It entered the Billboard 200 at number 70 and reached number four on the Dance/Electronic Albums chart. The album featured a distinctive blend of sharp synth lines and emotive vocals, defining the modern electronic pop landscape at the time.
The band toured North America in 2009, performing across eight cities. Their July 23 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! marked a significant milestone in introducing the act to American audiences.
