Metalcore or Country? What is AA’s New Genre? - Asking Alexandria “Bad Blood” “Psycho”

[@annkain4766]

Humanity will become smarter when it stops waiting for Reckless And Relentless 2

[@codycollier1812]

FOR REAL! I didn’t care for the last 2 records but I loved LP5, I respect them for making what they like and want. But this record. OoooooooooooDADDY DANNYYYYYYYYY!!!!

[@aggaming5334]

Fucking facts!!!

[@enzojesusaguileraaros6169]

i love the 2 new songs, man the change in song of a other

[@MooSmith]

The whole album is an absolute bop tbh 🔥🔥🔥

[@taehyunglee1626]

I'm a drummer and I often learn their songs, and bad blood IS JUST LIKE "HOLY SHIT I DON'T HAVE LEGS ANYMORE" but IT'S SO EXPLOSIVE that I'm willing to sacrifice my legs

[@ittscammm]

my jaw was dropped the whole time i listened to them when it dropped, i wasn’t expecting to like Pyscho AT ALL but now i’m calling it my 2023 anthem and Bad Blood like my head quite literally exploded when i listened. and don’t get me started on James drumming 🤯🤤 he is in my opinion outshining the others in these singles and i’m not complaining one bit, i’m so excited for this new record 💛

[@MikeGeeezyy]

For sure. Drums goin' offf

[@aussiewheelz2538]

They can do no wrong. Loving these new releases.

[@MooSmith]

They are so good!!

[@EssiSixxMusic]

This reaction was a rollercoaster and I am here for it

[@DanielRodriguez-ey6bw]

The one they teased at the end of Dark Void was called “Nothing Left” !

[@MooSmith]

Welll slap me silly! You’re so right!! Whoops 🪿

[@WxB2001]

"I feel like the vocals aren't heavy enough for what the drums are doing". That perfectly sums up Danny and his reluctance to do screams anymore

[@demonicflame66]

To be fair. Would you want to scream if you tore your vocal cord?

[@LordVader207]

Pretty insane...curious to see their whole album...

[@MooSmith]

Ikr!!! Me too!! So good to have them back 🖤

[@LordVader207]

@@MooSmith stupid question but is it just me or every other legend coming back for 2023?

[@MooSmith]

@@LordVader207 not stupid at all!!! I assume the “cough-vacation” push us to go back and listen to our old emo band favs again, & others who were at home bored, discovered it for the first time too!! 🤗 so then market now is a lot bigger than it was 4/5 years ago 🤷‍♀️

[@engelberthbernalvillanueva6585]

autentic reaction in bad blood, is gold.

[@chrissouth998]

Bad Blood hits so hard. It gave me Goosebumps. Turn up to 11

[@GRIEFDRUMS]

I LOVED this video because it perfectly encapsulated the way I felt about the 2 tracks 😂

[@MatthewRunaway]

Bring on the country metal! 💪🏻

[@Rigatonyc]

Listen, no matter what Asking Alexandria puts out it’s gold !! as a musician. I think it was put together both songs very well. I’m also digging the little techno vibes in the first song.

[@MooSmith]

I agree, Asking very rarely is a miss for me, it’s been a week now and I LOVE both tracks 🖤 soooo excited for the new record 🔥🔥🔥

[@brandonbruggemann01]

Yoooo loving Asking Alexandra's new realeases

[@Sikthy]

Psycho seems more there radio friendly song but bad blood is a beast of a song loved it great reactions

[@thefourthwritedjentleman3643]

Archspire are coming to Australia inOctober I found out yesterday

[@tobivalentin9922]

First time watching your channel! Amazing and funny😂

[@GodfatherBurr]

This is amazing 😂 10/10 reaction

[@bastianlopez458]

Instrumentally this is their best! Bad blood is great 😮

[@Thorment07]

This is a whole mood. Those edits are a Solid 10/10 and funny! Thanks For Sharing this vibe with us ❤ new stuff IS cool and Dont we all Missing our Cowboy Danny Scream 😅

[@mrvenomshot7080]

I’m telling you headbangs and stick faces galore in bad blood

[@WeAreTheUniverse78]

These new songs are really special. They Just write killer tunes. Heavy or not. Can't wait for the whole album!

[@MuttonTinTin]

Bad blood is what we should have got first instead of Dark Void (even though I love that song 😅)

[@Brandon2940]

Actually I disagree, Dark Void is a great song but I feel like if Bad Blood came first and then Dark Void after it I wouldn't have been too impressed

[@muhamadfachry5247]

This song so fucking good & this album make me so fucking hype because asking alexandria is back to heavy again my favorite track is nothing left because this song is amazing i love it 🤘🔥🔥🔥

[@thefourthwritedjentleman3643]

Both are bangers - Gday from Brisbane AUS

[@sayurimmiranda]

danny is just metalcore patrick stump now

[@chrismabbitt7162]

Psycho caught me off guard Honestly really digging it even thought it's not what I expected from them lol Also in the new interviews the band has said this record is gonna have a bit of everything and have a darker feel

[@bastianlopez458]

I'm getting the same feeling as well. I also hear a lot of the self titled experimental and reckless and death to destiny heaviness.

[@Chilli_FPS]

When Ben said there were blast beats in an interview i knew we were getting sometbing brutal

[@jmurray2018]

Finally found a channel that plays intelligent fire

[@Colt6661]

Pressing sub has never been so easy.

[@stephaneguevremont8690]

lol loved your reactions :D

[@Chizuru94]

Same reactions I had, yay :D Also, your editing and humor and reactions are so good! Subscribed! And a fellow Sleep Token enjoyer, it seems? THta's just a bonus! Worship

[@maddienight732]

And subscribed.

[@MooSmith]

Thank you 😭🙏🏻

[@michaelb7301]

I think with the new stuff Danny and the band want to go back to the roots, both Ben and Danny have said that the screaming he used to do damaged his vocals so bad that he can't even replicate any of the old screams, I love this new stuff, but I dont't see him pushing to hard past what he is giving us screaming wise, because if he does on the album then he can't do it live, people will complain about that. I saw a video of Ben talking about doing the older songs and him stating they tried pumping the screaming tracks in because Danny just can't do them anymnore and everyone hated they did that, dammed if you do, dammed if you don't situation, but honestly this album was great I loved it, I just want Danny in a good space to keep making music!

[@razrhiannaspiers8506]

If you would like to react to an artist you might not have heard of before, I recommend Aesthetic Perfection with the song Gods & Gold. They’ve worked with members of Rammstein!

[@sampearson2369]

What is your favourite asking song?

[@LP004]

I thought Psycho was a bit iffy, not too bad, Bad Blood was amazing, certainly a bit of a throwback to their early stuff Btw your reactions are wacky as fuck and adorable, I love it.

[@MuhammadFirmansyah-c5f]

My request Deadsquad that’s cool to

[@Nightstalker102]

Sleep is for the weak and we will never rest

[@thebuckethatguy]

Just gonna say you’d change your mind about clean vocals over heavy ass beater instrumentals if you heard Comethazine by Atlvs!

[@drnkds]

Bring back old school AA!

[@engelberthbernalvillanueva6585]

the voice of danny is good, i don't have none dudaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[@OneThousandDemons]

I think i agree, if it were a different band, i don't think I'd like it as much lol but i do love Asking Alexandria so I'll still listen

[@Luka-ty4qr]

HOLY SHIT Bad Blood slapped

[@williamlambert]

does everyone want danny to damage his vocal cords again i have no problem if he never does screams a whole song again, but i will say this made really happy

[@Jmarden97]

I personally want him to scream or just leave the band tbh….. so in a way yes id rather have the band give us what we want or find a mew vocalist tbh

[@jonatasn_]

meu deus obrigado por esse vídeo, ficamos do mesmo jeito escutando essas músicas kkkk obrigado 🖤

[@raynnerryan]

Maaaan, Dark Void and Bad Blood are fucking heavy for sure, just don't have little screams all time in the song like the past 🤷‍♂️ . And Psycho it's really good, catchy as fuck!

[@andydobson2905]

This reaction 😂😂

[@RafaelMouramagalhaes-z7t]

Hard rock melódico, metalcore e heavy metal moderno

[@briancs96]

Psycho gave me Fall Out Boys vibes, not my style honestly... The last album I loved was "from death to destiny", but some singles from "The black" are cool as well

[@emkii1640]

Never paid attention to this band, but this song(Bad Blood) slaps. Also the chorus sums up my overall music taste somehow xD If i have ti explain what i like, i'll show them this song^^

[@codycollier1812]

Remember when people said Danny couldn’t scream anymore? Yeah he said. LOL HI HOW ARE YA😅!

[@RAINoftheSEA]

The Drums were so Heavy on Psycho compared to the Vocals wtf

[@danieljensen2626]

Psycho kinda sounds like if Fall Out Boy decided to go heavy. Which tbh I'd be all over.

[@danieljensen2626]

Actually after giving it a listen by myself the verses kinda sound like Maroon 5 too.

[@OrangUtanItuForestans-IQ97]

when Devil 😈 got exorsized by Angel 😇, like "now you are Angel, ( instead of Devil )." --- shocking me hard! 🤨 such "who tf am I?!" Asking alexandria be.

[@theazza2328]

See, there's too many sub genres now, like, I've within the last year got into murdercore, so bridge city sinners and amigo the devil are covered under that, but it verges the same way

[@NickSibz]

I cant get into Psycho at all. The instrumentals want the vocals to be heavy so badly with light verses IMO. Bad Blood though, if the whole album had that vibe, I'm in. A bit of a heavier Self Titled album vibe. I wish Danny would give us more of the heavier material we all desperately want.

[@rubenerstrom8059]

Its not bad songs, i dark void was a solid song to. But i wouldnt put them in the playlist. Im to addicted to screaming tbh.

[@thomaseddison]

But.. I like Bad Blood Songs🖤

[@kothb123]

New genre.... industrial agriculture.

[@EgorZA82]

Your about says Australia but you sound South African??

[@rangerman9241]

This is some justin temberlake sounding bubblegum

[@zombiecharger65]

What drives me nuts is that people want one of the best vocalist in all of heavy music to do the shitty cookie monster style that he used to do instead of letting him use his amazing range of styles. It's called dynamics and the boys have finally shown how good they are at it. I love the last few records. The first two, can't really stomach them anymore. I'm 40 now, I don't want to hear metalcore anymore. I want great hooks and brutal guitars but not constant high pitched screaming.

[@LilComedown]

You're cute I subscribed for sure Arent these new Asking songs great? I love the soft stuff and the heavy stuff! And I'm with you idrc what they play I just love the BOYS always will favorite band since 2008 when the demo came out on myspace lol

[@themopardad]

First song kinda sucked...second song however absolutely slaps

[@Allyourbase1990]

After their second album I stopped listening . Reckless and relentless was by far the best album . I hate the way they are now

[@IvanSierra-vv3ie]

It's ridiculous that they call country everything that isn't metalcore that Asking Alexandria does just because Ben said it, have their own criteria not like this posser who only wants to listen to gutturals for 3 minutes 🙄

[@jasenarmstrong4467]

Definitely not country

[@rangerman9241]

This is some justin temberlake sounding bubblegum
