This week Asking Alexandria surprised by announcing that former frontman Danny Worsnop was rejoining the band and now it’s emerged that they even surprised Worsnop’s band We Are Harlot.
Worsnop started We Are Harlot back in 2011 and they released their debut, self-titled record last year after Worsnop announced his departure from Asking Alexandria.
The relationship between Worsnop and We Are Harlot now looks shaky with the remaining band members revealing that they found out about the news when the public did.
The band took to Facebook to say that they were “blindsided” by Worsnops news.
“We saw and heard bits of things but found out in about the same way you all did,” they wrote.
They further explained that most bands are doing what they can in this industry to “survive” and make money, with the decision making sense from a business point of view.
“Everything that is happening now is fully understandable from behind the curtains.”
Despite this, they noted that they’re not going to act like “victims” in all of this and although they are unsure of the exact future of the band they promised fans that they will not be “sidelined”.
“At this point we will wait to see what happens and we will keep our fingers crossed along with all of you.”
When Worsnop announced that he was rejoining Asking Alexandria he said, “I’m working on the new We Are Harlot record,” and the band seconded that, telling fans to expect a new record in February.
For now, it seems that Worsnop will juggle both bands but there is definitely some bad blood between him and his We Are Harlot bandmates right now.
A fan named Trent commented on their Facebook post saying, “motherfucker needs to stop fuckin around, you know,” and the band responded, “Trent for President!!”
