British rock luminaries Asking Alexandria shared a Wombat-directed music video for their song “Let Go”. The track is taken from the band’s new album “Where Do We Go From Here?”, which was released today (Friday, August 25) via Better Noise Music.
On the LP, Asking Alexandria — Danny Worsnop (vocals), Ben Bruce (lead guitar), Cameron Liddell (guitar), Sam Bettley (bass), and James Cassells (drums) — offer reverence to touchstone icons like Led Zeppelin, AC/DC and Queen, with a relentless urgency harkening back to their early days as hard-partying Warped Tour upstarts. It’s available now via digital download or physically on CD, cassette, or multiple color vinyl.
“‘Let Go’ is one of my favorite songs we’ve ever written,” exclaims Bruce. “It’s a powerful anthem about finding your own peace within yourself and being able to walk away and ‘let go’ of a past relationship. Life has hurdles for us all to jump over. It’s how we grow and how we learn and become stronger, and this song is about leaping over one of those hurdles we all face.”

The 11-track album was produced and mixed by Matt Good (Hollywood Undead, From First To Last), and mastered by Howie Weinberg (Deftones, Metallica) and Will Borza. The album is a culmination of the band’s career, melding their flagship sound with experimental electronics while its lyrics cover the band’s trademark themes of disenchantment, loss, anxiety, and dejection.
“‘Where Do We Go From Here?’ Is the culmination of our entire journey as a band,” shares lead guitarist Ben Bruce. “We worked really hard to incorporate every aspect of what our fans love about ASKING ALEXANDRIA. We have taken elements from every single record we have ever written and pieced them all together to create one album. Our fans will find elements from ‘Stand Up and Scream,’ such as the synth-tinged breakdown on ‘Things Could Be Different,’ all the way through to ‘See What’s On The Inside’ on this album. Lyrically, the album explores themes of loss and struggle through to hope and finding your own inner strength. We are incredibly proud of this album, and we can’t wait for everyone to hear it.”
