Asking Alexandria have dropped their new sing 'I Won't Give In' with new singer Denis Shaforostov, the first hint of new music since their former vocalist Danny Worsnop left earlier this year. Watch the video below.
It seems Dennis was the perfect for this band, and has since been writing for Asking Alexandria's next album, "I had this gut feeling, man; I totally felt something big was going to happen right before the guys reached out to me" he told this week's issue of Kerrang! magazine. "It's crazy. Honestly, I've never been waiting for such an opportunity to ever knock at my door but, as the same time, I was always ready for it."
"Without a doubt, I was extremely stoked and I poured all of my emotions into the writing for the new Asking Alexandria record."

According to guitarist Ben Bruce, fans already had an inkling that their new member would be the old Make Me Famous singer. "Everyone guessed it was Denis, and I think they did so because they know Denis was the right choice to make. He's an incredibly talented vocalist, from the multiple wide range of screams that Asking Alexandria obviously needs and will continue to have, and his singing and range is out of this world."
"He's been a fan of the band for a long time, so he's familiar with all our old songs, and he really cares about the band. He's a passionate, cool guy; it's the perfect scenario."
Danny Worsnop announced his departure from Asking Alexandria on January 22, and he said in a statement, "Over the last eight years together, we've done some amazing things and created something truly special. I now, same as then, want what's best for the band and at this point in time, that isn't me. Asking Alexandria will continue to tour throughout the year and will be working on a new album."
Danny Worsnop is focusing on his new band We Are Harlot who released their debut album end of March, and Asking Alexandria can be seen in the states on The Vans Warped Tour.
