I can still remember the first time seeing Asking Alexandria perform live. We had been following them for a while and couldn’t wait for them to play in the Bay Area in San Jose, CA in December 2011 on the tour with Avenged Sevenfold. We have loved seeing this band evolve and their music hit new levels with each album. Well they are set to release their eighth full-length studio album WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE? this fall via Better Noise Music. The music scene has never felt so alive!
They have recently released their latest single, Psycho and you are going to love it.
Ben Bruce comments on the song,
‘Psycho’ is one of those songs that is talking about when you feel trapped inside your own head, trapped by your own vices and your own downfalls. Whether it’s being stuck in a relationship that doesn’t work for you, or feeling like you can’t stop drinking or doing drugs, or maybe you’re stuck in a job that you hate, and you’re just battling yourself in your own head wondering ‘why am I still here? Why do I keep doing these things?’. Ultimately, at the end of the day we all feel a little bit crazy…a little bit like a Psycho. It’s just a fun song that we can all relate to, and stylistically we thought to ourselves ‘how do we make a song that sounds like it could live on the ‘Like A House On Fire’ album, but also like it could live on the ‘From Death to Destiny’ album?’. So musically, from a writing standpoint, it was a really enjoyable experience to meld those two eras of Asking Alexandria together and see what that might look like.”
