This was January 2017 when they were 16, 14, and 12. This is the performance that made me a fan. I couldn't believe three little girls from Mexico were bringing back the classic hard rock sound. Flashed back to my teenage years in the 1970s. And then to find out they were an independent band trying to make it on their own and rejecting the music industry until they could do what they loved on their own terms. Happy to say they are today very happy, very successful, and very appreciative of their fans and supporters.

Dany was asked why not more guitar and drum solos and her reply was “it’s about The Warning as a group, not individuals”. Check out Alé playing Hysteria at 9 years old if you’re willing to be schooled on the bass.

Ale blows me away while she's speaking to the crowd. No fear and so eloquent especially considering English is her second language. Huge shout out to Mom and Dad who stuck with them and gave them the opportunity to grow and become professional musicians.

It is to be noted that the bassist in these performance 12 years old, the drummer 15 and the guitarist 17.

It seems like you expect The Warning to perform like other bands, having guitar solos and stuff. If you were listening to their speech, they talked about how people were trying to change them into something they are not. You can't expect every band to be the same.

This is now the best band in the planet!

Great start of their beginnings. They are not a Metal band…Rock/Hard Rock is where I would put them in. I heard you mention a few songs from their most recent album which I recommend to do next: Evolve, Choke, Disciple and Z. 🤘😎🔥🔥🔥

Great reaction good thing you started with their older material can’t wait to see you react to their newer stuff it will blow your mind to see how good they have become if they were good already at the Tedx they are way better now thanks again and have a good one

I found this band in September in a KZfaq reaction channel checking tracks from the new EP Mayday. I was very impressed. Then I saw this TEDx video and their philosophy as a band and I decided to be a small patreon because they deserve it!

They lean more toward rock and hard rock rather than metal, but they have done some covers of metal songs in the past. The one original song of theirs that I'd say is the closest thing to metal would be the title track to "Queen of the Murder Scene".

As noted by many they were quite young here but still playing at a professional level. BTW, English is their second language.

Great 1st time reaction, Keep your foot on the gas cause it's only gonna get better. I'm 70 years old I've been listening to them for a couple of years. They are real rockers⚡⚡⚡⚘⚘⚘

As others have pointed out this is were they were 4-5 years ago. They were good then. They have gotten even better. When you're that young and the surviving legends of rock are paying attention to you, thats a sign they should be watched.

They play Rock! The Goddess of Thunder is not just any bass player!

I might suggest Evolve from their current EP. Came out last year. As of today they are 21(Dany: singer/guitar, 19(Pau: drums/ vocals, lead on about 20% of their songs), and 17(Ale: bass/backing vocals)

Great and honest reaction. Go to their KZfaq channel, be prepared to go down this rabbit hole and pick a song. ANY song. You won't be disappointed. These ladies are the future of Rock n Roll. As Pau says (the drummer) and all Warning fans say, "You have been Warned!"

Thanks for the reaction, and wait until you see them now! That was over five years ago, and they've grown in musicianship and released another independent album and now an EP under Lava records. Dany's (the guitarist) best guitar solos are Z off of Mayday, and The End from Queen of the Murder Scene. You won't find the kind of breakout solos you mentioned in their songs, however. All of their instrumentals and vocals are meant to enhance the song. A good song is typically put on hold during a solo, so it rarely does anything for the mood.

If you want a better look at the guitarists at this age, check out these covers they did: Foo Fighters, The Pretender, out of the basement version; Muse, Hysteria @LICEO. Note at the beginning of Hysteria, Ale (bassist) is trick playing by switching her hand over the top of the neck.

Not metal but hard rock, great band, great reaction 👍

Lets not forget that they were about 15 , 13 , and 11 here and all improved alot since then .

The Warning is highly addictive, you've been Warned! 🤘

Ale, the one on the left is the youngest, the tallest and apparently the quietest. Her bass playing is endorsed. The total package is explosive

Excellent reaction. Welcome to The Warning's World

They are alot older now and just put out a new EP check out from their Mayday album "Evolve", "Animosity", "The Disciple", and "Choke" all awesome they are no longer itty bitty.

I think if you get into their newer stuff, you'll be pleasantly surprised how far they HAVE come. With 2 full albums, and 2 EPs under their belts, and another on the way, they will be a force to be reckoned with in the rock world. Little Ale the bass player ain't so little anymore and at 17 she is now head and shoulders above her sisters, and her bass work rivals some of the best. Dany's vocals and guitar work have both gotten exponentially better, and Pau is coming up with drum riffs that will knock your socks off. Her style has gotten a lot more efficient, so it doesn't seem she's working her ass off to get through a song now. The list of songs that were provided in the other comments are great choices, and I'll take a chance and put some emphasis on their recent re-imagination of Enter Sandman featured on the new Metallica Blacklist album. Featuring Canadian pop artist Alessia Cara, they completely turned the song on it's ear (which is kind of what Metallica was after when they first posed this challenge). At any rate, it's one of the best cover versions I've ever heard, and I've been around a lot longer than Metallica has.🤣 Great first reaction man.. looking forward to more. These young ladies are pretty special! 🤘😎🤘

This was 5 years ago....you should see them now! By the way, hard rock not metal....

Only gonna get better, hahaha. There’s a truck barreling towards you!!!!

I love it when reactors play the whole TEDx Talk. These ladies ROCK! All of them have raised their games since this performance. Dany's vocals (the oldest on guitar) are on another galaxy skill-wise as are her chops on the axe. Ale (the youngest on bass and also the tallest now) is a contract Spector Bass musician with her own signature model. Her bass lines are pure poetry. Pau (POW!), well I don't have to sell you on her. As much as I try to be impartial and spread the love I always seem to have a little extra for her. She's a Genius full stop and probably the most bad ass person in any room she enters. loved your reaction, subbed up and looking forward to more. I LOVE THIS BAND !! ✌💖🎼

Can’t wait for your next reaction! Thank you 🙏🏻

hey man you are at the beggining of the story, these girls are awesome, as musicians, as song writers, as persons, they are always in touch with their fans. take a look of their present. subed

If I only knew how far this Reaction would take me down the Rabbit Hole. I Fucking Love this Band.

This is old material, I'll check back when you get to current content from them.

Welcome to your new addiction you have been Warned 🤘 😎 ⚠️

Their music has gotten progressively harder-edged, as you'll see when you do 'Evolve' and the other songs you mentioned. Spector is producing a Signature Series bass in the name of that young bassist and has a color called "Ale's Inferno" after her (her name is Alejandra, 'Ale' for short) that you can select when you have them build a custom bass.

Music is passion. Music is hope. Music is life.

Great reaction and I think you’ll love their new stuff and to see how far they’ve come from this old video

You should see where they have gone since then! Love, love, love these girls and their music!

Watching your video again 9 months of enjoying The Warning, you are now a proud member of TWA🤘🔥

In an interview a few years back they were asked who is the best musician of the group. Dany and Pau both said Ale the bassist.

What shocked me about The Warning the first time I heard them was not their musicianship, which was good, but their lyrical sensibilities. They write deeply layered, sensitive songs. Some of them are tear-jerkers. Some of them will make you think, "How the hell did a 13-year-old Pau write that?" All three of their albums contain really well-put-together songs. They're not always musically complex, but they succeed as messages. Their body of work is quite a rabbit hole. I see that phrase a lot among the Warning Army's comments. It's great to see kids grow up living their dreams, and I think this video illustrates that nicely. They show amazing poise and courage playing in front of audience after audience very consistently. Their behind the scenes videos are worth watching for insights on their creative process and work environment. They have MASTERED the use of social media to addict their fans to their brand. I loved the MTV guy who sees them in the hall after their VMA appearance and says, "Holy Shit! I'm a fan! Fantastic!"

You have to remember, at this recording in 2017 they were Dani 17 (Danielle, guitar/vocals), Pau 15 (Paulina, drums/vocals), and Ale 12 (Alejandra, bass/vocals). Even at this age they rocked the house.

Thanks for reacting to the best power trio on the scene today! You ain’t seen nothin yet! I don’t have to recommend the next songs to check out, you just read the playlist. Let’s do this! BTW, The Warning Army fanbase is the best and most passionate I’ve ever been a part of!

Pau (drummer) is just great and a beast. She sings alone and she never runs out of breath despite the drums. And what a voice. All three are great and only three and rock everything.

Dust to dust LIVE at Foro Didi. Paulina is killing it.

To be the first time q reacts to the Warning, I choose a good concert and good songs, so he saw them when they were just making themselves known with their original music, as advice I would tell you q react to their first songs and concerts for q fence seeing the progress q they have been having, that yes I tell you q no song is bad, all are good, greetings and more from the Warning 🤘🏻⚡

I wouldn't say they're quite metal, really, but more a really tantalizing mix of female singer-songwriter alt-pop with good old freaking hard rock, with great vocals and harmonies, and some of the most thoughtful lyrics I've heard in decades. Oh and more hooks than any freakin' autotuned pop song. They've been mixing in even m ore genres in their more recent stuff. Little girls have become young ladies!

Great 1st time reaction to The Warning Touchy! If my memory serves me correctly, they were 17, 15, and 12 years old here. They have continued to progress a long way since then. You will be surprised how good the bass player Ale` is now. The Villarreal sisters are amazing songwriters and performers. Each one of their original songs is great. Their second album, "Queen of the Murder Scene", 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... 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", 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"; 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 last fall. They recently decided to release 1/2 (6 songs) of their completed 3rd full-length album in an EP called Mayday. "Disciple" is my favorite track! The Warning do not come from a family of musicians, however, their parents are huge fans of classic rock. Both parents are professionals (civil engineer and dentist) and they enrolled their daughters into a private Catholic English speaking 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. A year or so later, they got "real" instruments with lessons from professional teachers: and the rest is history. Amazing they are 21, 19 and 17 years old and have already written and arranged #44 original songs all by themselves! The oldest, Dany (Daniela) plays guitar, keyboards, lead vocals on 75% of their songs, backing harmonies. Pau (Paulina) plays drums, keyboards, lead vocals on 25% of their songs, backing harmonies. Ale` (Alejandra) plays bass, keyboards, backing harmonies. The drummer Pau begins writing around 75% of their songs. In her songs, she starts with a concept, then works on chord progressions and basic song structure on piano while adding lyrics. She then brings it before her sisters and together they transpose each individual instrument's part; making changes along the way. They also complete the lyrics together; since Pau may only bring one verse and a chorus. All 3 must unanimously approve of each instrument's part and each vocal harmony before it becomes a completed song. Nothing is set in stone until it makes it through the gauntlet. Pau has said if not for her sisters, her songs would be different. Both Dany and Ale` write equally great songs; just not as many. I was fortunate enough to get to meet them after their show January 16th, 2020 at The Whisky a Go-Go in Hollywood, California. Aside from their music, they are just normal, sweet, intelligent, and fun-loving young ladies who are truely grateful and endearing to their fans. Thank you for your feedback. I am looking forward to watching you discover this great band. 🤘🤓💯

This is a band that grows on you. They get better with each record. Give them another year to two years and they will be really great. The new record is better than all the other stuff , they have put out. You can really tell their maturity. Good band.

CONGRATULATIONS, YOU HAVE JUST DISCOVERED THE JEWELS IN THE CROWN OF ROCK IN THE 21ST CENTURY. OK REACTION, THAT'S WHY THE WARNING, IS THE WARNING!!!. SIMPLY AND SIMPLY 3 SISTERS, FROM THE BEGINNING THEY SOUND AS IF THEY WERE 5 OR MORE, THEY COMPOSE EXCELLENT SONGS (MUSICALLY AND LYRICALLY) THEY ARE A SPECTACLE WHEN THEY ARE ON STAGE, THEIR SYNCHRONICITY IS PERFECT AND THEY ARE ERUDITE OF THEIR MUSICAL INSTRUMENT INCLUDING THEIR VOICES. THEY DON'T HAVE TO DRESS UP IN ANIME COSTUMES, THEY DON'T HAVE TO MAKE STRANGE NOISES, THEY DON'T HAVE TO MAKE GUTTURAL SOUNDS TO PRETEND THEY ARE SINGING, THEY DON'T MAKE PITY BY SAYING THEY ARE POOR, AND THEIR VIEWS ARE AUTHENTIC, NOT BOTS, THAT'S WHY THEY ARE THE ROCK REVOLUTIONARIES OF THE 21ST CENTURY. THEY ARE NUMBER ONE! EVEN IF THE COMPETITION HIVES AT THEM. THIS ALREADY PROVES ALEJANDRA'S MASTERY! 17 YEARS OLD!!!! PAULINA 19! AND DANIELA ¡¡21!! FANTASTIC AND GREAT! LONG LIVE THE WARNING!!! SUSCRITO Y LIKE SOLO POR THE WARNING.

For me what a great song is the lyrics with a good to great sound behind it. My favorite song from them is Black Holes from their 1st album. They don't have a bad song.

That Bass player the youngest of the 3 sisters is named ALEJANDRA and was only about 14 years old when this Ted talks was recorded!

After you watched this you should watch newer stuff just to see how much they evolved. Ale(jandra), the bass player, is an official spector artist now (and the tallest of the three sisters). If you ever thought "i've seen this drummer before" then you watched Animal of the muppet show. Pau(lina) is an animal! And Dani(ela) got so much control over her voice now, also her guitar play rised up a lot. At this TedX they were just 16 (Dani), 14 (Pau) and 12 (Ale).

Thanks for reacting to The Warning... but you have seen nothing yet!

The Warning are more hard rock than metal band.

You have been Warned!! 🔥⚡🔥

Here is a live stream from a few months ago. Evolve: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mt6paLqAtprVlps.html

I swear, I haven't seen ANYONE hit the drums like that since the days of Bonzo and Moonie... girl's CRAZY good.

They now have three great albums out and an EP (their first attempt at writing their own music). They have finally been signed by a music company. "Survive" is off the first album and is one of my favorite song by The Warning.

The Animosity track will blow you away

Cool Reaction! This was 5 years ago and you have no idea how amazing they are now. You are right that you won't get a lot of "shreddy" guitar solos, but don't under estimate Daniela (guitar) or Alejandra (bass). Since this video Daniela (here 17, now 21yo, 22 later this month) has sponsorships from Rick Toone Guitars (he is a custom luthier), Manson Guitars and PRS guitars, and her voice is incredible! Alejandra (Here 12, now 17yo) is the youngest ever Spector Bass Artist and now plays a USA Custom 5-string Spector and has her own signature line of Spector basses coming out soon. All three are classically trained on piano (basically since kindergarten) and all three sing. And since this performance they have released a second album independently. It is a concept album called Queen of the Murder Scene, and it is a Masterpiece! In July 2020 after being pursued by many major labels, finally signed with Lava/Republic Records to a 5 record deal. They recorded a new album and have released the first 6 tracks as an EP called Mayday. Every track is a KILLER! Their incredible songwriting sets them head and shoulders above any new band I have heard in decades! They are also one of the few bands that is even better live! Check out their newer work and you will be impressed for sure! You've been Warned!

Excellent first time reaction and review of The Warning. I do remember recommending The Warning to you and why you should start with this TedX performance. It gives you an important baseline on which to form your next reactions to them because of their young ages here. This TedX was several years ago and they are literally exploding now on the music scene with music videos, albums, and live performances. They have really grown, musically and physically, and polished their act and recently signed with Lava Records. Ale (Alexandra) has really come into her own as a powerful bassist. And they also speak excellent English (wink, wink). Sadly, their recently scheduled North American concert tour has had to be postponed. In the meantime, there are notable videos titled Sandman, Evolve, Choke, and Disciple. Some of their shows at the Whisky-a-Go-Go are also worth taking in. You have been Warned. And thanks for the shout out!

the first appearance of the "helicopter ponytail"

They saved my faith to Rock n’ Roll. Three amazing sisters. Viva The Warning 🔥❤️🤘🇫🇮

Good reaction! At the time of this concert they were 16, 14 and 12. Amazing!! In more recent years they developed great skills and guitar player has an amazing voice! Viva The Warning !! ⚡⚡⚡

You have been warned! Now go and look at what they're doing now with their new "Mayday" EP, especially the live versions of the songs. I'm a not-so-young-anymore big fan of this band and their rock sound, and you will be surprised. After this album, they came out with an amazing concept album called "Queen of the Murder Scene", with superb songwriting and a professional attitude enormously beyond the prejudice their ages might stir in us. Then they signed with Lava for the latest EP. Daniela (Dany) on guitar, Alejandra (Ale) on bass and Paulina (Pau) on drums might just seem like the future of rock, but they're not. They're the present of our music.

Dany, the guitarist doesn't do a lot of solos, she kind of reminds me of Joey Ramone. But when she does, they are amazing. The song 21st Century Blood has a beautiful solo in it.

lol The Warning will surprise you and then you have been warned! :) you will see...

a high school sophomore, freshman & 7th grader - Amazing!

You Have Been Warned! Nice reaction

Best power trio in the world! Period!

I can just see it now he was skeptical and now like the great Wayne world's movie he is bowing down saying I'm not worthy I'm not worthy😂😂😂

Good start. Welcome to my favorite band (that comes from a 40-yr musician). Hope you find them as enjoyable as the rest of us

Ah yes, the one that hooked me, aren't they just amazing.

Who categorized them as metal knows very little about metal music and all it’s subgenres. The Warning plays heavier rock.

You Have Been Warned! There's no turning back! I've been following them for 9 yrs now! 😉👍💓..Check out their newest Album! It will blow your mind!🤯

Well Metallica, Muse, The Killers, The Foo Fighters, Def Leppard, and Disturbed have all recognized their talents. They are on Metallica’s Blacklist album, they’ve opened for Def Leppard and The Killers and are scheduled to open for the Foo Fighters soon. I could go on and on, from Spector bass officially sponsoring Ale, to them being the first Mexican band being signed by a major US label. The one critique I’d have and thing I’d reject is the idea that you need to have guitar solos all the time, that nonsense, there are so called good guitar players that are just showing off. I’d rather have a guitarist that does what’s needed for the song, a solo for the sake of a solo is of no interest to me.

I love this band! This is over 5 years ago. And they were impressive. But they're even more impressive and refined nowadays in 2023. Peace

Honest reaction, honest desire to go on an adventure! And what adventure! I have subscribed to your channel.

It doesn't matter which song is your first song, the drummer is immediately convincing. She always brings it. She reminds me of early Dave Grohl. She just puts her whole heart into it.

With no contest, Best thing that has happened to rock in decades: The Warning. Passion Talent Work Heart..you name it, they have it 🔥❤️🤘

At this age Alejandra was not terribly active. You need to check out their video, Muse, Hysteria, practice and see just how good Alejandra is on that bass. The Muse video was done when Alejandra was eight or nine.

I am still impressed... after 2 years......!!, saludos.

Love the warning Best rock band in years for me 🤟

Dany does a solo in the song 'Z' from their latest EP, MayDay. It's not that she doesn't do solos, just they aren't the focus of most of their songs. It seems that each of their songs showcases a different aspect of their individual skills. For example, 'Evolve' seems to feature Pau on the drums. 'Animosity' and 'Martirio' have great bass lines. Ale has developed a lot over the past couple of years.

Nice honest reaction. You will continue to be impressed and even more impressed as you see their origin (Enter Sandman 2014) through their current Mayday EP. Here is another young female trio (two sisters and their best friend) from Northern Ireland called Dea Matrona. They opened for Van Morrison last November and are opening for Status Quo in February. As you may have guessed they are Classic Rock (not Metal) and here are three links of short songs showing their range and skills. The drummer is no where near the skill level of Pau from The Warning as she just took up drums to fill out her sisters band not too long ago. The two older girls are super talented musicians and singers. I will start with some of their best covers before recommending their originals if you care to hear more. First, Simon and Garfunkel's "Homeward Bound" acoustic kzfaq.info/get/bejne/msWmhcp-q6-3Yo0.html. Second, here is Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac "Oh Well" with Orlaith on guitar and vocals kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aNKEfqp5ldO-nac.html and finally, here's Rory Gallagher's "Cradle Rock" with Mollie on guitar and vocals kzfaq.info/get/bejne/arBmrZSprL_IZJc.html. Note: If you react to these three, do the acoustic last so as not to lose audience before the rockers, just my thought.

THE WARNING IS ONE OF THE BEST ROCK GROUPS OF 2022, WITH VERY GOOD TOPICS MUSIC AND LYRICS LIKE SURVIVE, UGH, HUNTER, THE END, NARCISSIST ETC´ AND ITS NEW MATERIAL CHOKE, EVOLVE, MARTIRIO, ANIMOSITY, Z, ETC

Another thing to consider about these three young ladies is the fact that at the time this video was made they had released their first album of original music. Everything you heard here, they wrote. They have since released a second full album and an EP which is half of their third album.

These girls rock can't wait until they come to England

Welcome to the wonderful world of The Warning my friend! Cant wait to see your reactions to their new stuff as well!

Queen of the Murder Scene is up there with some of my favorite albums of all time. If you want a real feel for their sound, I would start there. Their concert at Lunario is just amazing. I would define it as Progressive Punk.

Welcome to the universe of The Warning ;)

Just the most phenomenal band out there

I'm so jealous of all the great music you get to enjoy moving foward. You may find that you underestimated the bass player. Checkout Dust to Dust live. Their new EP Mayday is filled with great tracks and I predict that you are going to be marching with The Warning Army soon. Great reaction.Thanks for covering The Warning.

the Mexican girl group called THE WARNING, for my taste is a rare mix of legendary rock groups like Suzi Quatro, Joan Jett and the black hearts and Heart. greetings from Mexico.

Awesome band of young women who rock🤘👊🤘🖤😎🖤💥

Me parece bien ver estas presentaciones de años atrás (esta fue hace 4 años), porque nos muestran la "filosofía" del grupo. Ojalá puedas ver Concert & storytelling o Quarantine official show. Seguramente ya te habrán recomendado que reacciones al tercer EP. Mirar atrás para saber de dónde vienen, mirar el presente para reconocer su crecimiento musical. The Warning: poderoso trío de rock. Saludos 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽

Great video, like your honest comment about them. I think you will get surprised when you hear how they sound right now.

Pau is a beast! Writes most of the songs too.

Yep I got surprised too. Look for their song CHOKE!

If you want a good sound, the ones you mentioned at the end are great, BUT you need to listen to Dust to Dust as well. You will really like Pau ( the drummer) then, and Ale's Bass line is amazing in that. Choke and Animosity really showcases Dany's ( the Guitarist and Singer) vocals and guitar playing now that they are older.
