Hard Rock
Hard rock or heavy rock is a loosely defined subgenre of rock music typified by aggressive vocals and distorted electric guitars. Hard rock began in the mid-1960s with the garage, psychedelic and blues rock movements. Some of the earliest hard rock music was produced by the Kinks, the Who, The Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Cream, Vanilla Fudge, and the Jimi Hendrix Experience. In the late 1960s, bands such as Blue Cheer, the Jeff Beck Group, Iron Butterfly, Led Zeppelin, Golden Earring, Steppenwolf and Deep Purple also produced hard rock. The genre developed into a major form of popular music in the 1970s, with the Who, Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple being joined by Queen, AC/DC, Aerosmith, Kiss, and Van Halen. During the 1980s, some hard rock bands moved away from their hard rock roots and more towards pop rock.V. Bogdanov, C. Woodstra and S. T.

Clowns Lounge
Clowns Lounge is the thirteenth studio album by Enuff Z'Nuff. It is mainly an archival release that features previously unreleased demo songs of their recording sessions from 1988-1989 in Wisconsin, back when the band was creating their first self-titled release on ATCO Records. The title of the album is a reference to a strip club they frequented in-between sessions. The songs mostly feature singer Donnie Vie and bassist Chip Z'Nuff, along with guitarist Derek Frigo and drummer Vikki Foxx. One newly recorded song, "Dog On a Bone," has bassist Z'Nuff on lead vocals but with no involvement from Vie. Another song, "The Devil Of Shakespeare," was originally recorded around 2004, co-written by author Billy McCarthy for his debut book of the same name. That track features McCarthy on drums, the late Jani Lane of Warrant on vocals, along with James Young of Styx on lead guitar. On October 12, the first promotional song "Rockabye Dreamland" officially appeared on Spotify and other str ...

Dissonance (album)
''Dissonance'' is the 12th studio album from the band Enuff Z'Nuff. The album reunites singers/songwriters Donnie Vie and Chip Z'Nuff after Vie's hiatus from the band of several years. Original sessions for the album started in 2006, prompted by the band's possible inclusion in a pilot episode for the VH-1 show "Bands on the Run." Songs from these initial sessions, bootlegged as ''Lost In Vegas'' by fans, would be later reworked for the official release of ''Dissonance''. Several songs on the CD feature past Ozzy Osbourne/Badlands guitarist Jake E. Lee. A limited edition of ''Dissonance'' was first sold in the U.S. at the Rocklahoma Rocklahoma (also known as Rock Fever Presents Rocklahoma or Rock Fever) is an annual American three-day rock festival held in Pryor, Oklahoma.

? (Enuff Z'nuff Album)
Enuff Z'nuff's 11th studio album, simply titled ''?'', is an odds and ends collection of previously unreleased studio material recorded throughout the band's career. Although a few new tracks were recorded specifically for the album, the remainder of the songs were originally recorded during the sessions of their albums '' Animals With Human Intelligence'' and ''Paraphernalia''. The ''?'' album was released first in Japan, where it peaked at #177. A U.S. release followed soon after in October on Perris Records, as well as a European release on Frontiers Records in early 2005. The band did tour during the time of release (without lead singer Donnie Vie), but songs from this album were not included in their live shows. Bassist Chip Z'Nuff did make a promotional appearance on the Howard Stern radio show, where the lead track "Gorgeous" was played on-air.

Welcome To Blue Island
''Welcome to Blue Island'' was the final recording of new studio material by Enuff Z'nuff before lead singer Donnie Vie left the group in 2002. As a result, Vie did not tour to support the album. However, the band continued playing shows at this time with lead guitarist Monaco taking over vocal duties. As was common for the band, ''Welcome To Blue Island'' was released first in Japan, where it charted at No. 90. The U.S. version of the album with several bonus tracks came in June 2003 on the Perris Records label, where it became the label's top seller of 2004.Perris Records catalog description for Welcome To Blue Island.

10 (Enuff Z'nuff Album)
10 is the 9th studio album, and 10th overall release by the Rock band Enuff Z'Nuff. By fans, it is sometimes seen as the poppier counterpart to their harder sounding ''Paraphernalia'' record, as both albums were recorded and released during a similar time frame. The album cover art for '10' is a direct reference to the band's debut album, released a decade earlier. While the original U.S. edition of the album included a video for the single "There Goes My Heart" in QuickTime format, '10' was released first in Japan through the Pony Canyon label. The band also toured Japan in 2000 in support of the CD, which peaked at #60 on the Japanese music charts. The song "There Goes My Heart" was later featured in a trailer for the 2008 film ''The Promotion''.

Paraphernalia (album)
This record is one of a string of mid-career recordings by Chicago natives Enuff Z'Nuff. ''Paraphernalia'' is arguably heavier in nature than many of their previous recordings. This album is also notable for its guest appearances from other famous Chicago area musicians, including Rick Nielsen of Cheap Trick, James Young of Styx, and Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins, all featured on lead guitar for several of the album's tracks. A promotional video was shot for the single "Freak". The director of the video, comedian Matt Kissane, is also a Chicago resident. Clips from the "Freak" video were televised nationally on VH1.VH-1 Where Are They Now: Hair Bands

Seven (Enuff Z'nuff Album)
''Seven'' is the 7th studio album by American rock band Enuff Z'Nuff, which was originally released in Japan as ''Brothers'' under the band name Chip & Donnie in 1994. ''Seven'' was initially intended to form one half of a double-album for the Japanese market, paired with the record that would eventually become the album ''Tweaked''. The sessions were split into two separate discs, with the pop sounding ''Brothers'' album getting re-branded as an Enuff Z'nuff album in 1997 for its US release. As well as the re-titling and new artwork, ''Seven'' contains two bonus tracks not available on the original ''Brothers'' CD. On ''Seven'', the band adopted a more acoustic sound compared to ''Tweaked'', which may be seen as its heavier counterpart. Several tracks on the album are also significant to the band's history: "Down Hill" is thought by lead singer Donnie Vie to possibly contain late guitarist Derek Frigo's last studio recorded solo with the band. "You and I" was played by Donnie V ...

Peach Fuzz (album)
''Peach Fuzz'' is the sixth studio album from the American rock band Enuff Z'Nuff. Like the band's 1994 release ''1985'', this album is viewed more as an archival release than a new album since it features mostly previously recorded material. For example, the tracks "Let It Go" and "Kitty" were initially b-sides to the UK edition of the '' Strength'' single "Mother's Eyes," while the song "Happy Holiday" was first intended for the 1992 film ''Home Alone 2''. Many of the remaining tracks on ''Peach Fuzz'' were recorded during the making of the 1993 album '' Animals with Human Intelligence'', but were likely excluded from that release due to their poppier sounding nature. At the time of release, the album was largely ignored in the band's concert set lists, with the exception of "Vacant Love". In more recent years, the song "Kitty" has also been performed. Although no singles were released from the album, "Happy Holiday" has turned into one of the band's more popular songs due to it ...
