after all the crap they have released, this is very good... They just need to be consistent. Considering their talent they were just lazy with previous releases.
according to an interview this is the first album in over 10 years that the band has been together in the studio.. im sure this has something to do with the difference in sound from them
I've seen a teaser(link: ruclips.net/video/waGl2HhB8GQ/видео.html) of all the songs of the album, and, oH MAH FUCKING GOD, there is some screaming. They are finally back
After watching some of Danny’s streams watching old videos of himself I feel like there is more to him specifically not wanting to do heavy again. Every now and again he will let you in on just how bad things were during those times and it is obvious he absolutely hated himself . That being said, I have nothing but the upmost respect for him completely turning his life around and I absolutely love this new record for me it’s some of my favorite work they have ever done . With his talent he could very well be a Corey Taylor if they went down that road, but Outside of artistically not wanting to do what they have already done (which I totally get) I think there is too much of a negative stigma for him. Seems like anyways , regardless I’ll always support whatever they do . And if the SNOP ever decides to go heavy again , the world will explode cause his heavy is a different kind of heavy .
I think this is the “From Death to Destiny” album they wanted to make back in 2013, asking always wanted to go more into a “hard rock” vibe with their music and I think this might be the record that will bring back some old fans after Self Titled and Like A House On Fire :)
@@Fede4Cod The snippets from their IG filter looks promising for hard rock as well. This one feels a bit off, I'll agree there, but it's still better than whatever the fuck their latest album was.
Is it just me or has Danny’s voice gotten significantly higher and more nasally recently? Like comparing his vocals on this to a song like Vultures, there’s a MASSIVE difference. Great song tho.
I think so too. His range has definitely gotten higher, as first seen on the Aerosmith cover he did with Jared Dines. Not sure about nasally but I welcome the slight change.
Wow, they actually produce a pretty good song. Insane. Now its time for A Day To Remember to actually release something else than garbage. I'm waiting.
Love this for an intro to a new album. Danny was saying they switched to a new producer and found themselves writing this album. This is the first time they've actually recorded in studio together as a band since From Death to Destiny. Because of this it sounds like they've been inspired to write a much more passionate and driven album. After hearing this im expecting much more that sounds closer to FDTD and hopefully a few heavier bits throughout. 👍
Man i've said it for so long. Idc if theyre not playing breakdowns and screaming anymore, but house on fire was terrible. This song was exactly what i wanted from them it's like moving on, death of me (rock mix), send me home, here I am, someone somewhere, I am one. As fans, we just want good songs whether theyre heavy or not, we can live without the Walmart family friendly pg music. Asking has always got that rock n roll vibe to them, and knowing Ben's influences like metalica and a7x its nice to hear them playing something you know theyre happy to play and isnt just radio garbage.
I didn’t think LAHOF was terrible but It was just okay to me tbh not the best, definitely at the bottom of the list of you rank all the albums together
I really really enjoyed this and even though it still has their newer sound, just the production and variety instrumentally makes this sound sooo much better than their last album
They had awful contract with summerian for 6 albums, and I think this is the main reason why Like a house on fire was that bad. They just wanted to leave this label as fast as possible and now they start with new single and I think it is a good work, they enjoy this music and it's cool. It's kinda basic, there is no revolution, but there are amazing vocals from Danny, amazing guitar, and overall sound is really good. I wasn't expecting nothing from them since LAHOF came out, but it's interesting
I was pleasantly surprised by this. It still felt a bit off to me, but it's a good song regardless and I've had it on repeat for most of the week it's been out (until new Whitechapel dropped lmao). I'm excited for the full album, it's looking promising with the snippets from their IG filter.
Danny's already stated he doesn't want to. I believe he did a pretty brutal clip on Instagram and said that something like "Just because I don't want to, doesn't mean I can't."
Did enjoy. Not really a listener of AA in he first place so I just like whatever and don't get caught up in if it's like that band. Some people don't think about it like that but for some things if you do you'll start to enjoy more things
this is much better than what we got on like a house on fire.The problem with like a house on fire wasn't the fact that it wasn't a heavy record,it was the fact that it felt like a lazy record,which was disappointing considering their self-titled was pretty good.THIS is solid,the production was much better than anything on like a house on fire.
So I refused to listen to LAHOF in full - I've heard snippets (including Hard Core's album reaction RUclips video) and it disgusted me. This is definitely the best thing I've heard from them since FDTD (or some of The Black), which is a positive. The instrumental work in the verses and actually having a solo is also a posiitve. The negatives? Simplistic, and a pretty blah chorus. Also, who would have thought that Danny would be the weakest part of the song! If he doesn't want to scream, that's fine, but bring some of that grit and swagger from We Are Harlot into the vocals at least.
I agree its a step in the right direction🙌 How about some russian slaughter? The new STP album "Kostolom" is pure gold. You need to hear the full album my dude💀
Still think that their self-titled album is the best in their whole career, yeah this is a tremendous improvement after Like a House on Fire and I like it, but still not that level. Hope that the next singles will be even better
@@itsfenyx1585 haha it’s cool man, and nah that album was The Black, their self titled was the album they dropped when Danny Worsnop came back to the band
Agreed! I think the self-titled was a great comeback album though and I don't think the sound of this song would exist if it wasn't for that album. I think this song sits right in between FTDT and self-titled, a sound that fits them perfectly imo. This new album will be great, I got a good feeling!
You seriously gotta check out the newest singles Toxin and Kaos2 by the legendary swedes and originators of thall themselves, Vildhjarta. Absolutely amazing band and tracks
this album is also the first time they all met in a studio in 10 years, according to ben and danny, and ben said it was probably the most proud he’s been of what they’ve written in a while. i cant wait for this album, i already preorded it. they really sound like theyre coming into a sound that they’ve been trying to build for a while
Oh it’s boring, but they’ve set the bar so low that this seems impressive. Extremely generic, unimaginative and those verses are painfully awkward, but not awful. Just a whole lot of meh
@@toastcrumbs2094 more the reason to bring back the old sound or try to make it interesting at least try to be creative this shit ain’t it , But who knows there other bands who are heavy that I would rather listen at this asking Alexandria is more mature of a band
I like the direction they are heading in. I don't think they will ever have screaming again. If they do i think it will be more like bmth - PHSH with breakdowns that are very short. If they do go in that direction, i would love it though. Danny's screams are so fucking good and they write really good heavy music. Can't wait to hear the album though.
Production is definitely different, but apart from the instruments sounding more punchy, Danny's vocals sound 10 times butter with this production. I feel like if House On Fire had this production some songs might have sounded much better.
I guess everyone have different opinions on this but I think the song is just bland, Danny voice just isn't for me,people …calling it avenged sevenfold rip-off but even their song is much more enjoyable than this. That solo is pretty decent tho. Best part of this song
@UCesjPgigID5QAzvp_U3efLA dude shut the fuck up , we can all agree this is absolutely garbage the only redeeming quality is when the song is done look at bring me the horizon they manage to be unique especially in the new album I agree not anything had to be screaming but it’s not like Danny is gonna scream again live , but who fucking knows
I know it’s not the route they’re going anymore but Ngl, in this song could hear some parts where a low scream could just fit and add to the song. Idk if it’s just me but ye as is, it’s still a good song, just would be cool like BMTH that they just add in a mix of everything they’ve done for a track or 2
I wouldn’t call this song “metal” although it’s does have some metal aspects but I think it’s more radio rock just like how their last album sounds. I was expecting to see if Danny would test his vocal rage to make it sound more metal with some screams but it’s just a whole lot of clean versus with nothing much to it. I see how they’re trying to immerse themselves into the metalcore genre with some new elements but it’s just the verses themselves that make it less enjoyable.
Let them go be on the radio ffs the community threw them away 5 years ago. Stop pretending to like them, you’re only encouraging them to keep making mediocre shit songs.
Don't understand how anyone could not like this. Has to be the greatest thing in years from them.
after all the crap they have released, this is very good... They just need to be consistent. Considering their talent they were just lazy with previous releases.

@@somedogsarecops2354 this doesn’t deserve the title of “modern radio rock”, but ight
@@jonahchambers8905 Pretty sure it does. For me it sounds like the usual heavy rock or lighter old school metal heard on radio
It surely is the beast I heard from Them in some time, but it also isnt my taste. The Song isnt bad tho
Since Avenged Sevenfold don't want to release album yet. Asking Alexandria about to take the job🤣
I rember so much of Avenged Sevenfold while listening to this song! Haha

The main problem for me is that the intro would have deserved a reprise during the song.
Enjoyed Self-titled, disappointed by LAHOF. This seems like a step in right direction.
Fully agree! This is what the next step after the self-titled should've been. I really enjoy this sound🔥
Let's All Have Only Fans?
see I’m the opposite. I found self titled very bland with awful production, the guitars were just noise on that record
@@WarmFizzyMilk production could've been better, totally agree with that.

Absolutely.
Maybe it won’t be FDTD but it’s far better from LHOF
btw just saying that they didn’t want to make a hard rock album back in 2013. everyone but Danny wanted to make heavy music.
Nice song by A7X! Also, bro New Tallah!
nice 😂
@Call Me, BLEGH Me, If You Wanna Reach Me they've said it's likely coming out early next year. They're almost done with the album.
@Call Me, BLEGH Me, If You Wanna Reach Me Silent Planet could be November! And Cane Hill's singles are for EP collections they're doing

Great song tho.
I think so too. His range has definitely gotten higher, as first seen on the Aerosmith cover he did with Jared Dines. Not sure about nasally but I welcome the slight change.
you can find a video of the album teaser and some songs sound soooo juicy, sounds almost like a lighter RR

I've been waiting for this reaction
new album comes out on October 1st
The last Asking Alexandria reaction vid I saw was you talking shit about the song “Down to Hell” and now here you are loving Asking Alexandria.
Down to Hell would've been much better without that 'na na na" part
Have u heard Vildhjarta?
imo their masterpiece was "The black" the stuff they've released after that album is cool but kinda weak.
Instrument wise, banger as fuck but the verses dont mesh well. Chorus is good
My god they sound so much better then theyre last album
I think this album is gonna be a follow up of LAHOF , just a better progression in my opinion
Old and new, the best of the both worlds 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Where is kostolom reaction?
I'm all for this sound
songs great, ive been a fan since the beginning and hate how people hating on this. this shit slaps.
Like I get Danny doesn't want to scream and that's fine but you can still be metal without screams. Liked the song though.
There are screams in the new album btw. If you look at Danny's insta, he's sharing people's stories that show teasers of the songs on the album.
@_DannyPhantom_ absolutely. But there were virtual no screams on that album. In just the teasers itself there were screams in multiple songs
I really really enjoyed this and even though it still has their newer sound, just the production and variety instrumentally makes this sound sooo much better than their last album

The solo was alittle A7X!
They’re releasing a new album because they signed to a new label
I absolutely love this song, honestly it's just a friendly reminder how talented they all are. Can't wait to see the album!
That certainly wasn't bad
I was pleasantly surprised by this. It still felt a bit off to me, but it's a good song regardless and I've had it on repeat for most of the week it's been out (until new Whitechapel dropped lmao). I'm excited for the full album, it's looking promising with the snippets from their IG filter.
Reminds me of avenged sevenfold tbh, (the instrumentals)
As I said in the comments section of MetalBirb’s reaction: This sounds like AA’s take on Avenged Sevenfold’s take on Metallica
In a year where it seems some bands are returning to a more 'roots' style, it would have been nice to see AA do the same.
Danny's already stated he doesn't want to. I believe he did a pretty brutal clip on Instagram and said that something like "Just because I don't want to, doesn't mean I can't."
It was fun i guess
Please react to ”Amnesia” by Agonize The Serpent
Did enjoy. Not really a listener of AA in he first place so I just like whatever and don't get caught up in if it's like that band. Some people don't think about it like that but for some things if you do you'll start to enjoy more things
from what i remember this is their heaviest song in two albums right? i’m not too familiar with AA‘s last two albums
Into the fire has a gnarly breakdown too
And don’t forget they are not on Sumerian records anymore
glad sam found the other bass pedal
A7X is that you? :o
Asking Sevenfold? Avenged Alexandria?
