Asking Alexandria es una banda británica de metalcore que surgió en York, Inglaterra, en 2008. Fundada por el guitarrista Ben Bruce, la historia de la banda se inicia cuando Bruce, inicialmente con otro proyecto del mismo nombre en Dubái, decide retornar al Reino Unido. Allí, conoce a los miembros que conformarían la versión definitiva de Asking Alexandria: el vocalista Danny Worsnop, el bajista Cameron Liddell, el guitarrista James Cassells y el baterista Sam Bettley.
El debut de la banda fue marcado por su primer álbum, “Stand Up and Scream”, lanzado en 2009. Este disco demostró ser una mezcla intensa de elementos de synthcore y metalcore, ganando rápidamente una sólida base de seguidores debido a sus enérgicas actuaciones en vivo y los potentes temas como “The Final Episode (Let’s Change the Channel)” y “A Prophecy”.

En 2011, la banda lanzó su segundo álbum, “Reckless & Relentless”. Este disco continuó con la energía y agresividad del primero, pero mostró una madurez en las letras y en la destreza musical.

Sometimes I think about the old days, remember where we came from
Reflect on what it took for us to make it this far
From dreaming in a parking lot, wasting away
To seas of faces, social status, and a sense of victory in my heart
Don't blink, you'll miss what's coming next
Can you feel it in your chest?
It's gonna be beautiful
Say what you want about us, when's it ever slowed us down?
With a little bit of faith, a lot of patience
We turned this could be into something amazing
And I know what's gonna be
We had a lot of dreams, a little bit of godsend
Never could've dreamed where life would take us back then
And I know what's gonna be
Sometimes I think about the future, imagine how it's gonna feel
To picture everything we've dreamed of coming to pass
Got high ambitions and we're gonna be forever chasing destiny
Manifesting more than we could ever conceive
Don't blink, you'll miss what's coming next
Can you feel it in your chest?
It's gonna be beautiful
Say what you want about us, when's it ever slowed us down?
With a little bit of faith, a lot of patience
We turned this could be into something amazing
And I know what's gonna be
We had a lot of dreams, a little bit of godsend
Never could've dreamed where life would take us back then
And I know what's gonna be
Well, the time's come to lay it all on the line and grow
Into something more than we had ever seen
We've waited all our lives for this day to come
For it to all to pay off and become the sum of what we have worked to be
With a little bit of faith, a lot of patience
We turned this could be into something amazing
And I know what's gonna be
We had a lot of dreams, a little bit of godsend
Never could've dreamed where life would take us back then
And I know what's gonna be
And I know what's gonna be
And I know what's gonna be, what's gonna be
