"[12] A limited edition version of Darkhorse came with a bonus DVD which included a making-of-the-album documentary, as well as the music videos for "Drowning," "Butterfly," and "Revolving Door."

[14] Rap group Dirty Unit (which had previously collaborated on the song "Think Fast" from The Gift of Game) provided vocals on the b-side "Suck on My Gun," which was used on the singles for both "Drowning" and "Hurt You So Bad."

Max Sadeghi played the santoor on "Sorry," while the album's producer Howard Benson provided additional keyboards on multiple songs.

In August 2002, the band provided a demo version of the song "Battlecry" for exclusive airing on Jay Gordon's D1 Music internet radio station.

[17][18] The band later reflected they felt their management and record label had already given up on promoting Darkhorse by the time they returned from Europe, before it was even released.

[19] The band held a live chat with their fans on their website on the night of the release date,[20][21] and later appeared on the Rockline radio show on November 25, 2002.

[26] Crazy Town stated they were not personally disappointed that the album did not sell as well as their last, The Gift of Game, considering they were moving the band in a new direction, away from the pop success they achieved with their number 1 song "Butterfly.

"[26] A second and final single, "Hurt You So Bad," featuring a guitar solo by Rivers Cuomo of Weezer, was released in February 2003, but failed to chart.

[19] Although rumors of the band's breakup surfaced due to inactivity, Tyler confirmed in November 2003 that Crazy Town was still together but had gone under hiatus to allow each member to focus on solo endeavors.
