“We are very happy to have landed on the Billboard charts for the first time in our career! Thanks to everybody who has bought the album so far. This feels great and hopefully the huge North American tour that we are doing right now will make more people know about us. The tour has been very successful so far and we still have about five weeks left. If you haven’t bought the album yet, please go get it. Darkane is here to stay!”A complete list of Darkane tour dates can be found here.
