Mogg wrote the majority of the band"s lyrics, with the music being written by Way, Michael Schenker, and later, Paul Raymond, but Schenker left to launch his solo career in 1979. Beginning in 1997, Mogg and Way, under the moniker, released a couple of albumsEdge of the World and Chocolate Box. With unidentified flying object on hiatus, Philosophy formed another side project
In late 2003, having regained the rights to the unidentified flying object name from Schenker, Mogg spoke with Pete Way and Paul Raymond, and ended up having a reunion tour which later brought the band back for good, with newly hired American guitarist Vinnie Moore.
The band then released several new albums: Showtime, You Are Here, The Monkey Puzzle, The Visitor, Seven Deadly and A Conspiracy of Stars. He is the uncle of Nigel Mogg, bassist with The Quireboys.
