In early  2021, all five members of the Yorkshire-based group found themselves together in a house in Franklin, Tennessee where they wrote and recorded their new album. It was the first time in over a decade that all of them were together in the same studio.

Along with this announcement, Asking Alexandria shared the album’s first single, “Alone Again”, an introspective rock anthem and a powerful track full of raw, emotion that is sure to really excite fans, especially in a live setting. You can listen to the band’s new track below.

The band’s lead guitarist Ben Bruce stated that “Alone Again” and the rest of this album is the result of us reconnecting and falling back in love with why we started this band in the first place,” guitarist Ben Bruce said. “No frills or cheap tricks, just the five of us playing our instruments as hard and as loud as we can!”

He carried on “At some point in our lives, we all feel lost and confused as to who we are and who we want to be, and I think this song will really unite all of us in that sense. We are so excited to share, not only this new song with you all, but our new album.”

“We went back to our roots as musicians and really wanted to reignite that passion and love for rock and metal music. Metallica, Led Zeppelin, Queen, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Aerosmith, AC/DC … all the greats that we fell in love with as kids have greatly influenced this new album and we couldn’t be more excited!”

The album can be pre-ordered here.

Discussing album six, Bruce said: “I think the guitar riffs are the biggest I’ve ever written; I think the lyrics are fucking fantastic; I think the songwriting is the strongest it’s ever been,” 

He added: “When people listen to the journey and come along for the ride, they’re going to experience a vast number of emotions from start to finish.”

With Asking Alexandria, Danny and his group unveiled their new single “The Violence” on July 11, marking their first release since their self titled fifth album in 2017.

Guitarist Ben Bruce told Kerrang!: “We are back bigger, better, louder and more insane than ever before,” said guitarist Ben Bruce, speaking to Kerrang! about the song, adding. “This single encompasses everything we have been working towards. Huge guitars, anthemic drums and some of the catchiest, most technically accomplished vocals that Danny has ever delivered, and this is only just the beginning” 

In the seven-minute feature-length music video, the group goes up against a zombie epidemic.

Discussing the comically violent music video, Worsnop described how everyone had “had a great time making it”.

“We are back bigger, better, louder and more insane than ever before,” said guitarist Ben Bruce, speaking to Kerrang! about the song, adding. “This single encompasses everything we have been working towards. Huge guitars, anthemic drums and some of the catchiest, most technically accomplished vocals that Danny has ever delivered, and this is only just the beginning”

The seven minute feature length music video depicts the Reckless and Relentless rockers caught in the midst of a zombie epidemic, with the song’s title reflecting the cartoonishly violent content of the music video. “The Violence was an incredibly rewarding song to create” says Danny Worsnopp, lead vocalist of the band. “I hope everyone enjoys what we’ve created here, we had a great time making it, and even more fun shooting the video!”

However, if the four singles released since Worsnop’s exit, extensive touring worldwide and an upcoming album due at the end of this month weren’t enough to cement the band’s longevity, UK fans are sure to have been reassured today when it was announced that Asking Alexandria will be playing two “intimate” headline UK shows preceding their debut appearance at Reading & Leeds Festival this August. See their UK dates for this year so far below:

15/08/2016 – Southampton, UK – Engine Rooms

16/08/2016 – London, UK – Koko

26/08/2016 – Reading, UK – Reading & Leeds Festival, The Pit Stage

27/08/2016 – Leeds, UK – Reading & Leeds Festival, The Pit Stage

Denis Stoff was revealed to be Asking Alexandria’s new vocalist and consequently Stoff featured in the four singles released in the past year, however upcoming album The Black will be his first appearance on an Asking Alexandria album, meaning he has a lot to prove to any fans that are still dubious. Asking Alexandria’s most recent offering Let It Sleep was released alongside a music video last week – watch it here and decide for yourself whether Stoff’s vocals are a fitting addition to the band.

Asking Alexandria’s fourth studio album The Black is due for release on March 25th. Tickets for the new UK dates go on sale Friday 18th March at 9am.

The video consisting of live footage from the York-based bands sold-out show at Brixton 02 Academy in January, comes a week before the release of, ‘From Death to Destiny’, which will be released on August 6th.

Discussing the upcoming album with Metal Hammer, guitarist and founding member Ben Bruce stated:

‘This is our biggest sounding record and alongside the classic ASKING ALEXANDRIA stuff — the breakdown sections, heavy sections, fast sections — we’ve thrown a lot of new influences in there. It’s a very diverse album and I think people who pigeonholed us are going to realize they were wrong when they hear it.’

Asking Alexandria will embark on an extended US tour in August, before performing with Bullet for My Valentine and Young Guns on a four date UK arena tour this December. The dates are as follows:

December 1st – Manchester Arena December
December 3rd – Birmingham NIA
December 5th – London Wembley Arena
December 6th – Cardiff CIA
