Vain

So, anyone else a fan of this band?

Nah. Too cheesy for me. If I'd heard them back in the day when I was listening to lotsa glam and hair bands, I might have dug them more.

About a year or so ago, I found an original copy of No Respect at a pawn shop for like a buck or 2. I gave it a shot, but it that type of music just doesn't age well for me. It represents a specific time in my life that has long since passed. It's nice to take a nostalgic look back every now & then with bands like Cinderella and Faster Pu$$ycat, but discoving "new" bands of that era isn't my thing.

On the plus side, I did sell it on ebay for a handsome sum.

Haven't heard them in years, but I had a friend in college who worshipped their NO RESPECT album, he was always listening to it in his car anytime we went somewhere, so after a while I reached a point where I never wanted to hear it again, haha.

Seriously though, I guess they were O.K. but I never felt particularly compelled to seek out any of their album(s).

I like No Respect.

It may interest you to know that Vain's long lost album"All Those Strangers" finally got a proper CD release this year.

All Those Strangers goes for some insane prices. Anything under seventy goes real quick. I love Vain but not that much. I've become a bigger fan of later albums like Fade and Move On It than I am of the older ones like No Respect.

It used to sell on Half.com for less then 20 bucks, but now i see it's out of stock.

One of my very faves.

No Respect is a great album.

'No Respect' is decent but the reviews I've read for it online are mind-boggling. It's like because it was rare for so long that it became better in the public's mind than what it really was.

I like "No Respect" alot.

Love multiple albums by them. No Respect gets all the love but Move on It is just as good and not as glammed out.
