Asking Alexandria Share Quarantine Acoustic Performance Of “Antisocialist”

Posted by caemanamelio on

Asking Alexandria have shared an acoustic quarantine performance of their song “Antisocialist.“ The original version of the track is from the band’s latest album “Like A House On Fire.“

Ben Bruce commented:

“Over the years, we have been known to release many acoustic versions of our songs from a number of albums. ‘Antisocialist’ has rapidly become our most successful active rock single of our entire career, so we wanted to do something special.

Instead of just another ‘acoustic version’ of a song, we decided to really strip this one back and try and recreate the song as an unplugged version that lives and breathes its own identity. An unplugged, vulnerable rendition of the song that hopefully allows people to feel like they are in the room with the band whilst we play it.

To all of our fans, old and new, we truly hope you enjoy this unique version of ‘Antisocialist’ as much as we do. We love you.”

“We all have a rebellious side and ‘Down To Hell’ is a big ol’, rebellious rock ‘n’ roll song reminiscent of ‘From Death To Destiny’. From the minute the song starts to the very last note, the energy doesn’t stop! It’s a headbanger from start to finish and I cannot wait to play this one live!”

Asking Alexandria Premiere “Antisocialist” Video, Reveal Details For New Album “Like A House On Fire”

Posted by caemanamelio on

Asking Alexandria have premiered a new video for their new song “Antisocialist.” This track is from the band’s new album “Like A House On Fire,” which will be released May 15.

Guitarist Ben Bruce said the following about the new song:

“‘Antisocialist‘ is a song written for everyone who just wants to stick their middle fingers up high in the air and scream at the top of their lungs. It’s a song for the frustrated, the forgotten, the unappreciated and the downtrodden. It’s a song for those who work hard and receive nothing in return. It’s a song for those who dream hard and are laughed at. A song that says what we all feel from time to time and a song to just let loose to! Enjoy!”

He also added the following about the album:

“We have been working our asses off for the last couple of years on creating this album. We are absolutely in love with what we have created. There are songs about triumph, strength and resilience. There are songs about losing love, losing passion and losing faith. There are songs about moving on to new things and song’s celebrating our journey. This album is filled with love and passion from the five original members of Asking Alexandria.”

Asking Alexandria Release Sikdope Remix Of “The Violence”

Posted by caemanamelio on

Asking Alexandria have released Sikdope’s remix of their track “The Violence.” You can find a video for that below:

Sikdope commented:

“I’ve been a fan of Asking Alexandria for as long as I can remember. They’re also great friends of mine, so of course I was thrilled when they asked me to remix ‘The Violence‘ (also one of my favorite tracks this year). I sang in a rock band as a teenager so remixing this track felt like second nature to me; I got to go back to my roots but also showcase the evolution of my sound. This remix feels like such an accomplishment for me because when I was in a band as a kid, my dream was to have a release on Sumerian… now I’m on it as a DJ.”

Asking Alexandria’s Ben Bruce added:

“I’m a firm believer that the best collaborations come from when artists come together through a true and real connection. A great collaboration can’t be forced, they are born from a mutual respect and passion. In this case Sikdope and myself had been friends and mutual fans of each other’s work for many years prior to this collaboration. We went out for dinner one night and decided, spur of the moment, to collaborate! I’m so excited that we finally got to work together and through combined efforts have created such a MONSTER of a tune!”
