Irving Plaza
Asking Alexandria is hitting up Irving Plaza this October, so get ready New York City. The kings of metalcore are back and better than ever with their latest album, Where Do We Go From Here?, and they’re performing at venues all over the country as part of their All My Friends Tour. Tickets for their Irving Plaza stint are available now, grab 'em while you can.
One of the most significant acts of the early 2010s metalcore scene was none other than Asking Alexandria. After a few failed attempts in the form of EPs, the band was completely reinvented with new members and released their debut album in 2009. Stand Up and Scream was monumental to mainstream metal at the time with its different approach of using electronic elements mixed with screams that would pioneer the emerging screamo genre. To this day, there’s no one like them. To see what I mean, get tickets to see them at Irving Plaza this fall. You know you want to.
Asking Alexandria may be a metal band, but they take influence from all over the place. With each album, the band has matured their energetic sound and only gotten better. But looking back, each one of their studio albums has an entirely different feel to it; some are more metalcore or screamo while others feel 80s rock inspired. Whatever sound they try on, the band has a signature feel that makes you instantly recognize them regardless of how new or different in style. They’re just that band - perfectly authentic to themselves while taking inspiration from the hardest acts in metal history. Wanna see them in action, metalhead? Well, you’re in luck. They’re coming to Irving Plaza in NYC this fall, so now’s your chance. Snatch up these tickets before someone else does.
With their latest album, Where Do We Go From Here, Asking Alexandria proves once again that they can do anything. They’ve been cited as having a mostly metalcore sound with influences from hard rock, heavy metal, and post-hardcore, but this album takes on a more melodic metalcore approach rather than their screamo roots. Their eighth studio album was met with positive critical reception, with many reviewers noting that the band seems to be taking a harder approach to their music once again. This couldn’t be more spot on; Where Do We Go From Here is dynamic and electric, and an essential new record for any self-respecting metal fan. While it is something completely different, fans of their old material will love it all the same. And if you care to see it performed live, the band is headed down to NYC as part of their All My Friends Tour. So, get going - tickets are on sale now.
Asking Alexandria have been in a state of constant evolution ever since the release of their debut studio album, Stand Up and Scream, and they’re far from done. Released in 2023, their newest album is the most heavy, intense stuff the band has done in years. Their electric stage presence and iconic metalcore both new and old makes for an intoxicating live performance that they’re bringing all across the country. Get tickets to the All My Friends tour in New York City - don’t miss out.
