Sep 7, 2014

The English band, Asking Alexandria, latest single is entitled "Moving On" and it is from their From Death To Destiny album via Sumerian Records. This rock ballad got a huge showcase over the summer as the band played it during their main stage run on the Mayhem Festival. The album sold 41,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to land at position No. 5 on The Billboard 200 chart.
Asking Alexandria guitarist Ben Bruce says, "For the first time in our careers, we are showcasing ourselves in the most sincere light possible. No drugs, no partying, no script and no bullshit. It's just the five of us completely vulnerable. No matter what the circumstance, being away from those you love and care about is very difficult and drags you down. Luckily for us, we have incredible fans that love and support us and help us through our toughest times."
They were founded in North Yorkshire in 2008, when Ben Bruce contacted his old companions after returning to the UK after living in Dubai. The current line-up of the group consists of Ben Bruce (lead guitar), Danny Worsnop (vocals), Cameron Liddell (rhythm guitar), Sam Bettley (bass guitar) and James Cassells (drums).
Asking Alexandria have a busy tour scheduled for the Fall throughout Europe. They toured as direct support to Korn and began 2014 embarking on the Soundwave Festival tour of Australia, alongside Green Day, Avenged Sevenfold, Alice In Chains and A Day To Remember.
