Asking Alexandria "The Black" Album Review

This is the first album AA have ever released without Danny Worsnop on vocals and it is f#@$ing badass! This album is everything you would hope for if you are a die hard Asking Alexandria fan or Metalcore enthusiast.

Stepping up to the plate on vocals is Dennis Shaforostov and he does not disappoint! His vocals are very good on this album from high beautiful cleans to deep, low, blood chilling lows he does not disappoint in the vocal department and totally kills it on both the singing and screaming for this album.

Kicking things off is the song "let it sleep" and like Ben Bruce said it's one of the heaviest songs they've ever written. It's similar to morte et dabo from the reckless and relentless album and at some points sounds a bit like Attila I love it

Carrying on with the album is the title track is "The Black" and it's one of the best riffs I have ever heard from this band. This song is awesome! It even has some piano and singing from Ben Bruce!!!

Next is "I Won't Give In" which I'm sure you've heard if you've been following AA and it kicks major ass. It's probably one of the most pop/mainstream track on the record but it's still a quality track

I won't review every track, you can just go buy the album and love it because it is awesome 100%

My Favorite tracks are: The Black, Undivided, I Won't Give In, Let It Sleep, The Lost Souls although I loved the entire album!

In Conclusion: Asking Alexandria have proved that they can still rock even without Danny Worsnop on the mic. and continue to put out heavy hitting metalcore music!

5 Stars!!!!! AA blew it out of the water with this album! PHENOMENAL!!!!

Danny Worsnop left Asking Alexandria!! :O

Yes AA family it is true, Danny Worsnop has Officially left Asking Alexandria to focus on his band "We Are Harlot". I'm partly saddened by this news because I am a huge Asking Alexandria fan, but at the same time I'm kind of proud that Danny is following his guts as far as what will make him happy and what he's passionate about. After all he did say that he was always more of a rock N roll guy as opposed to a Metalcore guy.

As for Asking Alexandria I can only wonder... Will they go on without him and find a new singer? is this the end? Will Danny ever come back?

I wear my AA shirts with pride, I have a video of me crowd surfing at one of their concerts on my YouTube channel, "Breathless" is my official theme song, I listen to all of their albums and I've watched tons of their interviews. I LOVE THIS BAND. I hope they figure out a way to carry on as Asking Alexandria (much like Escape The Fate did with Craig Mabbitt after Ronnie left) even though it wouldn't be the same and might take some getting used to. If they're over as a band then I'll just keep jamming the Stand Up and Scream, Reckless and Relentless and From Death To Destiny albums.

I hope we can expect new albums from both Asking Alexandria AND We are harlot in the future.

Asking Alexadria Breathless lyric

"Oh!
Every mistake I've made leaves a scar that burns EVERYDAY.

Yet still I carry on
Without regret
Without remorse
I'm gone
You're better off to walk away
I am corruption, I am sin

Forget my name
Forget my face
Forget my name
Forget my face"

I'm pretty sure this song will forever be my all around personal theme song

"I spend my days looking through pages, trying to find a way to get away from me...

With love to give that leaves you breathless. Now all I need to find, A way back inside my mind...

THIS IS NOT THE END (this is the end of...) this is NOT the end (this is the end of...)

THIS IS NOT THE END!!!" -Asking Alexandria "Breathless"
