Formed in 1984, Enuff Z’Nuff soon grew a live following and recorded their first demo songs, some of which would be officially released only much later in their career. The band’s first single, “Fingers On It,” received some recognition when it was featured in the 1986 cult movie Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer.

By 1989, Enuff Z’Nuff had released their first major label offering, a self-titled debut album on Atco Records, with founding members Donnie Vie and Chip Z’Nuff being joined by guitarist Derek Frigo and drummer Vik “Vikki” Foxx. They had two minor hits on this debut recording with the psychedelic-flavored pop rock songs “New Thing” and “Fly High Michelle”, which both received steady airplay on MTV. The band’s heavy glam rock appearance in their videos was later parodied on MTV’s Beavis & Butthead.

For their follow-up album, 1991’s Strength, the band tried to tone-down their glam image. It was released in 1991 to strong reviews, including Rolling Stone magazine calling the group “The hot band of the year.”[citation needed] There were promotional videos for the singles “Mother’s Eyes” and “Baby Loves You,” as well as an appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman. However, this follow-up album did not sell nearly as well as their first.

The band filed bankruptcy and left Atco Records, but soon after this event, the band was picked up by Clive Davis’ Arista Records label for their 1993 album Animals With Human Intelligence. This release, much like Strength, received some critical acclaim, but ultimately failed commercially. Before the album’s release, drummer Vikki Foxx quit the band to join Vince Neil’s solo band. He was replaced by New Jersey resident and former “War & Peace” member Ricky Parent. After Enuff Z’Nuff was dropped from Arista, guitarist Derek Frigo parted ways with the band. Despite these setbacks, the band has continued touring and recording up until the present, releasing albums on several independent labels, and also finding a solid fanbase overseas. The band had also made regular appearances in the mid-1990s and also 2005 on the Howard Stern Radio Show. More
