As of June 15, 2007, the album has sold almost 700,000 units worldwide, 215,000 of them in Canada making it certified 2× Platinum, and 200,000 shipped units in Germany achieved it platinum status there. Since then, the record has gone on to be certified 4x platinum in Canada and 2x platinum in Germany, putting the album over 1 million units sold worldwide. However, the success did not duplicate itself in the U.S. The band has expressed that they know they are a new band there, and they are choosing to concentrate their attention on Canada, Europe, and other places overseas instead. The album contains less anger and profanity than their previous self-titled album, as they had mellowed out and matured as men and as a band.

The band ventured off on another UK tour in support of Billy Talent II, but this one would include more shows in countries they had not performed in before. During this tour leg, the gigs at London and Manchester, on September 8 and 16, respectively, were recorded live.

The whole band returned the following month to play the show.

Following the Canadian tour, the band ventured onto their first US club tour. The band went on a large overseas tour, beginning on June 1, 2007.

As of September 11, 2007, the band has indicated that their 18-month tour
