VNV Nation are a British electronic band that formed in the early 90’s. They started off playing industrial/EBM and then became a futurepop/trance band. They released “Praise the Fallen” an album with harsh electronic beats, barriers of noise, intricate sequences and dark vocals, then they released a more mellow “Empires” a synth/pop record with throbbing beats and upbeat rhythm sections, more melodic. Pure naked machine beats!
Also playing: Straftanz – German electronic/aggrotech project.
VNV Nation are back in North America touring behind their latest release “The Great Divide EP.” This is a remix of last year’s album, “of Faith, Power & Glory.” A number of artists contributed and it includes some unreleased tracks. This UK/Irish duo formed by Ronan Harris and Mark Jackson, play a more accesible style of Industrial/EBM/electro-rock – “futurepop” they call it, for fans of Assemblage 23, Depeche Mode, Velvet Acid Christ and Wolfsheim. They usually play larger venues but this time it will be a more intimate show. Do not miss it if your a fan of this genre – great visuals!
