I am surprised by so many calls for heavier-metal bands. Who knew that prewar vintage and Slayer went together!

Sorry to take this thread down a music path, but the OP question is very non-specific. I could have said

M&Ms
Kit Kat
Twix
Milky Way (dark)
Nestle crunch
Raisinettes
Special Dark
Caramelo
Junior mints
You poor Americans are missing out on the best chocolate bars

Coffee Crisp
Wunderbar
Aero
Mr. Big
Caramilk
Crunchie
Crispy Crunch
Big Turk
Smarties
