Stephen Vain jumped in to the scene in the late 80s and they had the chance to promote couple of their singles from the debut, "No Respect" on MTV before lost in the shuffle when the grunge wave came rolling in. The difference between Vain and most of the bands from the later day is they're bringing back the heavier edge of glam from the mid-80s such as Dokken and Motley Crue and no hint of commercial pop metal that's commonly found in Poison, Bon Jovi, or Firehouse.

Davy Vain's squeaking vocal, to be honest, isn't my favorite, but he nailed most of the songs pretty well and only missed a few pitch controls in songs like "Laws Against Love" and "Down For The Third Time". The whole songs were written by himself and the first three tracks in my opinion are their best moment. "Secrets" is a superb track but can't match the next two, "Beat The Bullet" and "Who's Watching You". Both Danny West and James Scott occasionally switched lead guitar position and delivered a thrilling performance. The mandatory ballads are "One Thousand Degrees" which is good but "Without You" is much better. "Aces" has a big punchy gang shout chorus, the title track is also lovable, and "Ready" is loud and catchy with Tom Rickard's pounding drumming being the song's highlight.

The production is very good and most of the songs are strong and enjoyable with “Smoke And Shadows” is probably the worst track here. It's always fun to see the heavy metal brought back again in the later era where most of the mediocre bands are recycling the three chord songs and released average albums. "No Respect" definitely deserved a huge respect, worth a solid four-stars, and recommended for fans of glam and even heavy metal.
