it one of his best works. The track "Original Sin" was recycled and featured prominently in the musical show Tanz der Vampire. The album's final track "The Future Ain't What It Used to Be" was re-recorded for the MTV movie of Wuthering Heights starring Erika Christensen.
In 1994, singer Taylor Dayne covered a slightly reworked version of "Original Sin" on the soundtrack of the movie version of The Shadow. Meat Loaf also covered "Original Sin" on his 1996 album Welcome to the Neighborhood.

Pandora's Box Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't believe everything that I'm told
I've been around and I know the ropes
And I won't get fooled again
I don't believe in no fairy tales
I don't believe in the man in the moon
And no pot of gold or anything else
I got no illusions now, I guess I lost them long ago
You're not gonna get me with this, cause I already know
Baby there's no such thing
Baby it just ain't true
And there's no such thing as safe sex
When it comes to loving you
There's always the danger of losing control
And of breaking my heart and exposing my soul
There's just no protection from that look in your eyes
Or the touch of your hands when I break down and cry
There's always the risk of surrendering more
Than I ever intended to do
And there's no such thing as safe sex
When it comes to loving you
I don't believe in the boogie man
I don't believe in no pie in the sky
You can wish upon a star until the stars are gone
That doesn't mean it's really so
There's no such thing as a Santa Claus
There's no such thing as getting money for nothing
And no yellow brick road is gonna take you there
Wherever you've been trying to go
We'll never be as young as thisNo matter how we try, we grow
You're not such an innocent boyAnd I already know
Baby there's no such thing
Baby it just ain't true
And there's no such thing as safe sex
When it comes to loving you
There's always the danger of giving too much
Love is often a drug
Love is often a crutch
There's no guarantee I can handle it all
The higher the climb
The longer the fall
There's always the danger of losing control
And of breaking my heart and exposing my soul
There's just no protection from that look in your eyes
Or the touch of your hands when I break down and cry
There's always the risk of surrendering more
Than I ever intended to do
And there's no such thing as safe sex
When it comes to loving you
When it comes to loving you...
The lyrics to Pandora's Box's song Sex explore the idea that love and sex can never truly be completely safe. The singer is skeptical of fairy tales and other unrealistic notions, implying that they have experienced disappointment or pain in the past. They understand that love and sex are full of danger and risk, yet they cannot resist the powerful attraction they feel for their partner. The lyrics acknowledge the potential for heartbreak, loss of control, and exposure of vulnerability that comes with love and sex, and warns against believing in a false sense of safety.
The song also touches on the idea of growing older and losing one's innocence. The singer acknowledges that they are not as young as they once were and that their partner is not as innocent as they may seem. This adds another layer of complexity to their relationship, as they both understand the risks involved.
Overall, the lyrics to Sex are a sobering reflection on the realities of love and sex. While they may be full of pleasure and joy, they can also lead to heartache and pain. The singer is aware of this, but cannot help but give themselves over to the experience.
Line by Line Meaning
No one ever said I was a gullible girl
I am not easily fooled or naive
I don't believe everything that I'm told
I am skeptical of everything I hear
I've been around and I know the ropes
I have experience and know how to handle things
And I won't get fooled again
I will not be deceived again
I don't believe in no fairy tales
I do not believe in stories of magic and wonder
I don't believe in the man in the moon
I do not believe in fanciful myths
And no pot of gold or anything else
I do not believe in any unearned rewards
Is waiting at the rainbow's end
There are no easy or guaranteed rewards
I got no illusions now, I guess I lost them long ago
I am no longer naive or have unrealistic expectations
You're not gonna get me with this, cause I already know
I am not easily fooled because I am wise to your games
Baby there's no such thing
There are no guarantees or absolutes
Baby it just ain't true
What you are offering is simply not real
And there's no such thing as safe sex
There is no way to fully protect myself emotionally
When it comes to loving you
When it comes to having feelings for you
There's always the danger of losing control
I risk losing myself or being consumed by passion
And of breaking my heart and exposing my soul
I risk being vulnerable and getting hurt
There's just no protection from that look in your eyes
I cannot shield myself from your intense gaze or emotions
Or the touch of your hands when I break down and cry
I cannot escape your comforting, yet dangerous touch
There's always the risk of surrendering more
I risk giving up more than I intended or am comfortable with
Than I ever intended to do
More than what I thought I was capable of giving
I don't believe in the boogie man
I do not believe in scary, made-up monsters
I don't believe in no pie in the sky
I do not believe in unrealistic promises or dreams
You can wish upon a star until the stars are gone
You can hope and dream forever, but it may not come true
That doesn't mean it's really so
Just because we wish for something doesn't make it real
There's no such thing as a Santa Claus
The idea of a magical gift-giver is just a myth
There's no such thing as getting money for nothing
You can't get something for nothing in life
And no yellow brick road is gonna take you there
There is no easy way to achieve your goals
Wherever you've been trying to go
Wherever you are trying to reach or achieve
We'll never be as young as this
We will never be this young or carefree again
No matter how we try, we grow
No matter how hard we resist, we will change and mature
You're not such an innocent boy
You are not as naive or innocent as you seem
And I already know
I am aware and not deceived
There's always the danger of giving too much
I risk giving more than what is healthy or sustainable
Love is often a drug
Love can be addictive and all-consuming
Love is often a crutch
Love can be used to escape or avoid dealing with problems
There's no guarantee I can handle it all
There's no assurance that I can manage the intensity of love
The higher the climb
The more intense and difficult the journey
The longer the fall
The greater the risk of getting hurt or losing oneself
When it comes to loving you
When it comes to having feelings for you
