Asking Alexandria is a band that has fans of them divided. On the band’s earlier material, “Dark Void”, the band’s first single from their upcoming yet to be named record out sometime this fall, sees vocalist Danny Worsnop return to screaming and also sees the band return to breakdowns. This is far from their more recent sound, and mixes elements of their past and present sounds into something fans should be interested to hear.
“With the world seemingly getting darker and darker, it’s easy to see why so many of us struggle with anxiety, depression, loneliness,” relays guitarist BEN BRUCE. “This song is about fighting those demons that live in your head and trying your hardest to be your own savior. Finding that inner strength to pull yourself out of the darkness.”
“This theme is explored throughout the entirety of our upcoming album. We all have our own struggles and hurdles. We are all on our own journeys that present unique challenges and difficulties, but we all have our own inner strength to fall back on. There is always light at the end of the tunnel. I feel that there can be comfort in knowing that we aren’t alone. We all feel a little down from time to time. We all feel a little lost from time to time, but somehow, in some way, we are all in this together and hopefully our new album can help people through some of their toughest times.”
