The album Semidevilish, released in 2004, established the sound of the newly consolidated band. Next year released Transkarpatia,a major leap forward.

DARZAMAT started to play in European festivals as Rock Hard Open, Wave Gothic Treffen, etc. The band played also in Balkan states, Central Europe and also embarked on tours supporting Sabaton in Benelux and Moonspell in Poland.
