    Liliac has a lot of talent. Musicianship is really good and Melody's vocals are spectacular. I found The Warning and Liliac at the same time. For me it's all about song writing. This is my opinion but The Warning just writes much better songs. That's the thing.

    I have never understood why there should be any rivalry between fan groups. There’s plenty of room in the world of music for both bands. While I am primarily a TW fan, I have always appreciated Liliac’s musicianship and their covers, and Melody has a powerful and unique voice. However, I do agree with Dave that for me, their originals have been hit or miss, and if they want to make it to the next level, they need to focus on original music just as TW did years ago. This will probably be unpopular speculation with Liliac fans, but I wonder sometimes how much influence their father has on their creative choices and whether at some point, it might be necessary to bring in outside management or advice, since I’m not sure he has always made the right choices with regards to what they do.

      Troll, troll! Actually, you have a point. The Warning's parents have said that they don't even know what the band is composing until it's done (or if asked to comment, e.g., Spanish/English translations) and, if they object, give way to the girls' will, e.g., Copper Bullets. Liliac are obviously a group of talented kids who, if allowed to repeatedly flex their creative muscles without interference, will most likely come up with more cool stuff.

    They have to overcome the public's impression that their volume of covers defines them. They are obviously great musicians as their meticulously performed covers attest, but their original music has never impressed me that much. This song is an exception, as it points to their experimentation. As a member of TWA, I can tell you that most of those who follow TW could not care less about the petty rivalry between the band's fanbases. It originated from an off hand comment Melody made a while back when she was asked if they would open for TW and she said TW could open for them. She recanted that statement later on. That's good enough for me. The Fangs fight with TWA from my perspective seems mostly on their side of the fence. Having said that, there are members of TWA who will never forgive "the bats". Whatever. I don't think either TW or Liliac harbor any ill feelings toward one another. The fanbases would do well to respect that. I also think you are basically right about TW's music being out of its time, but I also think they are experimenting with their sound as well and their newest stuff that we have heard from their October headliner shows in Mexico back is a departure from 80s style sound. I think they are fusing elements of modern pop music with more classic Rock sounds. That is exciting and I'm looking forward to it.

I witnessed the same rivalry between The Beatles and the Rolling Stones in their fledgling years ,and look what both bands achieved .

    the biggest mistake Lilliac ever made was to appear on the talent shows, i think all that did was to inflate their perception of where they were at, and in all honesty i think their lazy are not 100% invested and don't work near hard enough, they put out an album in 2023 and would have done barely 30 - 40 shows for the whole year and even then 1/2 their sets were covers, their idea of marketing is supplying a link and telling their fans to promote it, hence them trying to shortcut their way by doing covers and spending way too much time trying to recreate others sound and transfer that to their original music, rather than concentrating on developing their own unique sound, they are all over the place there is nothing distinctly Lilliac in any of their originals other than Melody trying recreate Dio's vocals in every song they have not learnt restraint, just because you can do it doesn't necessarily mean you have to, and until such time as they bite the bullet and hire the best experienced producer they can afford, someone who not afraid to say how it is and address their flaws and help them develop their own unique style, they will be just another copy/ paste cover band and anyone disputing that they are not a cover band just have a look at their original single Carousel they released 7mths ago has 433k views against their latest cover Heaven and Hell released 2 weeks ago having 610k views and its the same story with any of their originals vs covers and it has nothing to do with being independent or being signed

    My 2 cents:
    I discovered Liliac a few months before I discovered The Warning (around 2017-18). There is no doubt that Sam is a phenomenal guitar player and Melody can belt with the best of them. What has separated the bands, however, has been the Warning’s desire to put their own Art (as Dany describes it) out into the World while Liliac has been putting out Perfect covers. Pau is…well…Pau. Her lyrics and musicianship are complemented by her sister’s incredible talent. They constantly are working on new music while Liliac uses its time in learning and re-doing the music of others. Which ultimately sets them back. “Yeah. It’s cool; but what ELSE can you do? Are you a Musician, or are you a technician?”. This will be unpopular, but one of the biggest things holding her back is Melody’s “need” to be under the wing of Ronnie James Dio. She even changed her name to MeloDia….as in the feminine version of MeloDio. It holds her back. She needs to write her own music-go back to being Melody!
    The Warning has out-paced Liliac and will continue to do so until Liliac defines/discovers who they truly are!

    I didn't really like this song the first time I heard it but after listening to it a few times, I have come to love this song. Melody's vocals on this are really what makes it work. I am so happy Liliac is not trying to play today's style music. We have too much of current style music already. There has never been a greater time in music than the 1970' and 1980's. I think Liliac is doing a great job of producing both original and covers in a good mix.

    As a long time TW fan I’ve never understood this “rivalry” with Liliac. I’ve been a member of TW’s Patreon four years and I’ve never even seen a discusión of Liliac there. I’ve dealt with plenty of troll comments on YT reactions of TW, but none of them identified themselves as Liliac supporters. I’m admittedly not a Liliac fan but I’ve also never made any negative comments about them. TWA by and large conduct themselves in a very positive manner, much as the band does. There’s just too many good things to focus on with the sisters to get caught up in a contrived competition with the angry segment of Liliac’s fanbase.

The groups are completely different in the music they produce and their image. For me I'm more of a Warning fan but also enjoy Liliac. This song was good. I think what holds Liliac back is their dad. I think outside influence would give Liliac a much-needed infusion of new ideas and direction.

    Awesome song. One of the best I've heard from them so far. Sam by himself was very good, but I was glad to see Melody join in. Their combined energy really lifted the song at the end. It does have a classic rock style, yet it still comes across as very original and well composed. I enjoy their covers as much as anyone, but their original material is what will keep me checking their new releases.

    This is a good song. I like the honesty. What infuriates me about Liliac is all the dissing of record labels. We get it they are independent. No question a band can succeed that way. But other bands are signed and can succeed both financially and artistically as a label band. Yes, it's true labels can also screw things up but so can bands that are so stuck in the past that they don't evolve. Liliac has made their own choices and I respect that. But don't use it as an excuse. It grows old.

    Their fans are half the problem with the rivalry, although that has subsided dramatically since they faced the reality that Liliac is never going to be anything more than a cruise ship band. Whatshername from Liliac created a ton of drama a while back when she said The Warning would open for them if they toured together. Meanwhile TW was enjoying huge success that Liliac still hasn’t achieved.

I am of course a TW Army for life. I only knew about it when a TW Reactor put the squabble about it. I have watched most all of the Interviews with The Warning, and They are so humble and when Allison asked about If they knew about Nandy Budsnell Dany says she has encouragement and said "I think she could teach us a few things.

Liliac seems to stay focused on controlling their own path which is fine, but I dont see them moving any further than a UA-cam sensation. They both put out quality music, but I see different career paths...unless Liliac makes some changes soon.

      I think that TW's management and commercial relationships are powering their ascent, to their benefit. I imagine the boardroom wrangling that got them placed in the VMAs - Pepsi owns Frito-Lay which owns Doritos, and Lava/Republic/UMG is a monster record company who, it seems to me, chose to flex their muscles due to successful lobbying by TW's A&R people at Lava. Just my guesses, of course. The minutes of the VMAs show are a very valuable resource for MTV to allocate to a band that wasn't even a nominee.

      There are a select group of fans, a small minority, that dont like that The Warning has done so much more commercially than Liliac. They put it down to the fact that they have a label, that they have used their looks to get ahead, that they write songs that are too pop driven etc. Non o f which i believe to be the case. I simply think its been a case of hard work, good song writing and having a constant goal. For liliac thy have the passion to do the music but for years they struggled to work out what the band was about and what their sound was. Even today it still seems unsure, its like they are hedging their bets on trying to appeal to various groups and seeing which one takes. If it were me i would focus on getting a cohesive look and focus on the writing of an album and then re launch the band. I would also avoid covers for atleast 2 years, if the originals are good enough they can build a fan base on those from their current fans etc.

      I think The Warning as a whole are the phenom. They’re the whole package and it’s hard to find a fault between the three of them. Other than maybe they’re a little short. But it’s the whole package that makes them succeed.

      I would say Melody has a very strong and distinct vocal delivery and that makes her stand out in a good way from many of the other vocalists out there. I personally think she reall needs to work out what is best for her and put a plan together. Her theatrical performance can sometimes feel un balanced and this can be a distraction. She has alot of potential.

      They built their following by playing covers so well that they got a lot of attention from fans of those songs. They're gradually expanding their repertoire and reaching out to new fans, but they haven't forgotten their base, and they keep mixing in new covers for them. It certainly seems to work for them. I was amazed the first time I saw kids playing Crazy Train (and doing it really well), and all the other covers they did really hooked me. Now I love a lot of their originals, too. Their approach may not work for you, but it works for a heck of a lot of their fans.

      When i did some earlier reviews of them the comments would always get people going on about the two bands so on this ne i decided to face into it head on to stay ahead of the comments. Of the two bands i am more of a The Warning fan although they have tracks im not a big fan of. Liliac have some great songs but also some tracks that i personally have no interest in. The potential for liliac is there , they just need to try and focus on consistancy, everytime i get some sort of video or post from them they are trying out different looks and styles etc. This is fine when your starting out but right now i think they should stop the covers for two years, stabilise the overall look of the band and focus on getting new videos and writting new material. Something that is more stable and rooted then they can develop and bring their fans with them. It a personal opinion and i will continue to support them and see how they grow.

    • @gregoryvlchek269
      @gregoryvlchek269 Рік тому +2

      The Warning sing like girls? Yeah, that's because they ARE girls. Go figure. Hahahaha!
      On the other hand, yes, Melody has an outstanding voice, but there's nothing truly original about her. She can't seem to just be herself (whatever that is), and get over and beyond the imitating Ronnie James Dio thing.
      The one main negative thing about Liliac is that they've seemed more concerned about being so-called 'rock stars' than simply serious well-educated, well-trained and disciplined musicians. I blame the poor influence and misguidance of their father for that.
      He somehow irrationally and ignorantly thought that the novelty of them being young decent musicians would be enough to make them super successful. BUT, that novelty wore off once they aged and the harsh reality set in that success comes down to the learned ability to actually consistently write great songs. PERIOD.
      For ten years, The Warning has surpassed and continues to surpass Liliac in all the above aspects in spades. Their FIRST priority from the beginning has been to be the very best, well-rounded musicians they can be, without ego, without being posers and without being on a 'Rockstar' trip. And, the proof is in the pudding, as they say. Their continued and increasing success year after year has been hard-earned by discipline and honest, pure work ethic; nothing less and nothing more.
      You don't earn and aren't awarded scholarships to attend a Berklee College of Music Summer Youth Program at ages 10, 13 and 15 like The Warning girls did to study music theory, composition and stage performance by the novelty of young age. It's earned by already being trained musicians in classical piano literally since the ages of 4, 6 and 7 and then bass, drums and guitar at ages 7, 6 and 8 respectively.
      THAT'S where success and great songwriting ability begins.
