Back in September we lost our cool over Transnational, the new record from EBM/darkwave heroes VNV Nation. Suggesting a return to the beautifully crushing dance floor glory of their late-’90s/early-’00s material, it seemed inevitable that the duo of Ronan Harris and Mark Jackson would mark the October release with a full-on return to the states.
The first leg of the 2014 Transnational tour was announced late last year, but it included no Boston date. VNV have rectified that with today’s announcement of the second run, and the juggernaut hits Royale on Wednesday, May 7 (Tickets are $20 in advance, $25 day of show).
Want to win tickets before the pre-sale opens this Friday? Email michael@vanyaland.com with VICTORY NOT VENGEANCE in the subject line, and we’ll select a winner at random by Thursday at noon. And please don’t send us any Ronan Harris fan fiction, that won’t help your chances of winning.
