VNV Nation announces upcoming releases

[human clone]

VNV Nation's next release, "Reformation 1", will be released on April 17th in Europe. The North American release date is TBC but should be no more than a couple of weeks after the European date. We'll post that info as soon as we know.

This is a release that's specially intended for VNV Nation fans. It will come in the form of a limited edition, 3-disc, high quality, compact boxset containing; a 12 track live CD, a 12 track CD of remixes and rare or previously unreleased material, a DVD with 8 video edits put together by different people between 2005-2008, and a book of live images as well as a wealth of information about the tracks themselves. The Box Set will be limited to 18,000 copies worldwide (9,000 copies with a PAL format DVD for Europe and 9,000 copies with an NTSC format DVD for North America).

We spent a lot of time in 2008 planning what our releases should be like from now on and this is part of those plans. The original idea for Reformation was to replace the need for singles by releasing an EP or Album containing remixes, alternate versions and live versions of tracks from the album Matter and Form. There were problems getting the rights to use the live material and by the time the problem was solved we were already working on the last album 'Judgement', so it was postponed. We never abandoned the plan and, as ideas grew, Reformation evolved into something much bigger and better. Reformation 1 will be part of a series where we release special material to our fans. We put a lot of work into this and we're very proud of the results. We hope you will be too.


[added 20.Feb] For all who sent comments or messages asking - the release date, online ordering info, etc. will be posted here shortly. Retail in the US will be $25 for the boxset.

From what we've seen, Boxsets, especially limited ones, usually go for much more, but we honestly didn't see the sense in that, and especially in the current climate. We've done everything possible to produce this for the lowest price possible, considering that it still contains 2xCDs, a DVD and a rather stylish, compact, embossed, hardcover box with digipack and a book. After all, this is our new label's inauguration release and something we are sure you'll enjoy.
