Dark Tranquility To Hit Austrailia, Japan and More

Swedish melodic death metallers DARK TRANQUILLITY have posted the following message on their official web site:

"The rumors are true — we're indeed coming to Australia, but not only that we're including Japan and Korea on the same trip.

"Throughout the years, we've recieved tons of questions from fans down under wanting us to play there, so needless to say we're extremely pleased to finally have gotten the chance to deliver some metal mayhem in the land of Foster's and kangaroos.

"Playing in Japan and Korea is always a fantastic experience, so it'll be a pleasure to come back for the first time in 2-3 years and play the first 'Character'-based shows in these territories."
