Stepped Up and Scratched is a remix album by English rock band Asking Alexandria. After many delayed scheduled releases, it was released on 21 November 2011 through Sumerian Records. It includes remixes done by Borgore, Sol Invicto, Celldweller, Big Chocolate, KC Blitz and more.

Borgore's remix of "Final Episode (Let's Change the Channel)" was released as a digital single on 19 April 2011, as a promotional iTunes single back when the album was set for release in July 2011. Since then the album was again pushed back, and at some point believed to be shelved. In October 2011, it was announced that the album will be finally released on 21 November 2011, with Sumerian Records revealing the track list and cover art of the album. Tomba's remix of "Another Bottle Down" was released for free listening on Sumerian Records' YouTube channel, though it wasn't an official single.

The first official single from the album was announced to be Celldweller's remix of "A Lesson Never Learned" which was set for a 1 November 2011, release. The Document One remix of "Reckless & Relentless" was premiered on Hot Topic's website on 10 November 2011.
