Check out "Evolve" from the 2023 MTV VMAs and "Disciple" from their Pepsi Center CDMX performances. The guitar player is actually the primary lead vocalist. She uses a Kemper Profiler pedal board. Their first language is Spanish and they have 3 songs in Spanish. All bangers ( "Martirio", "Narcisista", and "Que Mas Quieres"). Live is their super power.
The Warning is a Mexican rock band made up of three sisters: Dany (24) on guitar and vocals, Pau (22) on drums and vocals, and Ale (20) on bass and vocals. Known for their incredible chemistry and dynamic performances, they’ve been performing together since they were kids. At this Teatro Metropolitan show in 2022, Dany was 22, Pau was 20, and Ale was 17. This song is from their second album, Queen of the Murder Scene, which was was released in 2018 when Dany was 18, Pau was 16, and Ale was 13. It is a concept album that tells the story of a young woman’s descent into obsession, murder, and madness, exploring themes of guilt, control, and self-destruction. "Dust to Dust," the album’s opening track and prologue, introduces its cyclical nature. The song reflects on life and death, warning about deception and how quickly things can unravel. It features a spoken Spanish interlude, performed by their manager Rudy, playing the part of a preacher. The Spanish part conveys a message of salvation as something that must be earned, urging the listener to let go of resentment and embrace a new light within themselves, even when others try to drag them into darkness. This moment ties into the album’s themes of forgiveness and inner struggle. I think a great performance to react to next would be their song "Evolve" performed at the 2023 MTV VMAs.
Hey, man, I remember you from your Jinjer reactions! You found a hell of a rabbit hole in The Warning. 3 young sisters from Mexico. In 2022 (the time of this show) Dany (guitar) was 22. Pau "Pow" (drums) was 20. And Ale (bass) was 17. They already had 3 albums out at the time and have since added a 4th. Seasoned pros with over a decade of experience now. These young ladies are the real deal. Adorable sweethearts off stage, you'd never think they'd be bad ass charismatic MONSTERS when they play in front of a live crowd. Great musicians, great songwriters, great performers. Above all, they are absolutely sincere and authentic... they seem to care a great deal about their craft, their family, their fans, and each other. I've never seen anything like them.
Here's some context. I'm a top-tier live audio engineer of 30 years. I can say with authority this is the best live rock band I have seen in decades. No joke. You have met their fans in the comments and they will be here to support your channel. They are the nicest fanbase I have ever seen, and if you react to more of this band they will be here. The Army has already told you a lot about these three ladies. The thing about them that impresses me is not just their music or performances ... it's how nice they are. They are authentic; with their music, their fans, and living their dream. It's nice to see a band loving what they do and sharing that with their fans. I have to admit, I am addicted to these young ladies and their overall presentation, and to an old pro like me that's not a normal thing. It's refreshing and aspiring. They have brought tears to my eyes more times than I want to admit. (So much for being a hardened and cynical old pro in the biz). Watch some of the single videos from the Pepsi Center CDMX show from Oct 2023. It is one of the best pure rock concerts I have seen. The audio mix is perfect and so is the video as shot. Every song is excellent. CDMX stands for Cuidad de México (Mexico City), so you know this audience is out of control. The 8,000 strong audience sings through the entire 2+ hour show ... loudly! At times you can hear them singing the guitar riffs, a thing I have never heard before ever. It ads to the excitement watching these videos. Every song is great, but I would recommend watching "Disciple" first. It's the opener and the crowd is just losing their minds. No violence ... just pure joy. That's what this great band evokes ... joy! That's what a rock concert is supposed to be! And these ladies bring it.
She once said in an interview that she practices singing while she is running on the treadmill to be able to sing while she plays the drums. She won Drumeo's drummer of the year in 2023.
In my opinion, this is the best rock band out there, and yet so many folks have never heard of them. Thank you for taking a listen to them and I hope you do more Warning songs in the near future.
the Warning have 60 originals, ranging from Ballads to metal, 4 albums, a bunch of covers. been around for over 11 years now, since they were children. been nominated for a Grammy and a Latin Grammy, this is a rabbit hole worth diving into
I have watched a lot of your Rush Reactions. You will LOVE this band!! Trust me they are incredible. They are legit the future of Rock Music. Dive Deep.
Hey! Thank you for doing my song request. Looks like some of The Warning Army are popping up in the comment section telling you a little bit about this band. All I'll say is they are my favorite band and these girls are the real deal. They have quite the catalog of amazing songs. Most of their fans will tell you they have yet to write a bad song, and I wholeheartedly agree with that statement.
Since this is your first time with The Warning let me extend The Warning Army's welcome to what we believe is the future of rock & roll - The Warning - Three sisters from Monterey Mexico who started playing together when they were children and who have now been making great hard music for more than a decade. With four studio albums, several live concert videos, we think there is plenty of material for you to choose from. They were independent for the first two albums (Kickstarter and crowd-funded), but are now signed to Lava/Republic records. This three-piece is: Daniela (Dany, 24yo, guitar) Paulina (Pau, as in POW-er, 22yo, drums) Alejandra (Ale, pronounced AH-lay, 20yo, bass) All three sisters sing, and all are classically trained on piano. The Warning have a sound that is both new and familiar. It is certainly hard rock, but clearly influenced by their love of classic rock, metal, punk, K-pop, indie, grunge, funk, and many other genres including classical music. But they have taken those influences and forged a sound that is uniquely their own, and you know that it is them. At the same time simple and complex. What does it sound like to me? Refreshing. A sound that has caught my ear and made me interested in rock again after 25+ years of the same old playlist. While together their combined ages are about the same as many of us fans, their musical maturity is exceptionally high. There are really no bad choices. They are something special live-I think it is their super power. Their energy, charisma, and musicality really shine when in front of an audience. In the past two years I have flown >20k miles all over North America, Mexico, UK, and Ireland. Can’t wait for the chance to travel and see them again next month in Mexico.
These sisters have been playing together since they were kids. All are multi-instrumentalists starting on piano. Paulina has been running on the treadmill while singing for many years to condition herself with breath control. All are exceptionally musically talented and insanely good songwriters. English is their second language. I’ll stop with the factoids because you’re going to get a lot to read. You’re going to get lots of support and love exploring this band and you won’t regret a second of it. Thanks guys.
Welcome to the best trio on the planet. English is their second language. Spanish 1st. 3 sisters from Mexico are absolutely brilliant. Try the live stuff from their channel, LIVE AT THE PEPSI CENTER CDMX.. Start with "Disciple" the opener.. THE DRUMMER GIRL .. Paulina aka Pau (Pow)was FAN VOTED BEST ROCK DRUMMER OF THE YEAR AT THE 2023 DRUMEO AWARDS.. She's 22yrs old. 🌍✌️
As I say to all first time reactors....Welcome to the addiction. Its real, just embrace it. I see The Warning Army is already here. They will give you all the info you could want and more. Paulinas breath control and stamina are so amazing. They all sing very well and harmonize like nobodies business.
Oh hell yes! So glad to see you check out The Warning! They are an amazing power trio & they sound amazing live! So young, yet so talented - seriously they haven’t got a bad song in their entire discography (already 4 LPs deep) Please do more from these ladies! ❤
Yeah, Pau can play drums and sing at the same time, also she's a fantastic songwriter ... and the other sisters are just as impressive. You can not go wrong with anything you listen to from this band. They do NOT have a bad song. Dive in. You won't regret it. Their live clips are the best, and the Pepsi Center clips are the best of the best. But their studio videos are also amazing. And they have 10 years of material that is all fantastic. All that said, "Dust To Dust" is what made me a dedicated fan, back in 2018 when they released their show from the Lunario premiering their second full-length record, the concept album "Queen of the Murder Scene."
@@dmusiclife5727 They have opened for the Foo Fighters,Muse, Guns n Roses, Def Leppard, Halestorm, Three day grace and several other bands and have done covers of the Foo Fighters.
@@dmusiclife5727 Check out their cover they did with Alessia Cara of the song Enter Sandman that appears on Metallica's Blacklist album. They turned that song into their own. Recently they covered Alanis Morrisette " you aught to know" some say it's even better than the original.
Hi you two, welcome over to the best rabbit hole in the world. That is no an over statement. You are going to love these three sisters and their journey thus far. Like Rush you won't be disappointed, I love you guys and I am proud of you. Music can slay worlds, enjoy The Warning. Guitarist - Daniella Villarreal Valez. Bass Player and youngest sister - Alejandra Villarreal Valez. Drummer, and Neil Peart fan Paulina Villarreal Valez. Enjoy and thankyou.
The Warning are the future of hard rock. They have 11 years worth of videos and life shows on youtube, and the youngest sister just turned 20. Live performances are their super power. I hope to see more of them on your channel!
This song is the prologue to a musical story and concept album. It features the ghost of the protagonist appealing to the mourners at her funeral to listen to her story. The Spanish part is the priest preaching the sermon (it happens to be the voice of their manager). The rest of the story is about the girl or woman with a crush on someone who doesn't return her love. barely knows she exists. The story follows her into obsession, stalking, murder, madness and death. The story is "Queen of the Murder Scene", which is also the title song on the album. Well worth checking it out song by song. The concept was born in the mind of a 15 year old girl "going through her emo phase", but all three sisters fleshed it out, recorded, produced and released in 2018.
Well, I see the Warning Army has everything under control in the comments section, guiding these new Warning reactors. I watched you two when I went through my Tool awakening about a year ago, just found The Warning about 3 months ago, and they were good enough to knock me off of my Tool stool. Looking forward to watching your discovery unfold of this Mexican classic rock band. FYI: they all have gear reviews on UA-cam, you were wondering about Dani's setup. As a 60 year old drummer with 45 years doing rock and roll covers. Never gets boring.
I discovered The Warning and I fall in love immediately. In my 56 I have done something that I have not done in the last 30 years, buy a disk of a "new" band (well, the band has 13 years), and no only one, but three because the second is sold out (for me the best one). Waiting that April come soon to see they in live!!!
Great reaction. I see The Warning Army has arrived in your comment section. You have no idea how much fun you will have going down this rabbit hole. I suggest your next reaction should be Evolve at the MTV VMAs. You will not be disappointed.They blew the roof off. Strap on your seatbelt and don't forget to turn it up. As all Warning fans say, "You have been Warned!"
Excellent The Warning reaction guys! The Villarreal-Velez sisters are amazing songwriters and performers from Mexico who live in Monterrey, San Pedro Garza Garcia, Nuevo Leon. Each one of their original songs is great. Their second album, "QUEEN OF THE MURDER SCENE" (2018), is a concept album. It follows a girl's journey into unrequited love; from infatuation and obsession on into stalking and murder, then madness and the fight over her soul. It is a masterpiece. It was nominated for Best Rock Album at the 2019 Independent Music Awards. Their 1st full-length LP, "XXI CENTURY BLOOD" (2017), is also very good and is packed with many great songs. The video for the title track, "XXI Century Blood", was nominated for and won many awards. Their very 1st released recordings are from their 6 song EP, "ESCAPE THE MIND" (2015); and it is amazing. Despite being courted by numerous offers from many major record labels, The Warning have stayed independent through the years; relying on crowd funding to finance their projects. They refused to give up creative control over their material ... down to even the clothes they wear on stage. After 7 months of negotiations, The Warning signed a 5 album recording contract with Lava/Republic Records/Universal Music Group in the fall of 2020. They decided to release 1/2 (6 songs) of their completed 3rd full-length album in an EP called "MAYDAY" October 8th, 2021. The entire album was released June 24th, 2022: called "ERROR". "Disciple" is my favorite track! Their 4th studio album, KEEP ME FED was released June 28th, 2024. They have released 7 singles: "MORE", "SICK", "HELL YOU CALL A DREAM", "AUTOMATIC SUN", "BURNOUT", "QUE MAS QUIERES", and "SIX FEET DEEP". The Warning do not come from a family of musicians, however, their parents are huge fans of classic rock. Both parents are professionals (recording engineer and dentist) and they enrolled their daughters into a private Catholic English Bilingual school Liceo de Monterrey, Mexico. They also started the girls with classical piano lessons at ages 6, 4 and 5 years old. Regular family functions included gathering around the TV with popcorn and watching LIVE concert dvds of legendary bands like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Queen and AC/DC. When their parents got them the video game Rock Band at ages 8, 6 and 3, they went nuts playing it obsessively. Shortly thereafter they got real instruments with lessons from professional teachers: and the rest is history. Crazy they are 24, 22 and 20 years old and have already written, arranged, and released #57 original songs. They performed 2 songs at the 2023 MTV VMA's. Drummer Paulina writes around 75% of The Warning's songs. Most of her songs begin in rock ballad form; starting with a concept, then chord progression, melody and basic song structure on the piano. She may only have a verse and a chorus when she brings it before her sisters. Together they transpose each instrument's part and "rockify" the song. They complete any lyrics, bridges and any arranging, etc. making changes along the way. A 2/3 approval vote of each instrument's part and each vocal harmony before it becomes a completed song. Paulina has said if not for her sisters, her songs would be different. Both guitarist Daniela and bassist Alejandra write equally great songs; just not as many. Drummer Paulina won Drumeo's 2023 Rock Drummer of the Year and won Best Up and Coming Artist in Modern Drummer Magazine's 2023 reader's poll. They performed AUTOMATIC SUN at the 2024 MTV EMA's (European) in Manchester, United Kingdom. 4 days later they performed QUE MA`S QUIERES at the 2024 LATIN GRAMMYS in Miami, Florida. Both performances highlighted songs that were nominated for an award. They were interviewed and performed 3 songs live on television in front of a large studio audience in France December 20th, 2024 on the Taratata show. I was fortunate enough to get to meet them after their show January 16th, 2020 at The Whisky a Go-Go in Hollywood, California, USA. I had the opportunity to meet with them 3 more times during the 10 shows I attended on their 2022 North American MAYDAY Tour and 2023 ERROR WORLD TOUR. I met them again at Fingerprints Music in Long Beach California for a CD signing on the day their new album KEEP ME FED was released (June 28th, 2024) and the morning after they performed live on the Jimmy Kimmel show. I saw them again October 8th and 9th, 2024 in Los Angeles with a meet-n-greet on the second night. Aside from their music, they are just normal, sweet, intelligent, and fun-loving young ladies who are truely grateful and endearing to their fans. They really shine live: even better than their studio recordings. 🗣 Subscribed! 🤘☺️❤
You're barely scratching the surface of an 11-year history of the best, purest rock you'll ever hear, tons of musical and lyrical talent, and an amazing way of life, you'll be amazed
Three sisters from Monterrey Mexico who love to rock. They are an OUTSTANDING live band!! Well worth the effort to see in person. Daniela (Dany) guitar/lead vocals, Paulina (Pau) drummer/lead vocals (sometimes), Alejandre (Ale) bass/backing vocals.
So happy to see you guys doing the Warning :-), I followed you two almost religiously when I was going down the Tool rabbit hole. then a year ago I found the Warning and have since been going down the Warning rabbit hole, hope to see you guys join me down here :-).. these girls are the real deal, and DO NOT write a bad song.. you will probably be visited by the Warning Army (TWA) very soon here as well.. you may have seen these girls back in 2014 when they did a cover of Metallica's enter sandman and it went viral (Kirk Hammit said the drummer kicks ass). they were 14,12 and 9 at the time.
Yeah, the drummer practices singing while she is running on the treadmill, she's been doing it since she was a child. That's why she can sing so well while playing the drums.
The band is playing in Mexico city which sits at an altitud of 7300 feet in elevation so that is even more difficult for a drummer, less oxigen. And they are not from mexico city they are from the city of Monterrey Mexico. Different elevation, much lower. But all three are in excellent physical shape. The drummer sings while she's running on a threadmill.
The line 'dust to dust' is often used at (Catholic) funerals. The Spanish part is a sermon about salvation that has to be earned, and the Priest is played by their manager Rudy. Paulina (Pau [Pow]) is the one who writes the majority of their songs while composing on the piano. She sings lead or part lead on maybe a quarter of the songs and the oldest sister Daniela (Dany) is the regular lead. Youngest sister Alejandra (Ale [Ah-lay]) on bass normally only sings backing vocals, but occasionally takes over from Dany on a few songs, mostly when Dany is under the weather and needs to rest her voice.
Great reaction! 🙏 Live performing is their superpower! 🤘🔥⚡️ This song is the song that got me hooked 2 years ago and still has a permanent spot in my top five The Warning songs. Try Martirio from this same concert, Evolve from the MTV VMA’s or Desciple from their Pepsi Centre concert. Grtz from 🇳🇱
I subscribed to your channel. The Warning are a 3 sister rock band from Monterey Mexico. All 3 are musical prodigies. They are currently 25,23 and 20 and they have been a band for 12 years. That was their manager Rudy doing the speaking vocal in Spanish on the break. This concert was in Mexico City, they have toured the world. They are an incredible band. Keep reacting to them it is an amazing rabbit hole, but so worth it.

I haven't heard much I really liked the last 20 years or so, but I have become a huge fan of Jinjer and The Warning. Very different bands but fresh music with lots of passion.
Welcome to The Warning. Paulina not only drums, sings, performs and writes the core of most of their songs, but also runs the show from behind the kit. For a small venue performance, try Evolve from the 2023 VMAs. For a bigger production, start with Disciple from the Pepsi Center concert. It is the concert a year after this show which had a crowd of 3000. The Pepsi Center is packed with 8000 and, like this, the full production is by the band and their team. Possibly the best rock concert I have seen in over 60 years of concerts.
You are going to really love The Warning! After you check out some of their songs from recent concerts, you should check out their early days, they have their entire career/band development online, its pretty special.
Nice first reaction to these three sisters from Mexico who love to rock and are badasses doing it! First time on your channel and liked the vibe and enthusiasm. TWA (The Warning Army) has already started to arrive so here is a quick summary: Dany (Daniela, Guitar/Lead singer, now 24), Pau (“Pow”, Paulina, drums and sometimes lead vocals, 22) and Ale (“Ah-ley”, Alejandra, bass and backing vocals, just turned 20). Their superpower is their live performances. They recently released a number of videos from their concert last year at the Pepsi Center CDMX (Mexico City). The video is 4k, the audio is HD and the energy is amazing. There are many options so to keep it simple, I’ll make 3 suggestions: 1 - suggest starting with the first song from the Pepsi Center concert: Disciple from the Pepsi Center - it explodes with energy. (The next song - “Z” is amazing too and has a really nice solo from Dany.) 2 - next: Hell you Call a Dream official live also from the Pepsi Center. 3 - Evolve from their MTV VMAs performance in October 2023. It’s a terrific performance and often the first original song that folks get introduced to. As long as you get the videos from their YT channel, you should not have any copyright infringement issues. Subbed for more TW.
Welcome to the fandom! ♥ these chikas! I suggest these The Warning songs: Money, Sick, Disciple, Automatic Sun, Enter Sandman (with Alessia Cara) & Evolve (live VMAs) I also suggest another all female rock band from Japan - Band Maid! Both bands are friends & fans of each other I suggest these Band Maid songs: Thrill, Dice, Manners, Bubble, No God (live) & Puzzle (live) They also released a song collab a few months back called - Show Them
If you follow the trend of most reactors the next song you react to will be your favorite, no matter which one you choose. I can't choose a favorite because all their songs are good! They are super talented and are in their 11th year of being a band. Their official videos are really good but live really show their talent. I really like the Teatro concert, but the Pepsi Center and the Poland concerts are top notch and the most recent. There are some songs in each concert that are not performed at the others, so I go back and forth between their concerts including their Lunario concert from 2018 when they were 13, 16 and 19. They also did 2 TedX Talks that are worth watching also.
Pau, the drummer, sings or shares lead vocals with Dany on about 20% of the band’s songs; she trains by singing while running on a treadmill. While all three sisters participate in the songwriting process, many of the songs start with Pau on piano, then bringing a proto-song to the other two for full composition. Not this one, though - this song, particularly the bass riff, is largely credited to Ale, who started work on it at 11. (The QOTMS album came out when she was about 13.) Dany is kinda the “first among equals” as the frontwoman and the main vocalist, but all three can sing (Ale, the bassist, doesn’t sing often, but she and Pau have both stepped in at times when Dany needed to rest her voice). There’s a steadily growing “library” for this band. They have a number of OMVs and live performances on their channel, including the 2018 Lunario concert, featuring a full live performance of QOTMS, the full concert this performance was taken from, 2022 Teatro Metropolitan CDMX (Mexico City), and one a year later at the Pepsi Center CDMX. Specifically for the benefit of reactors like you, none of the stuff on their channel has the copyright tag turned on; whenever there’s been a copyright issue with their performances, it’s always been when a third party is involved. There’s no wrong path down the rabbit hole, although I consider this a good start - you’ve hit the “starts with a killer bass riff,” “the drummer sings,” and “great live stage presence” tags off the bat. I would mostly agree with other commenters that the live performances have an energy that you just can’t get from the studio tracks, but when there’s a real OMV for a song, like with “Choke,” “Six Feet Deep,” or “Que MAs Quieres?” you should check it out as well. One thing you will find is that this band has a long relationship with “Enter Sandman.” They did a straight cover in their basement when they were 14, 12, and 9, and the video went viral (now up to 26 million+ views), and was even praised by Metallica (Kirk Hammet was quoted as saying “That drummer kicks maximum ass!”) In 2021, they worked with Canadian singer Alessia Cara to produce a completely reimagined version, which became track #1 on Metallica’s Blacklist album. They’ve performed this version live with Alessia once at the Troubadour in LA; at the TM and PC concerts, they’ve had some of her vocals on a backing track. The Pepsi Center performance also included a string section for added umph.
Buena reacción! 🤘🏼🇲🇽🤘🏼🇲🇽🤘🏼🇲🇽 The Warning: tres hermanas mexicanas, Daniela (🎤🎸), Paulina (🥁🎤) y Alejandra (🎸🎤). Rock ecléctico!! “Han sido advertidos “
Dany (short for Daniela) gets her killer guitar sound by using a Kemper profiler pedalboard; it spits out two channels... and one of the channels has a harmonizer with a 10ms delay and an octave shift down one octave... with different overdrive effects and whatever other effects are needed for the song. This gives the illusion of there almost being a second guitarist on stage. Sounds amazing and full. Their live sound is almost always better than their studio sound... they are a true live band. Dig deeper... you won't be disappointed by this band... best band of their generation. You have been WARNED! (That's a good thing, I promise.) ;-)
DPA (TW) is taking over the global rock banner! They are at the forefront and will lead the way in the genre! Great reaction from both of you and I'm excited to know that if you keep reacting to more of this power trio's material they will soon be your favorite band too, inevitably!! That's for sure... That's the warning!! Because as you get to know TW better you discover that their music is steeped in various rock styles but invariably it’s pure rock. And I continue to reaffirm my humble but very personal opinion that their structure, their cuts, transitions, rhythm changes, modulations, choruses, pre-choruses, drum attacks, their endings... All of it is masterful. The great beauty of their art is in its simplicity but all of this always seems to be at the right time and in the right way, bordering on perfection, with sophistication predominating. There could always be other options, but the ones they choose seem to be the exact ones to create a masterpiece of art. Also impregnating everything with a natural touch of inevitable sensuality that only adds improvements and with the feeling, sensitivity and passion of their blood, race and culture. Each of their pieces can be very different, but always with all the flavor of TW. It’s very clear that these sisters have no limits. They have that gift that only belongs to the geniuses that appear among us every certain period of time. This is the youngest veteran band in the world of rock!! Without forgetting that they are only three, yes, but three authentic geniuses in their specialization. Melodically they are the best, without a doubt, because they are the queens of the hook, the riff, the changes of tonality, the contagious rhythms, the catchy melodies, the sublime voices, the unbeatable harmonies and the ambiguous but deep and powerful messages. And this happens song after song… INCREDIBLE!! And all of the above is exponentially enhanced in each of their live performances. Individually there is also a lot of material to tell about the band, about this power-trio of sisters who are the new "masters of Rock": The Warning ⚡ For now I subscribe to your channel because I hope to see many more reactions and opinions from you about my favorite band of all time. Thank you and greetings from México!! 🇲🇽 🤘😁✌️ .

Pau had been singing while drumming since she was a child… 2nd nature for her. They all started at an early age. Opening for Def Leppard when Bassist, Alejandra, was just 12. A year later they opened for The Killers (and a crowd of 30K).
The Spanish you heard in the background is a prerecorded sermon spoken by their manager Rudy Joffroy. In the original performance of Dust to Dust, Rudy joined them on stage in the role of a preacher to deliver a Spanish sermon to the audience. He was later replaced by that background track. All three of the sisters can take turns singing solo or lead while playing their instruments. The vocal abilities of both the drummer and the guitarist/lead singer have impressed older veteran bands they have opened for that each or both have been invited to sing lead by these bands for some of their songs. The drummer Pau was DRUMEO’s Best Rock Drummer of 2023. Metallica invited The Warning to collab with Canadian singer Alessia Cara to rework Enter Sandman for the Blacklist album. Check their version of Enter Sandman that they did for Metallica live at the Pepsi Center.
The fact that is so rare for a drummer to sing lead people see it right in front of there eyes and don't believe it. At the beginning he says "I don't know if the drummer sings" Great reaction.
If you guys ever get the chance to see this band live TAKE IT!. They absolutely kick ass live. This is one of my fave songs of theirs. Dany on the lead guitar is the main vocalist I would say but Pau (drums) does take the lead on some songs. Their harmonies on are point as well.
Paulina has been singing while destroying the drums since a very very young age. They all three have been playing while singing since the beginning. It's second nature to them. Also spanish is their native language which is mindblowing since they also speak perfect english.
5:39, funny you should mention that, one of their early cover songs when they were kids was "Everlong", they also did "The Pretender" a couple of years later.
I loved your reaction to the Tool songs. As a proud member of the Tool Army, their music has always been the cornerstone of my playlist... until I discovered The Warning. Now, I find myself firmly in the ranks of The Warning Army, and for good reason. The connection between Tool and The Warning might not be immediately obvious, but both bands evoke something profound and authentic. What truly sets The Warning apart is their incredible talent at such a young age, which opens up endless possibilities for their future. They’ve already achieved so much, but it’s their potential for innovation and evolution as musicians that makes them truly exciting. It’s not just about what they’ve done-it’s about the promise of what’s to come. Remember, you’ve been warned.
Check out "Evolve" from the 2023 MTV VMAs and "Disciple" from their Pepsi Center CDMX performances. The guitar player is actually the primary lead vocalist. She uses a Kemper Profiler pedal board. Their first language is Spanish and they have 3 songs in Spanish. All bangers ( "Martirio", "Narcisista", and "Que Mas Quieres"). Live is their super power.
These are definitely the ones to watch next…
The Warning is a Mexican rock band made up of three sisters: Dany (24) on guitar and vocals, Pau (22) on drums and vocals, and Ale (20) on bass and vocals. Known for their incredible chemistry and dynamic performances, they’ve been performing together since they were kids. At this Teatro Metropolitan show in 2022, Dany was 22, Pau was 20, and Ale was 17.
This song is from their second album, Queen of the Murder Scene, which was was released in 2018 when Dany was 18, Pau was 16, and Ale was 13. It is a concept album that tells the story of a young woman’s descent into obsession, murder, and madness, exploring themes of guilt, control, and self-destruction.
"Dust to Dust," the album’s opening track and prologue, introduces its cyclical nature. The song reflects on life and death, warning about deception and how quickly things can unravel. It features a spoken Spanish interlude, performed by their manager Rudy, playing the part of a preacher. The Spanish part conveys a message of salvation as something that must be earned, urging the listener to let go of resentment and embrace a new light within themselves, even when others try to drag them into darkness. This moment ties into the album’s themes of forgiveness and inner struggle.
I think a great performance to react to next would be their song "Evolve" performed at the 2023 MTV VMAs.
Hey, man, I remember you from your Jinjer reactions! You found a hell of a rabbit hole in The Warning. 3 young sisters from Mexico. In 2022 (the time of this show) Dany (guitar) was 22. Pau "Pow" (drums) was 20. And Ale (bass) was 17. They already had 3 albums out at the time and have since added a 4th. Seasoned pros with over a decade of experience now.
These young ladies are the real deal. Adorable sweethearts off stage, you'd never think they'd be bad ass charismatic MONSTERS when they play in front of a live crowd. Great musicians, great songwriters, great performers. Above all, they are absolutely sincere and authentic... they seem to care a great deal about their craft, their family, their fans, and each other. I've never seen anything like them.
Welcome to THE WARNING - three sisters from Monterrey Mexico that are the real deal and the full package
You have been WARNED!!! ⚡⚡⚡🤘🤘🤘
Here's some context. I'm a top-tier live audio engineer of 30 years. I can say with authority this is the best live rock band I have seen in decades. No joke. You have met their fans in the comments and they will be here to support your channel. They are the nicest fanbase I have ever seen, and if you react to more of this band they will be here. The Army has already told you a lot about these three ladies. The thing about them that impresses me is not just their music or performances ... it's how nice they are. They are authentic; with their music, their fans, and living their dream. It's nice to see a band loving what they do and sharing that with their fans. I have to admit, I am addicted to these young ladies and their overall presentation, and to an old pro like me that's not a normal thing. It's refreshing and aspiring. They have brought tears to my eyes more times than I want to admit. (So much for being a hardened and cynical old pro in the biz).
Watch some of the single videos from the Pepsi Center CDMX show from Oct 2023. It is one of the best pure rock concerts I have seen. The audio mix is perfect and so is the video as shot. Every song is excellent. CDMX stands for Cuidad de México (Mexico City), so you know this audience is out of control. The 8,000 strong audience sings through the entire 2+ hour show ... loudly! At times you can hear them singing the guitar riffs, a thing I have never heard before ever. It ads to the excitement watching these videos. Every song is great, but I would recommend watching "Disciple" first. It's the opener and the crowd is just losing their minds. No violence ... just pure joy. That's what this great band evokes ... joy! That's what a rock concert is supposed to be! And these ladies bring it.
I've seen them 6 times since I first heard them (Money, March 2022) They're amazing.
She once said in an interview that she practices singing while she is running on the treadmill to be able to sing while she plays the drums. She won Drumeo's drummer of the year in 2023.
In my opinion, this is the best rock band out there, and yet so many folks have never heard of them. Thank you for taking a listen to them and I hope you do more Warning songs in the near future.
💯
I have Lovebites at nr 1
But the warning is the like the only reason I am going to Sweden Rock in summer 😉
@@Honken55. Lovebites is metal
Holy crap I'm so glad you guys have checked out The Warning. You will LOVE them!! Keep going
The more you react, the more impressed you’ll become. Welcome to the Warning.
the Warning have 60 originals, ranging from Ballads to metal, 4 albums, a bunch of covers. been around for over 11 years now, since they were children. been nominated for a Grammy and a Latin Grammy, this is a rabbit hole worth diving into
I have watched a lot of your Rush Reactions.
You will LOVE this band!!
Trust me they are incredible.
They are legit the future of Rock Music.
Dive Deep.
More The Warning please ❤
Hey! Thank you for doing my song request. Looks like some of The Warning Army are popping up in the comment section telling you a little bit about this band. All I'll say is they are my favorite band and these girls are the real deal. They have quite the catalog of amazing songs. Most of their fans will tell you they have yet to write a bad song, and I wholeheartedly agree with that statement.
Bad songs. They’re either thrown away or get recycled/rewritten until they’re good. 😁
Since this is your first time with The Warning let me extend The Warning Army's welcome to what we believe is the future of rock & roll - The Warning - Three sisters from Monterey Mexico who started playing together when they were children and who have now been making great hard music for more than a decade. With four studio albums, several live concert videos, we think there is plenty of material for you to choose from. They were independent for the first two albums (Kickstarter and crowd-funded), but are now signed to Lava/Republic records.
This three-piece is:
Daniela (Dany, 24yo, guitar)
Paulina (Pau, as in POW-er, 22yo, drums)
Alejandra (Ale, pronounced AH-lay, 20yo, bass)
All three sisters sing, and all are classically trained on piano.
The Warning have a sound that is both new and familiar. It is certainly hard rock, but clearly influenced by their love of classic rock, metal, punk, K-pop, indie, grunge, funk, and many other genres including classical music. But they have taken those influences and forged a sound that is uniquely their own, and you know that it is them. At the same time simple and complex.
What does it sound like to me? Refreshing. A sound that has caught my ear and made me interested in rock again after 25+ years of the same old playlist. While together their combined ages are about the same as many of us fans, their musical maturity is exceptionally high.
There are really no bad choices. They are something special live-I think it is their super power. Their energy, charisma, and musicality really shine when in front of an audience. In the past two years I have flown >20k miles all over North America, Mexico, UK, and Ireland. Can’t wait for the chance to travel and see them again next month in Mexico.
Welcome to the hottest band you’ve never heard before! The Villarreal sisters are the best power trio on the scene today.
In this performance they were 17 bass player, 20 drummer and 22 lead guitar and lead singer.
Fantastic band, great and extensive catalog, and a very deep rabbit hole awaits you .....
Live is their superpower.
Your favorite song is the last one you heard for the first time.
These sisters have been playing together since they were kids. All are multi-instrumentalists starting on piano. Paulina has been running on the treadmill while singing for many years to condition herself with breath control. All are exceptionally musically talented and insanely good songwriters. English is their second language. I’ll stop with the factoids because you’re going to get a lot to read. You’re going to get lots of support and love exploring this band and you won’t regret a second of it. Thanks guys.
Welcome to the best trio on the planet. English is their second language. Spanish 1st. 3 sisters from Mexico are absolutely brilliant. Try the live stuff from their channel, LIVE AT THE PEPSI CENTER CDMX.. Start with "Disciple" the opener.. THE DRUMMER GIRL .. Paulina aka Pau (Pow)was FAN VOTED BEST ROCK DRUMMER OF THE YEAR AT THE 2023 DRUMEO AWARDS.. She's 22yrs old. 🌍✌️
Finally you found them! Keep exploring this band, you will not be disappointed! You have been warned! ⚡️🤘❤
As I say to all first time reactors....Welcome to the addiction. Its real, just embrace it. I see The Warning Army is already here. They will give you all the info you could want and more.
Paulinas breath control and stamina are so amazing. They all sing very well and harmonize like nobodies business.
Oh hell yes! So glad to see you check out The Warning! They are an amazing power trio & they sound amazing live! So young, yet so talented - seriously they haven’t got a bad song in their entire discography (already 4 LPs deep)
Please do more from these ladies! ❤
"Animosity"... "Z"... "Narcisista"...
Uff... All is amazing
Yeah, Pau can play drums and sing at the same time, also she's a fantastic songwriter ... and the other sisters are just as impressive. You can not go wrong with anything you listen to from this band. They do NOT have a bad song. Dive in. You won't regret it. Their live clips are the best, and the Pepsi Center clips are the best of the best. But their studio videos are also amazing. And they have 10 years of material that is all fantastic. All that said, "Dust To Dust" is what made me a dedicated fan, back in 2018 when they released their show from the Lunario premiering their second full-length record, the concept album "Queen of the Murder Scene."
The Warning is the real deal 💯% pure 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great reaction! The Warning ladies are awesome! Have a great New Year🤘😎
Hey Man! Happy New Year!
@@dmusiclife5727 They have opened for the Foo Fighters,Muse, Guns n Roses, Def Leppard, Halestorm, Three day grace and several other bands and have done covers of the Foo Fighters.
@@dmusiclife5727 Check out their cover they did with Alessia Cara of the song Enter Sandman that appears on Metallica's Blacklist album.
They turned that song into their own. Recently they covered Alanis Morrisette " you aught to know" some say it's even better than the original.
Welcome to The Warning. Great hard rock band.
Hi you two, welcome over to the best rabbit hole in the world. That is no an over statement. You are going to love these three sisters and their journey thus far. Like Rush you won't be disappointed, I love you guys and I am proud of you. Music can slay worlds, enjoy The Warning. Guitarist - Daniella Villarreal Valez. Bass Player and youngest sister - Alejandra Villarreal Valez. Drummer, and Neil Peart fan Paulina Villarreal Valez. Enjoy and thankyou.
The legendary sisters from Mexico⚡️over a decade of greatness
The Warning are the future of hard rock. They have 11 years worth of videos and life shows on youtube, and the youngest sister just turned 20. Live performances are their super power. I hope to see more of them on your channel!
This song is the prologue to a musical story and concept album. It features the ghost of the protagonist appealing to the mourners at her funeral to listen to her story. The Spanish part is the priest preaching the sermon (it happens to be the voice of their manager). The rest of the story is about the girl or woman with a crush on someone who doesn't return her love. barely knows she exists. The story follows her into obsession, stalking, murder, madness and death. The story is "Queen of the Murder Scene", which is also the title song on the album. Well worth checking it out song by song. The concept was born in the mind of a 15 year old girl "going through her emo phase", but all three sisters fleshed it out, recorded, produced and released in 2018.
You have experienced only a drop of their awesomeness.
Thanks for reacting to The Warning. Enjoy this journey of discovery of the most exciting band on the scene.
Well, I see the Warning Army has everything under control in the comments section, guiding these new Warning reactors.
I watched you two when I went through my Tool awakening about a year ago, just found The Warning about 3 months ago, and they were good enough to knock me off of my Tool stool.
Looking forward to watching your discovery unfold of this Mexican classic rock band.
FYI: they all have gear reviews on UA-cam, you were wondering about Dani's setup.
As a 60 year old drummer with 45 years doing rock and roll covers. Never gets boring.
I discovered The Warning and I fall in love immediately. In my 56 I have done something that I have not done in the last 30 years, buy a disk of a "new" band (well, the band has 13 years), and no only one, but three because the second is sold out (for me the best one).
Waiting that April come soon to see they in live!!!
When they were kids they covered Foo Fighters songs Everlong and The Pretender. Look these old videos up to understand how they are so impressive now!
They were stunningly good so early… and have only gotten better.
My favorite rock/hard rock band.
Great reaction. I see The Warning Army has arrived in your comment section. You have no idea how much fun you will have going down this rabbit hole. I suggest your next reaction should be Evolve at the MTV VMAs. You will not be disappointed.They blew the roof off. Strap on your seatbelt and don't forget to turn it up. As all Warning fans say, "You have been Warned!"
Live is their super power ❤⚡⚡⚡🎶🤟🏻🤘🤟🏻
Down the Rabbit Hole we go!!!!!!
👍👍👍Awesomely awesome performance by these 3 talented ladies. 🖖❤
Excellent The Warning reaction guys!
The Villarreal-Velez sisters are amazing songwriters and performers from Mexico who live in Monterrey, San Pedro Garza Garcia, Nuevo Leon. Each one of their original songs is great. Their second album, "QUEEN OF THE MURDER SCENE" (2018), is a concept album. It follows a girl's journey into unrequited love; from infatuation and obsession on into stalking and murder, then madness and the fight over her soul. It is a masterpiece. It was nominated for Best Rock Album at the 2019 Independent Music Awards.
Their 1st full-length LP, "XXI CENTURY BLOOD" (2017), is also very good and is packed with many great songs. The video for the title track, "XXI Century Blood", was nominated for and won many awards.
Their very 1st released recordings are from their 6 song EP, "ESCAPE THE MIND" (2015); and it is amazing.
Despite being courted by numerous offers from many major record labels, The Warning have stayed independent through the years; relying on crowd funding to finance their projects. They refused to give up creative control over their material ... down to even the clothes they wear on stage.
After 7 months of negotiations, The Warning signed a 5 album recording contract with Lava/Republic Records/Universal Music Group in the fall of 2020.
They decided to release 1/2 (6 songs) of their completed 3rd full-length album in an EP called "MAYDAY" October 8th, 2021. The entire album was released June 24th, 2022: called "ERROR". "Disciple" is my favorite track!
Their 4th studio album, KEEP ME FED was released June 28th, 2024. They have released 7 singles: "MORE", "SICK", "HELL YOU CALL A DREAM", "AUTOMATIC SUN", "BURNOUT", "QUE MAS QUIERES", and "SIX FEET DEEP".
The Warning do not come from a family of musicians, however, their parents are huge fans of classic rock.
Both parents are professionals (recording engineer and dentist) and they enrolled their daughters into a private Catholic English Bilingual school Liceo de Monterrey, Mexico.
They also started the girls with classical piano lessons at ages 6, 4 and 5 years old.
Regular family functions included gathering around the TV with popcorn and watching LIVE concert dvds of legendary bands like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Queen and AC/DC.
When their parents got them the video game Rock Band at ages 8, 6 and 3, they went nuts playing it obsessively. Shortly thereafter they got real instruments with lessons from professional teachers: and the rest is history. Crazy they are 24, 22 and 20 years old and have already written, arranged, and released #57 original songs. They performed 2 songs at the 2023 MTV VMA's.
Drummer Paulina writes around 75% of The Warning's songs. Most of her songs begin in rock ballad form; starting with a concept, then chord progression, melody and basic song structure on the piano. She may only have a verse and a chorus when she brings it before her sisters. Together they transpose each instrument's part and "rockify" the song. They complete any lyrics, bridges and any arranging, etc. making changes along the way. A 2/3 approval vote of each instrument's part and each vocal harmony before it becomes a completed song. Paulina has said if not for her sisters, her songs would be different. Both guitarist Daniela and bassist Alejandra write equally great songs; just not as many.
Drummer Paulina won Drumeo's 2023 Rock Drummer of the Year and won Best Up and Coming Artist in Modern Drummer Magazine's 2023 reader's poll.
They performed AUTOMATIC SUN at the 2024 MTV EMA's (European) in Manchester, United Kingdom. 4 days later they performed QUE MA`S QUIERES at the 2024 LATIN GRAMMYS in Miami, Florida. Both performances highlighted songs that were nominated for an award. They were interviewed and performed 3 songs live on television in front of a large studio audience in France December 20th, 2024 on the Taratata show.
I was fortunate enough to get to meet them after their show January 16th, 2020 at The Whisky a Go-Go in Hollywood, California, USA. I had the opportunity to meet with them 3 more times during the 10 shows I attended on their 2022 North American MAYDAY Tour and 2023 ERROR WORLD TOUR. I met them again at Fingerprints Music in Long Beach California for a CD signing on the day their new album KEEP ME FED was released (June 28th, 2024) and the morning after they performed live on the Jimmy Kimmel show. I saw them again October 8th and 9th, 2024 in Los Angeles with a meet-n-greet on the second night.
Aside from their music, they are just normal, sweet, intelligent, and fun-loving young ladies who are truely grateful and endearing to their fans.
They really shine live: even better than their studio recordings.

Every song is a banger. Automatic sun at the MTV EMA’s is EPIC!!
Welcome to The Warning Army! Thanks for sharing! ❤
3 Sisters from Monterrey Mexico taking over the rock world.
You're barely scratching the surface of an 11-year history of the best, purest rock you'll ever hear, tons of musical and lyrical talent, and an amazing way of life, you'll be amazed
Three sisters from Monterrey Mexico who love to rock. They are an OUTSTANDING live band!! Well worth the effort to see in person. Daniela (Dany) guitar/lead vocals, Paulina (Pau) drummer/lead vocals (sometimes), Alejandre (Ale) bass/backing vocals.
So happy to see you guys doing the Warning :-), I followed you two almost religiously when I was going down the Tool rabbit hole. then a year ago I found the Warning and have since been going down the Warning rabbit hole, hope to see you guys join me down here :-).. these girls are the real deal, and DO NOT write a bad song.. you will probably be visited by the Warning Army (TWA) very soon here as well.. you may have seen these girls back in 2014 when they did a cover of Metallica's enter sandman and it went viral (Kirk Hammit said the drummer kicks ass). they were 14,12 and 9 at the time.
Same here :)
Yeah, the drummer practices singing while she is running on the treadmill, she's been doing it since she was a child. That's why she can sing so well while playing the drums.
❤️⚡🤘 welcome to The Warning!
Awesome reaction!
If you want easy reactions, just do their Pepsi Center CDMX concert. Every song is awesome.
The band is playing in Mexico city which sits at an altitud of 7300 feet in elevation so that is even more difficult for a drummer, less oxigen. And they are not from mexico city they are from the city of Monterrey Mexico. Different elevation, much lower. But all three are in excellent physical shape.
The drummer sings while she's running on a threadmill.
Welcome to The Warning !! These Ladies deliver "pure" Rock !!! 3 piece in your face.... !!! You will not find a bad song from them !!
The line 'dust to dust' is often used at (Catholic) funerals. The Spanish part is a sermon about salvation that has to be earned, and the Priest is played by their manager Rudy. Paulina (Pau [Pow]) is the one who writes the majority of their songs while composing on the piano. She sings lead or part lead on maybe a quarter of the songs and the oldest sister Daniela (Dany) is the regular lead. Youngest sister Alejandra (Ale [Ah-lay]) on bass normally only sings backing vocals, but occasionally takes over from Dany on a few songs, mostly when Dany is under the weather and needs to rest her voice.
Thank you. You have been warned!
🤘⚡🔥⚠🔥⚡🤘
Live is their Superpower!
Great reaction! 🙏
Live performing is their superpower! 🤘🔥⚡️
This song is the song that got me hooked 2 years ago and still has a permanent spot in my top five The Warning songs.
Try Martirio from this same concert, Evolve from the MTV VMA’s or Desciple from their Pepsi Centre concert.
Grtz from 🇳🇱
The Warning owns your souls now.
I subscribed to your channel. The Warning are a 3 sister rock band from Monterey Mexico. All 3 are musical prodigies. They are currently 25,23 and 20 and they have been a band for 12 years. That was their manager Rudy doing the speaking vocal in Spanish on the break. This concert was in Mexico City, they have toured the world. They are an incredible band. Keep reacting to them it is an amazing rabbit hole, but so worth it.
Thanks!

Welcome to The Warning!! Subscribed
I haven't heard much I really liked the last 20 years or so, but I have become a huge fan of Jinjer and The Warning. Very different bands but fresh music with lots of passion.
Welcome to The Warning. Paulina not only drums, sings, performs and writes the core of most of their songs, but also runs the show from behind the kit. For a small venue performance, try Evolve from the 2023 VMAs. For a bigger production, start with Disciple from the Pepsi Center concert. It is the concert a year after this show which had a crowd of 3000. The Pepsi Center is packed with 8000 and, like this, the full production is by the band and their team. Possibly the best rock concert I have seen in over 60 years of concerts.
The 👑 of Rock is keeping us Fed 🤘⚡🤘RORH
Welcome to our world. Your next reaction to TW can be ... any song! Literally, choose at random.
Thank you for the great reaction.
You are going to really love The Warning! After you check out some of their songs from recent concerts, you should check out their early days, they have their entire career/band development online, its pretty special.
genial reacción, me suscribo esperando mas reacciones hacia la mejor banda de ROCK de la actualidad... THE WARNING 🤘🤘🔥
Nice reaction to me this is the best version of this song I like a lot of them from Teatro Metropolitan later.❤️😎🇺🇸
The Warning Army has arrived!!!!
Nice first reaction to these three sisters from Mexico who love to rock and are badasses doing it!
First time on your channel and liked the vibe and enthusiasm. TWA (The Warning Army) has already started to arrive so here is a quick summary: Dany (Daniela, Guitar/Lead singer, now 24), Pau (“Pow”, Paulina, drums and sometimes lead vocals, 22) and Ale (“Ah-ley”, Alejandra, bass and backing vocals, just turned 20).
Their superpower is their live performances. They recently released a number of videos from their concert last year at the Pepsi Center CDMX (Mexico City). The video is 4k, the audio is HD and the energy is amazing. There are many options so to keep it simple, I’ll make 3 suggestions:
1 - suggest starting with the first song from the Pepsi Center concert: Disciple from the Pepsi Center - it explodes with energy. (The next song - “Z” is amazing too and has a really nice solo from Dany.)
2 - next: Hell you Call a Dream official live also from the Pepsi Center.
3 - Evolve from their MTV VMAs performance in October 2023. It’s a terrific performance and often the first original song that folks get introduced to.
As long as you get the videos from their YT channel, you should not have any copyright infringement issues.
Subbed for more TW.
Welcome to the fandom! ♥ these chikas!
I suggest these The Warning songs: Money, Sick, Disciple, Automatic Sun, Enter Sandman (with Alessia Cara) & Evolve (live VMAs)
I also suggest another all female rock band from Japan - Band Maid! Both bands are friends & fans of each other
I suggest these Band Maid songs: Thrill, Dice, Manners, Bubble, No God (live) & Puzzle (live)
They also released a song collab a few months back called - Show Them
If you follow the trend of most reactors the next song you react to will be your favorite, no matter which one you choose. I can't choose a favorite because all their songs are good! They are super talented and are in their 11th year of being a band. Their official videos are really good but live really show their talent. I really like the Teatro concert, but the Pepsi Center and the Poland concerts are top notch and the most recent. There are some songs in each concert that are not performed at the others, so I go back and forth between their concerts including their Lunario concert from 2018 when they were 13, 16 and 19. They also did 2 TedX Talks that are worth watching also.
Pau, the drummer, sings or shares lead vocals with Dany on about 20% of the band’s songs; she trains by singing while running on a treadmill. While all three sisters participate in the songwriting process, many of the songs start with Pau on piano, then bringing a proto-song to the other two for full composition. Not this one, though - this song, particularly the bass riff, is largely credited to Ale, who started work on it at 11. (The QOTMS album came out when she was about 13.)
Dany is kinda the “first among equals” as the frontwoman and the main vocalist, but all three can sing (Ale, the bassist, doesn’t sing often, but she and Pau have both stepped in at times when Dany needed to rest her voice).
There’s a steadily growing “library” for this band. They have a number of OMVs and live performances on their channel, including the 2018 Lunario concert, featuring a full live performance of QOTMS, the full concert this performance was taken from, 2022 Teatro Metropolitan CDMX (Mexico City), and one a year later at the Pepsi Center CDMX. Specifically for the benefit of reactors like you, none of the stuff on their channel has the copyright tag turned on; whenever there’s been a copyright issue with their performances, it’s always been when a third party is involved.
There’s no wrong path down the rabbit hole, although I consider this a good start - you’ve hit the “starts with a killer bass riff,” “the drummer sings,” and “great live stage presence” tags off the bat. I would mostly agree with other commenters that the live performances have an energy that you just can’t get from the studio tracks, but when there’s a real OMV for a song, like with “Choke,” “Six Feet Deep,” or “Que MAs Quieres?” you should check it out as well.
One thing you will find is that this band has a long relationship with “Enter Sandman.” They did a straight cover in their basement when they were 14, 12, and 9, and the video went viral (now up to 26 million+ views), and was even praised by Metallica (Kirk Hammet was quoted as saying “That drummer kicks maximum ass!”) In 2021, they worked with Canadian singer Alessia Cara to produce a completely reimagined version, which became track #1 on Metallica’s Blacklist album. They’ve performed this version live with Alessia once at the Troubadour in LA; at the TM and PC concerts, they’ve had some of her vocals on a backing track. The Pepsi Center performance also included a string section for added umph.
Welcome to The Warning Army 🤟🤟🤟
Buena reacción! 🤘🏼🇲🇽🤘🏼🇲🇽🤘🏼🇲🇽 The Warning: tres hermanas mexicanas, Daniela (🎤🎸), Paulina (🥁🎤) y Alejandra (🎸🎤). Rock ecléctico!! “Han sido advertidos “
Dany (short for Daniela) gets her killer guitar sound by using a Kemper profiler pedalboard; it spits out two channels... and one of the channels has a harmonizer with a 10ms delay and an octave shift down one octave... with different overdrive effects and whatever other effects are needed for the song. This gives the illusion of there almost being a second guitarist on stage. Sounds amazing and full. Their live sound is almost always better than their studio sound... they are a true live band. Dig deeper... you won't be disappointed by this band... best band of their generation. You have been WARNED! (That's a good thing, I promise.) ;-)
DPA (TW) is taking over the global rock banner!
They are at the forefront and will lead the way in the genre!
Great reaction from both of you and I'm excited to know that if you keep reacting to more of this power trio's material they will soon be your favorite band too, inevitably!!
That's for sure... That's the warning!!
Because as you get to know TW better you discover that their music is steeped in various rock styles but invariably it’s pure rock.
And I continue to reaffirm my humble but very personal opinion that their structure, their cuts, transitions, rhythm changes, modulations, choruses, pre-choruses, drum attacks, their endings... All of it is masterful.
The great beauty of their art is in its simplicity but all of this always seems to be at the right time and in the right way, bordering on perfection, with sophistication predominating.
There could always be other options, but the ones they choose seem to be the exact ones to create a masterpiece of art.
Also impregnating everything with a natural touch of inevitable sensuality that only adds improvements and with the feeling, sensitivity and passion of their blood, race and culture.
Each of their pieces can be very different, but always with all the flavor of TW.
It’s very clear that these sisters have no limits.
They have that gift that only belongs to the geniuses that appear among us every certain period of time.
This is the youngest veteran band in the world of rock!!
Without forgetting that they are only three, yes, but three authentic geniuses in their specialization.
Melodically they are the best, without a doubt, because they are the queens of the hook, the riff, the changes of tonality, the contagious rhythms, the catchy melodies, the sublime voices, the unbeatable harmonies and the ambiguous but deep and powerful messages.
And this happens song after song… INCREDIBLE!!
And all of the above is exponentially enhanced in each of their live performances. Individually there is also a lot of material to tell about the band, about this power-trio of sisters who are the new "masters of Rock":
The Warning ⚡

Bye from New Zealand💐👍👋🇳🇿twa
Pau had been singing while drumming since she was a child… 2nd nature for her. They all started at an early age. Opening for Def Leppard when Bassist, Alejandra, was just 12. A year later they opened for The Killers (and a crowd of 30K).
Just subscribed in hopes of more from The Warning.
Thanks!
love the War Cry Cuidad de Mexico! Welcome to Mexican Rock n Roll brought to you by 3 amazing talented sisters from Monterey Mexico 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
The Spanish you heard in the background is a prerecorded sermon spoken by their manager Rudy Joffroy. In the original performance of Dust to Dust, Rudy joined them on stage in the role of a preacher to deliver a Spanish sermon to the audience. He was later replaced by that background track. All three of the sisters can take turns singing solo or lead while playing their instruments. The vocal abilities of both the drummer and the guitarist/lead singer have impressed older veteran bands they have opened for that each or both have been invited to sing lead by these bands for some of their songs. The drummer Pau was DRUMEO’s Best Rock Drummer of 2023. Metallica invited The Warning to collab with Canadian singer Alessia Cara to rework Enter Sandman for the Blacklist album. Check their version of Enter Sandman that they did for Metallica live at the Pepsi Center.
The fact that is so rare for a drummer to sing lead people see it right in front of there eyes and don't believe it. At the beginning he says "I don't know if the drummer sings" Great reaction.
If you guys ever get the chance to see this band live TAKE IT!. They absolutely kick ass live. This is one of my fave songs of theirs. Dany on the lead guitar is the main vocalist I would say but Pau (drums) does take the lead on some songs. Their harmonies on are point as well.
The Warning ⚡🔥⚡🔥⚡🔥
If you want another song were the drummer also shines, check out the song "23" also from this concert.
Thank you
You gotta react to more of their songs. They are great..
Great reaction. Please check out the songs from their concert at the Pepsi Center CDMX.
🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥
Enjoyed the reaction...these young ladies are 🔥🔥🔥
Paulina has been singing while destroying the drums since a very very young age. They all three have been playing while singing since the beginning. It's second nature to them. Also spanish is their native language which is mindblowing since they also speak perfect english.
5:39, funny you should mention that, one of their early cover songs when they were kids was "Everlong", they also did "The Pretender" a couple of years later.
I loved your reaction to the Tool songs. As a proud member of the Tool Army, their music has always been the cornerstone of my playlist... until I discovered The Warning. Now, I find myself firmly in the ranks of The Warning Army, and for good reason. The connection between Tool and The Warning might not be immediately obvious, but both bands evoke something profound and authentic. What truly sets The Warning apart is their incredible talent at such a young age, which opens up endless possibilities for their future. They’ve already achieved so much, but it’s their potential for innovation and evolution as musicians that makes them truly exciting. It’s not just about what they’ve done-it’s about the promise of what’s to come. Remember, you’ve been warned.
