HARDLINE MEDIA proudly presents VNV NATION for their long overdue return to Australian shores.
VNV NATION, also known as Victory Not Vengeance, is a British/Irish Electronic music group formed in London, the brainchild of Ronan Harris who fronts the band as singer, songwriter and producer.
Ronan Harris was born and raised in Dublin, Ireland, where he was exposed to electronic music via radio. He developed an interest in bands such as KRAFTWERK, DAF and THE HUMAN LEAGUE. In 1983, he joined a band named Die Fabrik, whose punk-inspired noise and synth style didn't land well in Dublin. This led to Harris moving to London in 1989 where he began composing under the name of Nation, then modified to Victory Not Vengeance, to then become VNV NATION.
VNV NATION's earliest releases were inspired by middle-era EBM acts such as NITZER EBB and FRONT 242. Their Empires album released in 1999 expanded on the band's melodic synthesizer lines and incorporated tighter song structures. Empires is considered their breakthrough album, gaining them widespread commercial success and topping the German DAC (Deutsche Alternative Charts) for seven weeks.
Since then, VNV NATION have remained one of the most popular Alternative Electronic Music bands, topping the DAC charts in many countries and headlining festivals worldwide, especially in Germany where the band have achieved incredible success.
Their 2 latest releases CONSTRUCT and DESTRUCT, both released in 2025, again topped the charts, with Construct reaching No.3 on the German Official Top 100. VNV NATION continue to be one of the leaders in the Electronic Alternative Scene, and Ronan and the band cannot wait to return to Australia - it has been a long time, but they are finally on their way back Down Under.
