Hello everyone,

by now we all know that Asking Alexandria has a new vocalist Denis Stoff (Shaforostov) because Worsnop left in in early 2015 to focus on his other band. But honestly I am glad it happened. There are two reason 1.) AA was becoming a rock band. 2.) We all could see he was no longer dedicated to the band.

Shaforostov brought new light to the band. I agree that vocaly he is not exactly where Worsnop was. Worsnop could do gutturals and pig squels while I never heard Denis do that BUT musically he is very well skilled. So far what I heard I loved. He is perfect for metalcore. Now onto The Black

The Black is Asking Alexandria´s new song as well as the title of their upcoming album that will come out in March. The song itself I fell in love with. There is this new passion from the musicians. New agression and energy radiates from this song as well as from I won´t give in and Undived. I am really excited. It kind off makes me remember Reckless and Relentless from 2011 which I am glad. Asking Alexandria to me is metalcore. Not Rock, Deathcore or pure metal. No they are Metalcore.

Check out their work with Shaforostov.
