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." [5] Songs from these initial sessions, bootlegged as Lost In Vegas by fans, would be later reworked for the official release of Dissonance.[6] Several songs on the CD feature past Ozzy Osbourne/Badlands guitarist Jake E. Lee.

gollark: I quite like Iceland, personally, although more because I visited it and it was nice than anything about its governance or whatever.

gollark: I do wonder how that got added to Unicode.
