Asking Alexandria Songs Ranked

Asking Alexandria is a British rock band from York, North Yorkshire, consisting of guitarists Ben Bruce and Cameron Liddell, drummer James Cassells, lead vocalist Danny Worsnop, and bassist Sam Bettley. Initially formed in 2006 by Ben Bruce, the band officially established as a six-piece in 2008 with the founding line-up consisting of Bruce, Worsnop, Cassells, Liddell, Joe Lancaster, and Ryan Binns. After the departure of Lancaster and Binns, as well as the recruitment of bassist Sam Bettley in 2009, the band released their debut album Stand Up and Scream (2009). The band released two studio albums Reckless & Relentless (2011) and From Death to Destiny (2013), before the departure of Worsnop in January 2015. He was replaced by Denis Stoff and the band released The Black (2016). Stoff departed from the band in October that year, and Worsnop subsequently returned to the band. The band released their self-titled fifth album in late 2017, which was a marked stylistic departure from their previous works.

20. A Lesson Never Learned (Reckless & Relentless, 2011)

“This song is just awesome, pure gold. It’s really hard to choose, when seriously every single song by them is great, but this one, for me personally won. The intro is simply amazing… Only if it is a bit longer…”

19. White Line Fever (From Death to Destiny, 2013)

“By far Danny’s best clean vocals. It really suits his voice’s new style and in my opinion, is one of Asking’s best songs. The best song ever, the first song I ever listened and instantly fell in love with AA

18. I Used to Have a Best Friend (But Then He Gave Me an STD) (Stand Up and Scream, 2009)

“I think this song is about a girl pretending to like him, but he thinks she actually does cause that’s what she wanted him to think. but he eventually found out she was lying and he feels stupid for believing it and for missing her”

17. Killing You (From Death to Destiny, 2013)

“Love it! The first time I heard this song my heart was in the mosh pit with the rest of my internal organs! Amazing song. The Guitars and Drums are just great! Really underrated.”

16. I Won’t Give In (The Black, 2016)

“Although I think the song could be about a broken relationship, I feel it’s more so about the unspoken communication between God and a person struggling to get through life. I feel as if the main chorus is God speaking to the person.. “Every breath you take, I watch you slip away..” They feel as if God has left them and see no hope. “If my soul was torn would you help? Would you try and fix me?””

15. When Everyday’s the Weekend (Stand Up and Scream, 2009)

“This song has the best electronicore piece by them! Love it! The guitar riffs are amazing, as are Danny’s vocals. Also, you can’t beat the drumming of this song, nor can you beat the bass.”

14. Dear Insanity (Reckless & Relentless, 2011)

“I personally think it’s about how he is a different man/insane man when he is drinking or on drugs…kinda like the rest of the album, and how it’s hard for him to get back from those ways “Don’t wake me up, their songs are soothing, Their wine subdues me””

13. Alone in a Room (Asking Alexandria, 2017)

“I love the studio version of this song, but I find the acoustic version even more effective. The lyrics capture the challenge that confronts any committed artist as well as the inherent isolation that artistic expression demands. And the band employs just the right degree of restraint to make the track especially moving.”

12. Breathless (Reckless & Relentless 2011)

“Definitely their best song, honestly, none of them even come close, except A Lesson Never Learned. Riffs, vocals just so great. Really great job on vocals from Danny, must say, breakdown sounds the bloody same as about 3000 other metalcore songs, but that’s with pretty much every -core band today.”

11. To the Stage (Reckless & Relentless 2011)

“Amazing song. Explains how a guy messed up his girlfriend with drugs and stuff. He was in control of her and now apologizes for what he did to her. The first song I’ve ever heard that shows how REAL life is.”

10. The Black (The Black, 2016)

“This song just has so much energy. Denis did what every true fan wanted, he took AA back to the roots, with his own unique twist. No more 80s rock ‘n roll, this is the metal we wanted. This song is awesome, plus the electronic influence in the chorus is sweet.”

9. Run Free (From Death to Destiny, 2013)

“First time listening this song, I was curious and accidently click the Official Video in Youtube. The Song, MAN, its very clean. Between the Hard rock and slow vocal, its pretty amazing. The last part of this song is very romantic, just like how you tell your Girlfriend to Run Free, you’re not alone and don’t be afraid.”

8. A Candlelit Dinner with Inamorta (Stand Up and Scream, 2009)

“One of the best breakdowns I have ever heard. A combination of genres is just pure genius. It’s intro by growling is one of the best ever heard. It shows the metal spirit in them…”

7. Moving On (From Death to Destiny, 2013)

“This should be higher on the list, it is my favorite Asking Alexandria song and it has a deep meaning. It gives me comfort in knowing if the situation get too tough I can just move on.”

6. Someone, Somewhere (Reckless & Relentless, 2011)

“I just love this song because I do believe that there is someone, somewhere out there for me. I’m into screamo and heavy metal and rock but out of all the songs I love this song the most. “Even though I’m on my own, ” know I’m no alone. Cause’ I know there’s someone, somewhere praying I’ll make it home.” I mean it is heart warming that there is someone somewhere…”

5. Closure (Reckless & Relentless, 2011)

“Yeah the final episode is amazing but its just missing that edge now as lets face it, it gets quite repetitive after a while, but with the release of this album is when people really started to take notice of Asking Alexandria, this song is so inspirational and speaks truth’s with lyrics full of hope, Danny’s screams are amazing as always, when the synth kicks in it gives me the chills.. Best song on the album by far with morte et dabo just behind it. “

4. The Death of Me (From Death to Destiny, 2013)

“This may be a new song, but this definitely deserves to be in the top 5 at least. Danny’s vocals are phenomenal, Ben and Cameron were fantastic, and James. They’ve all said it themselves, James has the most raw talent in the band. He did absolutely incredible. And I haven’t even started on the meaning of the lyrics yet. The song AND album title are both very clever, not something I would think of.”

3. Not the American Average (Stand Up and Scream, 2009)

“I love this song so much. It was the song that got me into this kind of music because my friend was listening to it and I’d only ever listened to the charts before and I fell in love with the song as soon as I heard it. It means a lot to me because it has made me who I am today.”

2. A Prophecy (Stand Up and Scream, 2009)

“Asking Alexandria have several brilliant songs, but A Prophecy is definitely the best. Run Free may have the most positive message, and The Final Episode may be the heaviest, but A Prophecy has the most incredible melody and atmosphere, and is the most special. Number 1 on this list for sure.”

1. The Final Episode (Let’s Change the Channel) (Stand Up and Scream, 2009)

“This song is just the best, the screaming and singing go hand in hand as the track makes you angry yet you feel a great deal of satisfaction from it! This song introduced me to Asking Alexandria, so I must thank it for making one of my life’s greatest discoveries. Oh and the guitar us sick, yeah.”
