## Summary

The Vain came up in the early 1980s, around the time new wave was taking off. Their song 'The Rocket' got them noticed and became their calling card. The band was fronted by Rik The Rik, with Jake The Jake on bass and Skip The Skip on drums. Their debut album was self-titled, and they followed it with records like 'Electric Nights' and 'Heart of Stone.' You can hear some...
