NIGHTWISH: 'Once' Tops European Album Charts

June 15, 2004

NIGHTWISH have sold in excess of 80,000 copies of their new album, "Once", in Germany during its first week of release to debut at No. 1 on the German album chart. "Once" has also topped the charts in Greece, Finland and Norway. In Sweden, the album entered the chart at No. 2 while in Austria it came in at No. 4.

NIGHTWISH have sold more than 30,000 copies of "Once", in Finland — enough for the CD to be certified platinum in the group's home country. A U.S. release date for the album has yet to be announced.

The group will launch their world tour in support of "Once", dubbed "Once Upon A Tour 2004-2005", this summer. The trek is expected to last until the autumn of 2005.
