In May, Asking Alexandria released an alternate version of their song “Faded Out,” featuring contributions from Sharon Den Adel of Within Temptation. According to Blabbermouth, the song will appear on the soundtrack of the film The Retaliators this fall.

The band dropped an EP called Never Gonna Learn earlier this year. The title was derived from the second single off their acclaimed 2021 album See What’s on the Inside, which debuted on Spotify’s top 10 in the US as well as the UK upon release. They also recently released a song with Maria Brink from In This Moment.

Though Asking Alexandria will not be able to complete their tour across the United States, their presence in the music industry remains felt and appreciated. It’s a matter of time before they bounce back and pick up right where they left off.
