The Chicago foursome known as Enuff Z'nuff are not a closely held secret in the music community. Their previous 9 CD releases have garnered the band heaps of praise from reviewers and their fellow musicians. Legends like Robert Plant and KISS's Paul Stanley plus Metallica, Billy Corgan and Howard Stern have all singled out this band as something special. 

Unfortunately, the mass music audiences have not had exposure to Enuff Z'nuff's music since their successful debut in 1989 that featured the two hit radio and MTV singles, "Fly High Michelle" and "New Thing". Now it is nine albums and a decade later and Enuff Z'nuff is primed to bring their brand of rock n roll to fans in America and Europe. After carefully listening to the CD it is apparent that the music is there, we will see if radio and MTV will give these windy city musicians the exposure they deserve. 

The band recently inked deals with Z-Records in Europe and Spitfire Records for the release of their 10th CD aptly titled 10. 

Here is the official press release:

ENUFF Z�NUFF SIGN TO Z-RECORDS IN EUROPE, SPITFIRE IN THE US

Enuff Z�nuff and UK�s Z-Records joined forces at the beginning of August, and will release �10� on September 18th, 2000 throughout Europe.

The following month, Spitfire Records will release �10� in the United States, and EMI-Canada will release the album in Canada. The scheduled release date is October 3, 2000. Spitfire will also re-release the classic Enuff Z�nuff album �Animals with Human Intelligence� with the bonus track originally released only in Japan, �Fingertips� on that same day.

�10� has already been released in Japan and Asia, garnishing praise and rave reviews. One of the Power Pop songs on the album, �There Goes My Heart� also charted briefly, marking the first time EZN has broken the nationals there.
The American/Canadian/European album covers have been redesigned from the Japanese artwork to reflect the FIRST RELEASE of the new millennium. The cover for this release will look exactly like the FIRST album, the self titled �ENUFF Z�NUFF� with a 1 before the peace sign. The first album brought Enuff Z�nuff it�s first set of twin radio and MTV hits, �Fly High Michelle,� and �New Thing,� and the tenth album is also laden with hits, such as �There Goes My Heart� among others.

�10� also marks the first time since 1993�s �Animals with Human Intelligence� that Enuff Z�nuff have a video ready to promote the album.

Earlier this year, EZN went on location in California to film the video to �There Goes My Heart.�  Produced by Braddon Mendelson at Noisivision Music Video Productions, and Directed by Brian Smith of Black Rose Productions, (their credits include TV commercials, Ricky Martin and Sublime among others) the video depicts a teenage boy with a crush on a girl, but cannot approach her. Braddon and Brian skillfully blend his black and white world with the color that is hers. The result is a video that shows EZN comfortable in what they do best. Produce great music, as they have done with every album since their debut.

The track listing for �10� are:
1) There Goes My Heart
2) Fly Away
3) The Beast
4) Your Hearts No Good...But I Love Your Face
5) Wake Up
6) What Can I Do?
7) Suicide
8) Alright
9) Holiday
10) Bang On
11) Jean Genie
12) Everything Works If you Let It (remix- for the UK version only
