The huge size of the following for York born post-hardcore act Asking Alexandria is hard to ignore. With a mere two full-length albums under their belt, the band have already managed several sold out tours on both side of the Atlantic, including this current one within the UK. At their sold out date of the Academy venue in Manchester, we decided to swing by and catch their set along with support acts, Betraying The Martyrs, Motionless In White and While She Sleeps. Here are some shots of the action that night:

As such, this monster is barely alive.
