Alcohol/Drugs
Danny has had an incident in Seattle where he pushed his limits before the show and drank too much. At one point, guitarist Ben Bruce took to the microphone and said, “Let’s do a vote right fuckin’ now. Who prefers Danny the way he is [now]? That’s like three people.” Worsnop began to interrupt, but Bruce said, “Ignore him. Who here will support us in putting my best friend through rehab and making him better?” As the crowd cheered, Bruce said, “Thank you so fuckin’ much. Fuck you, Danny. Ignore everything he says. Thank you for supporting us. Who here wants us to play another song—despite Danny?”

The following day Danny got on his twitter and tweeted: "I'm a fucking idiot. I should never blame my actions on my relapses but tonight made me realize I have a problem. I for the first time in my life want to fix myself. I now know what regret is! I apologize from the bottom of my heart. Hopefully I grow to have some sort of compassion to myself, I live for self destruction and that's wrong. Nothing changes when you're killing yourself with poison. I love you all. And I hope you can forgive me. I officially am quitting drugs and getting drunk here and now. I want to clean up and sort my fucking life out. I'll never stop hating myself until I stop killing myself. Thank you all for standing by me. If any R&R shows get canceled, I'm away fixing Myself. I hope you understand."

Danny went to rehab which helped him finally kick his drinking and drugs and is now sober. In an interview with noisecreep he says "This last year we all witnessed my demise - my plummet - my fall - and my rebirth. After what was a couple years of dangerous drinking and drug use, I hit rock bottom. It was a long recovery process but we are all in a better place now that I'm completely sober. So now no drink or drugs - none. It's been an interesting lifestyle change - yeah, I'll use the word "interesting,"" laughs Worsnop.

Vocal Cord Injury
Near the end of 2012 Danny had a torn vocal cord and was unable to perform in some shows on their tour. The concert started and all the other bands played their songs. The main act of the night, Asking Alexandria, kicked off their set but without frontman Danny Worsnop, but fans, who were a tad confused, still sang along. Eventually, Worsnop came out onstage to screaming fans and explained that he tore his vocal cord and wouldn’t be able to perform, but that his buds from I See Stars and Attila would take over the vocal duties. The band also got help from a multitalented roadie, who was busy setting up the equipment and taping down wires before they began, but graced the stage and tore it up on a few Asking Alexandria songs. Also the friend of Asking Alexandria that were on the tour with them such as: As I Lay Dying, Attila, I See Stars, and Memphis May Fire helped out in their time of need.

Danny has went to a doctor that was a vocal specialist to help him get his vocal cords healed to get back on track and be able to finish the album and move on to the next tour.After seeking treatment from vocal specialist Dr. Sugerman, Worsnop feels he is on the path to recovery and he decided to let fans in on the process by shooting a video with the good doc showing one of his recent sessions. The clip was filmed approximately two weeks after the singer’s initial treatment. In it, the viewer gets to see Worsnop’s visit with Sugerman, the singer’s description of the flex camera and the doctor’s eventual shots of Worsnop’s vocal cords. The good news is that Worsnop has some time to rest his vocal cords as the band has finished most of their forthcoming album and have been enjoying the holiday break without any immediate dates looming.

Short Films
director Frankie Nasso

"British metalcore lads, Asking Alexandria, didn’t want to wait to get their “sex, drugs, and rock ‘n roll” Hollywood fix when they play the 5th Annual Mayhem Festival on June 30th in Southern California. Instead the fierce five-piece made a scandalous short film called Through Sin and Self-Destruction that features the band wandering Los Angeles’ infamous Sunset Strip with the likes of porn stars Belladonna and Andy San Dimas and Skid Row’s controversial ex-frontman, Sebastian Bach." Danny and the band wanted everyone to experience the things that happens when living the rockstar life such as the "party hard" lifestyle. The short film contains the songs “Dear Insanity,” “Reckless and Relentless,” and “To The Stage."

Solo Career
Danny has began to work on his solo album and is going to have a different sound than what his fans are use to. The release date for the album is still unknown, but the album should be through Sumerian Records. He has released a preview of his song "Photograph". Worsnop tells Loudwire that “Photograph’ is much softer than the rest of the album; it’s more of a ballad.” The overall sound is a huge departure from what you’d expect from Asking Alexandria and finds Worsnop exploring a more mainstream rock sound. In an exclusive chat, we asked Worsnop for all the details.

He has continued to work on it and has finally released his first solo single "Savior". On his twitter Danny said "I hope you all enjoy it. Yes it's a ballad. They're all gonna be different". With the release of this single he has officially started his solo career in the music world.

Books
Danny has written a book titled "Am I Insane?" which is an autobiography. On his Tumblr he has said "Today I spent a good few hours on the phone and online applying for college to pursue my degree in photography and writing for my book. I figured what better way to celebrate this momentous occasion than by taking a beautiful picture of myself and sharing an exert for you all to ingest."
