This is confusing, he's a member or not? After Ben left the band, a few things became noticeable. For example, they didn’t announce anything beyond a story mentioning his departure. They haven’t changed their profile picture, Ben is still in it, and they don’t take new photos to update things anymore. Maybe it’s due to a lack of time, as Danny mentioned in the interview, saying that everyone has kids now. Sam just moved to England, while the others are in the United States. It’s confusing, but you can tell that the band really is just another day at the office for them now. I think we, the fans, just didn’t want to believe it, but it was obvious. Anyways.... Well, I have to say I still love Asking Alexandria, and I also like Danny's solo work, what he does is really solid. But it saddens me to know that the band has become just another day at the office. It seems like the fun isn’t there anymore, maybe the passion remains only in creating music, but not in going on tours. I enjoy both their old and new songs, but when Ben left, it kind of lost focus, you know? Still, I respected Ben's decision, and nowadays he seems much happier from what I see on Instagram. Maybe at some point, we, the fans, didn’t realize that the band had become just a job for them. It’s kind of sad. But what can we do? I still listen to them, though not as much as before. These days, I prefer other bands, but I still have a huge fondness for them. It’s sad, man, but it is what it is. We just got to respect and be thankful for what they have done. It's a good interview btw, great job man, keep doing!
I think this is one of the best comments we’ve ever gotten on a video. Like you can tell you watched it and paid attention during not just a video in passing. Thanks for that! We’ve interviewed Danny a few times and I think he will always be the face of AA. Like they tried replacing him and it just didn’t work. But I agree with you, the band has become just another day in the office to them. As musicians touring the world is what your dream about, but once you’ve done it a few times and you shift to having families it’s hard. I think given the members being spread out like they now, and families. You’ll see things being more selective. Their name still carries wait as a mid level act on festival and they can still pull as a headliner for clubs, so wouldn’t surprise me. Thanks for watching and please subscribe if you haven’t.
So is Danny a member of Asking or not? How has he never rejoined the band if he’s literally put out four albums with them since he came back in 2016? I’m so confused.
Because he wants to have the right to do whatever he wants go on tour with asking fine don't go and record or release anything else with his name on no problem if he was on contract nothing of this will happen contracts have some restrictions now his free doing what the hell he wants when he wants.
@@Lemordison92 contracts are negotiable and when it comes to the music BUSINESS, Danny isn’t dumb. I know he learned a lot after being signed with Sumerian and dealing with Ash for 11 years. Danny at this point comes off wishy-washy and it seems very frustrating for the camp in general.
Just validates my point even more Danny shouldn’t have returned. His passion isn’t there anymore. He has ruined AA and he’s not the same man that everyone loved from 08 - 13
It'd be cool if they don't hire him for the next tour and the next and the next. Just do what Brian Willson did and not tour with the Beach Boys but still make the music for the band behind the scenes.
Dont wanna be a downer, but not a very good interviewer, monotone, not great questions within a very question driven conversation, very fidgety, not instigating actual interesting conversation, please dont pay this guy

Well, this was kinda depressing. This makes more sense why Ben left.

Ouch, I mean that 2016 album and early touring was good tho. But ever since then yeah pretty bad.
Why are you giving a musician shit for his voice when he's been screaming since '08
What were the bands Danny listed that he listens to? I caught Stapleton, Adele, and Luke Combs?
Adele, Teddy Swims, John Mayer, Chris Stapleton, Luke Combs
So he thinks of Asking as just a paycheck and not his passion
I think his passion is on making music. Going on tour probably just feels like a job for him
A side hustle
Agreed shouldn’t have rejoined
@@ThePartyyChat they’re happy playing the music that they play now
@@mesaskater424 no they aren’t lmao . None of them are happy don’t be delusional
Did he lose his British accent?
He lost some of it. Hes been in America for like 13 years
It'd be cool if they don't hire him for the next tour and the next and the next. Just do what Brian Willson did and not tour with the Beach Boys but still make the music for the band behind the scenes.

WTH. Danny is not I’m asking?
Asking Alexandria is just a job bruh get a another job then
