on 26 may 2015, denis stoff, formerly the guitarist and vocalist of ukrainian metalcore bands make me famous and down & dirty, was revealed as the new lead vocalist when the band released "i won't give in", their first single with him, on 27 may. speculation regarding stoff's involvement started shortly after worsnop's departure due to similarities between asking alexandria and make me famous (who were said to have been ripping off the band's sound); the fact that they were label mates would have made the transition easy for stoff to make, and on his personal youtube account he had covered multiple asking alexandria songs. bruce was asked if he considered anyone else for the role and he stated that "it has to be denis" going on to praise his much greater vocal range and since he was inspired by worsnop in the earlier stages of asking alexandria he can perform their songs live much better than worsnop could, however when stoff himself was asked how he would distinguish himself from him, he stated he would not make any comparison since he is a completely different person.
