Los Angeles, CA – May 26, 2009 – Metal Blade Records is proud to announce that Detroit, MI's THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER has just hit the Billboard Top Music Videos Chart at the #2 position in the US and #5 position in Canada with the band's brand new and first ever DVD release, Majesty. Since the band's inception, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER has had a relentless worldwide touring schedule ranging from successful appearances at European Festivals to a blistering set at Loud Park in Japan to tirelessly crisscrossing the US on Ozzfest and Sounds of the Underground, not to mention all the headlining and support slot tours the band has been a part of. This side splitting peek into the hard working band's humor laced brand of daily life will have you smelling the funk of the van from coast to coast and keep you coming back for more.

Here's what vocalist Trevor Strnad had to say about reaching the #2 and #5 spots on the Billboard Top Music Videos Charts; “We in The Black Dahlia Murder are completely ecstatic about the reception of our first DVD release for Metal Blade Records, Majesty! I won't lie and say that I had no expectations of the release; throughout its creation I had an inkling that we may be onto something. Having the second highest charting music DVD in the states and the fifth highest in Canada is more than enough proof that I was right! Thank you to the fans…this DVD is dedicated to you and you alone. You are the reason this band stays strong and keeps on going. Our most sincere thanks to our friend and director Robbie Tassaro for his undying devotion to the project. Without him, Majesty never would have happened. Stay tuned to the BDM…big things are on the horizon!”
