Sven Ehlers aka “Syntopia” and Andreas Lindner aka “Anlin” are the centre of the musical world of Violent. The band was established by Sven in 1997. Andreas joined the band in 1999.Since the `70 both musicians are in the musical scene and have played in several Rock- and Pop-bands.They started to love the electronic music. Even today you can feel the influences of Tangerine Dream, Pink Floyd and ELP.It isn’t easy to put Violent in a genre and its also not wanted by the members of the band.The change of modern style with elements of the pop- , rock- and world-music amount on the one hand, visionary on the other hand, danceable landscapes of sound.
Synthetic sounds are tamed and enriched with a new variety.Surprising variations always appear in their work.
They played with styles and rhythm without loosing themselves in their music.
The several musical songs always invite to a journey of fantasy.Since 2006 Violent call the music as “Ambilent Pop music"

Frequently the musicians are asked for their band name, but your wrong if you think “Violent” is violent.With their music and their lyrics Violent wants to express contrasts in a provocation ally way, what especially comes out in the combination of band name and lyrics.You can also call Violent “strong” for example in association with passion, because that’s what they are - passionate musicians.
