"We just finished a world tour of Asia, Australia, Latin & South America. We just have one word for the experience: Overwhelming. We never realized we had so many fans in all the corners of the world. It just proves how big the metal movement is, and how dedicated people are to it. Some people had travelled over 2000 kilometers to attend the shows. Just crazy. Overall, we are kinda exhausted from all the flying. I guess it comes down to around 25 flights in 4 weeks time. We are tired of airports by now, but the experience to visit all the countries and people has certainly been beyond worth it.
"We would like to thank all the people coming out for the shows. We had a great time, and cya again soon!
"Right now we are preparing for a mini tour of Ireland & Northern Ireland followed by a video shoot for 'Trenches,' which will premiere early next year, but more info on that soon.
