VAIN
Vain is an American glam metal band from San Francisco Bay Area, California, formed in 1986. As of 2018, the lineup consists of Davy Vain (lead vocals), Joel Proto (guitar), Ashley Mitchell (bass) and Tommy Rickard (drums).
After recording a demo, Davy Vain founded Vain in 1986, adding Dylana Nova Scott, Danny West, Ashley Mitchell and drummer Tom Rickard to the lineup. They signed with Island Records in 1988, before releasing their debut album the following year, titled No Respect, which peaked at number 154 on the Billboard 200.
Though they recorded a second album, Vain were released by Island in 1991. That same year ex Guns N' Roses drummer Steven Adler asked Davy to join him in forming Road Crew. Davy agreed to join Road Crew with Dylana Nova Scott joining him. They would add guitarist Shawn Rorie and eventually bassist Ashley Mitchel to finalize the bands line up. This put Vain on hiatus and left Tommy Rickard and Danny West to continue their musical journeys elsewhere. Road Crew however also disbanded in 1991 due to Adler's drug abuse. Vain then reformed in 1993 and went through a number of lineup changes for the release of their next two studio albums. By 2005, Scott and West had returned to the band, while Rickard would rejoin them in 2009 and share drumming duties with Louie Senor.
To date, Vain have released eight studio albums; No Respect (1989); All Those Strangers (1991); Move On It (1993); Fade (1995); On The Line (2005); Enough Rope (2011); Rolling With The Punches (2017), and
'Disintegrate Together' (2024).
