Vampire Nation

Gothic electronica practitioners Vampire Nation started in 1994, under the leadership of Egypt-born tech-head Fredrik Von Hamilton. He had been a world traveler since birth, and his unique experiences and bizarre musical tastes lent themselves to the strange songs he started writing. Several independent albums were released throughout the late 90's and into the next decade, although their success on MP3.com led to efforts like Wise-Ta-Nech and Eternal getting bigger recognition from the mainstream.
