Right after the release of their first fan pack "Reformation 01", the much anticipated new album from VNV Nation titled "OF FAITH, POWER AND GLORY" will be released on June 19th in Europe and on June 23rd in North America.
As Ronan Harris has described it "…In sound, the album moves on from where Judgement left off, taking the VNV Nation sound a firm step forward. It is an album that is, at times, soulful and anthemic while, at other times, it is raw and uncompromising."
The album cover was designed by Michal Karcz, who also created the artwork for the album "Judgement". Ronan says that: "…It is undoubtedly one of his finest works. The image of a monument, in the middle of a wasteland, is a metaphor for all our greatest hopes and solemn intentions and the brutal extremes that we're capable of, our schizophrenic nature as humans and the eternal struggle to move forward."
Chances are that Ronan will include some tracks in the following forthcoming live apperances:
- 30 May 09 – Germany : Leipzig, "Wave Gotik Treffen"
- 20 Jun 09 – Germany : Gelsenkirchen, Amphitheater, "Blackfield Festival 09"
Straight after this new release a European and American Tour will follow. Confirmed dates are below:
