Lost 80's Gem - Too Much Ain't Enough

Are there any other fans on the board of Seduce? I love their 1988 IRS release, Too Much Aint Enough. It is one of my very favorite albums.



It was an overlooked gem in an oversaturated market for metal in the late 80's. The band was in The Decline of Western Civilization Part 2 The Metal Years. The movie featured their song, Crash Landing.

Anyone with thoughts on Seduce?

Huh...I can't recall ever hearing about them, but they're on my lala want list. Shiney must have told me about them. I've never heard them, though.

Here is some legal (?) files of the band.

I've never heard of em. Strange too, cause I was pretty into the metal underground back in the late 80s. What do they sound like?

Like you said though, during that particular time there were so many bands - it was virtually impossible to keep track of them all. It's becoming more and more like that nowadays too.

During the 90s, you could count the good metal bands on your ten fingers.

Whoops, I must've posted same time as you! Didn't see you posted some samps! Thanks, I'll try to download them.

They are hard for me to put into words and do them justice. Maybe a rougher version of......wow. I am listening to them now and just can't think of a comparison. Hmmm...I'll have to think harder on it.

Originality is always good!!!

SEDUCE is excellent metal....they were lumped in with the gla scene....but the are really along the lines of maybe ODIN or early RATT or maybe even DOKKEN..sleaze tinged metal....

this cd is awsome....as was their track "Colleen" of the DECLINE 2 soundtrack.....

I never seen those "Decline" movies. Perhaps that's why I missed them.

Yup, I have that album. Pretty good stuff, I agree.

I remember them from "Decline II" and liking the song they played in the film, but I never sought out any of their material.

Killer Band! Saw em live back in the late 80's up in MI-(was under 21 at the time,but got in anyway).Unique three piece that could've easily blown many more well known acts off the frickin stage.If you don't have it already go get their s/t release--its just as good as "Too Much"-albeit a little more agressive and a bit heavier.

IronAge-

I want the S/T release. I just dont want to pay 40.00 dollars for it.

Wow! These samples sound great. The singer is reminding me of an early raw version of Vince Neil.

And that's a pretty cool website, by the way.

COLLEEN is the song on the soundtrack but in tha movie you can here the song CRASH LANDING. Together with EMPTY ARMS my two fave of their second album.
I just listen to their first album from 1985 and my fave songs are STREETS, FACE TO FACE, CHOPPING BLOCK, HEADBANGERS and THE MIRROR.

I have this one. I remember finding it in a used bin for like a dollar or 2. The only reason I recognized it was from their part in "Decline...". And yes, it is a forgotten gem. Sotra sleazy metal, but not too over-the-top like some of their more glammy cohorts.

I've had this on cassette for years and recently found a used copy on cd. I had to get this if I had found nothing else that day.
