"Praise The Fallen" starts elusively slow with a spoken word piece that builds
to blistering dancefloor electronics that are the architecture of this album.
Offering a salute to Swedish Electro masters Covenant, VNV Nation design
powerful club tracks with simple basslines, deft drums, short programmed loops
and crisp vocals. Unlike their Northern European counterparts, however, VNV
Nation are vying for a hostile takeover of dance clubs across the world. The
thick bass drums relentlessly pummel all opponents into submission and the
punctuated synthesizers over run all resistance. VNV Nation raise their marker
on the flagpole of the international Electro scene and will take on all
contenders. One warning, if you cannot handle the occasional Synth-Pop
influence, avoid VNV Nation, as they love to throw in a few rogue musical
elements to distract the opposition.
