Dark Tranquillity's new DVD, Where Death Is Most Alive, recently landed at #1 on Sweden’s official DVD charts.

Guitarist Niklas Sundin states, "We are immensely pleased to report that the people of Sweden still have a great taste in music. Our Where Death Is Most Alive DVD just premiered at the #1 spot on the official Swedish DVD charts, kicking the asses of such luminaries as ABBA, MICHAEL JACKSON and MADONNA. Needless to say, we're humbled by the great response the DVD is receiving, and judging by the reactions at last weekend's official theatre screening we definitely have a winner on our hands. Everyone involved invested a lot of time and effort into putting together a package that really would be special and that would live up to the high expectations people would have of a 20-year anniversary release such as this, so it's great to see that it paid off. Thanks to everyone that attended and to everyone that has purchased the DVD.”

Where Death Is Most Alive is available as Ltd. Kingsize Mediabook 2DVD/2CD, 2DVD, 2CD and digital download. The audio formats consist of the main show’s material, mixed by the renowned Tue Madsen. Overall almost 5 hours of playing time.
