5.0 out of 5 stars A must for fans, May 13, 2009

By	Bruce Brocka (Quad Cities) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase

This boxed set has two audio CDs, and a live concert DVD. The first disc is primarily live versions from their newer albums, Matter and Form and Judgement. The second disc has a few more live versions and some previously unreleased material.

If you're a fan of VNV Nation, you'll like this set. I enjoy their live versions, and this edition doesn't disappoint. Ronan Harris also provides some liner notes in this inexpensive yet elgantly designed and produced set.

If you're new to VNV, I'd strongly suggest Empires or FuturePerfect or Judgement first. Like most live versions, it's best to be a fan and already familiar with the music to appreciate the "theme and variations".

5.0 out of 5 stars Big Bang for Little Bucks, May 13, 2009

Length:: 5:48 Mins

The limited edition of the Reformation 01 box set by VNV Nation is a real bargain. For little more than the price of a regular album CD you get 2 Cd's and a video DVD with 8 tracks recorded at live concerts in Europe (mostly Hamburg, Germany).

I also like to remark that the box set includes the first ever LIVE ALBUM by VNV Nation, so fans who prefer VNV Nation live over the studio recordings do not have to fall back on the not 100% legitimate Live album solution by ripping the audio tracks of the previously released Pastperfect Live DVD :). Vnv Nation - Pastperfect Limited Edition

CD 2 of the set includes in addition to various remixes of known songs also some new material, which was previously unreleased.

Last but not least some comments about the box set itself. It's of high quality, compared to other box sets by other bands that I have seen myself in the past. It also contains a thick booklet that wouldn't fit into a regular CD case. The only bummer here is that the booklet is glued to the box set and thus hard to read in comfort because of the 3 discs next to it (when you unfold the whole set).

I almost forgot: You can get a good idea about the quality of the box set by looking at the large version of the product image that was provided by Amazon. Use the zoom feature to get a real close look at the material and the "engraved" VNV Nation logo. That's why is the cover so dark, because it isn't printed color. You can feel it (if you bought it :))

4.0 out of 5 stars An ideal Box set for hardcore VNV fans, May 14, 2009

By	Christopher Dimauro - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you love VNV NATION then this boxset will not dissapoint you! This is a really good boxset that is way worth the price! 12 LIVE tracks along with 13 remixes and unreleased material.

Overall I would give this a 4.5 / 5. really worth it.

I love live tracks and also the DVD. However im not that really into remixes so i got it for the unreleased tracks "Still waters" "Suffer" and "Precipice" as well as the tracks from Gene Generation.

This is a solid boxset while we wait for "Of faith power and glory"
