"Ultra Beatdown", the new album from DRAGONFORCE, has registered the following first-week chart positions:
Japan: #9
Canada: #15
USA: #18
UK: #18
Australia: #18
Ireland: #47
"Ultra Beatdown" sold 24,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release.
DRAGONFORCE will hit the U.S. for a six-week headline tour that hits major markets. DRAGONFORCE are a touring machine, but their last headline tour occured two years ago in September 2006. It was a sold-out spectacle that cemented the band's reputation as a live powerhouse, so it's time for the band to once again topline a bill. TURISAS will serve as main support for the tour, which kicks off on November 1 and runs through December 19.
