Mike, great reaction. You really need to acquaint yourself with the entire Queen of the Murder Scene experience. Dust to Dust is the prologue that leads the listener down a dark, sinister story of unrequited love and the devolving of a young woman's mind...written by Dany, Pau and Ale when they were all still either teens (Ale even younger). The album is a masterpiece...and their performance at Lunario is experiential...not just a concert...it's an experience.
The mighty Pau! There are reasons beyond The Warning's awesome fan base, that she won the 2023 Modern Drummer's Up and Coming Drummer award! She is a powerhouse!
@@robertott1172 Well i hope it happens again because she is nominated for best Rock drummer of 2023 by Drumeo awards the winner will be announced on 25 January 2024 at the Drumeo RU-vid channel. So if you voted for her Thank you. I voted for her because i believe she deserves the honor. She is against several drummers in her category (Rock) and one of those drummers is the new drummer of the Foo Fighters a band that they have opened for before.
Ms Alejandra received main writing credits for this song. She brought it to her sisters, and they helped fill it out. It was the first song the band released from their concept album. My jaw hit the floor when I heard it the first time. Then many expletives flew out of my mouth. Its a monster of a tune!
I've been listening to music for over 50 years. I've never really paid much attention to drummers. No good reason, I just tend to focus on lead guitar. The exceptions were Buddy Rich, Neil Peart, and now our Paulina. She is amazing and that's a very large understatement.
This is one of the first 5 songs I heard and one that cemented their place in my top bands of all time for me. After 40 years of rock obsessions, that's not a statement I make lightly. Lyrically, explaining it could take a full page, but it opens their concept album Queen of the Murder Scene, and is told from the point of view of the protagonists ghost while at her funeral. She implores us to come in and hear her tale of madness, obsession, and murder. To see how things can go wrong. The spoken part in Spanish is a preacher telling us that salvation must be earned. It's the voice of their manager Rudy. Thanks again. I'm glad you're liking you trip through their world. It's incredibly rewarding.
"This is my favorite The Warning song, I'm confident of that..." Turns on a new TW song "THIS is my favorite TW song, For sure!". Rinse and repeat. This only confirms that it's the last TW song you listened to that's your favorite. Great reaction!
Not a bad performance in this show! And don’t worry about stopping, we’ve all heard these songs a million times, we’re here to hear what you think of them! Carry on!
Some reactors get it right away, others it takes a few songs. But eventually they all realize that Paulina is a force of nature talent in the music industry.
The usual saying is, your favorite The Warning song is the last one you listened to. If you thought this one was good, keep going through this concert, there's lots more.
"This is my favorite The Warning song, I'm confident of that..." In many of us this is a kind of loop which starts over again once we listen to the next The Warning's song🤣
They have Abelton Live running on a laptop next to Pau's Kit. She controls that with a foot pedal switch. Dany's effects board and Ale's effects board are routed through Pau's laptop computer as well. I believe there is also a feed from each to the front house sound board as well. I know from their equipment rundowns that they spend a lot of time programming settings for each of their songs, the more complicated of the tasks are Dany's, of course. I also think that at least some of the microphones on Pau's drums are processed through filters as well. Regarding Pau and fills, I've seen her do fills with one hand while doing something else with the other. For example, on their song MORE, she is striking the cowbell with her right hand while doing a fill with her left. They are well-rehearsed, of course, but with 10 years of performing experience they have confronted just about every situation imaginable and handle things rather smoothly so that most of the audience would never notice. Also, this is a song they play at every concert, so they could play it in their sleep at this point. I'm sure each of them makes minor adjustments along the way.
Dust to Dust is the song that drew me into this band a few years back. The entire Queen Of The Murder Scene album is a work of art. The amount of inspiration and perspiration that must have went into it boggles my mind.
This is the first song from the concept album Queen of the Murder Scene. Definitely need to go through the songs in order. They performed and recorded it back in 2018 at the Lunario.
Mike, spend as much time as you would like on this things that interest you. We all know the song. I am here to get your thoughts, reactions, impressions, etc. We don't have a lot of bass folks doing reactions, so for many of us on Team Ale, we really appreciate your thoughts. (BTW I am a bari sax and bass clarinet player who is just starting learning to play bass because of Ale). Welcome to the legion Warning fans whose favorite song is the last one we heard. But this one is up there for me for sure.
This song is the prologue to their 2nd album, Queen of the murder scene (Concept album). The album, divided into four chapters and a prologue, takes us on a journey of love, madness, murder and death until we reach the very graphic "The End".
Lyrically, this is a funeral. The Queen of the Murder Scene invites you in to hear her story. Next song is 'Crimson Queen', if you want to continue the story.
The way this sound closes out with Dany killing that run and Pau with that fill. Great way to end after the Ale intro. DPA's parents won the genetic lottery with their amazing children.
Dany plays guitar, piano, saxophone and is lead singer, front woman, written 2 of my favourite Warning songs and also with Ale contributes heavily to the music and lyrics.
Paulina Villareal is a freak of nature, a supreme talent. This is also possibly my favorite song from them. Be sure to check out "Survive" from this performance but also look up their performance of that track from "TEDx" from 2017, it's even more impressive considering their crazy young ages. Another great track is "Sinister Smiles", but they didn't perform it at this Teatro Metropolitan show, so you'll need to find another version.
You should pay close attention to the lyrics of the songs on this album, not only, for their literary characteristics, but also, because they were written by the 3 with the ages of 18, 16 and 13.
It's almost impossible to pick a favorite but this one is in the top runnings for me and one of the first recommendations I give for people new to The Warning. If you want some more constantly great rock The Pretty Reckless and Halestorm are always on point.
never apologize for stopping,, thats why we are here,, the fact that the three of them are so "relaxed" with the instruments is because the girls AND their instruments grew up together!! ",,so far." thats how it is,,
These three sisters wrote this song in their basement (along with the rest of the fabulous Queen of the Murder Scene album) when they were 18, 16, and 13 years old. Other songs from that 2018 album played at this concert were Dull Knives, Ugh, Hunter, and Queen of the Murder Scene.
Dust to Dust I describe as quintessential TW. Nothing stops Pau, break a stick, use your fingers, keep going, pick up a new stick, do a mind blowing fill whilst delivering an impressive vocal line. Lots of Pau cam footage around, shows how impressive a drummer she is, and subtlety she has spades. A truly impressive musician.
I am 47 , I 've been loving rock and metal music since I was 10, I have listened over the years to numerus bands and I am a musician myself, and these girls give me goosebumps. They surely are something special.
Mike, this is not a reaction, it is an Analysis, and that is what we like. We all know the Band is amazing...but you can tell us WHY they are so damn good. Earned a Sub.
Great reaction.. Everytime I hear a, The Warning song it's my new favorite.. until the next one... This in my favorite band for so many reasons.. Most of my life it was Floyd, Zeppelin, ECT.. now I really can't quit The Warning, I'm very addicted. I try to listen to other new bands. I end up comparing them to The Warning. It's weird, but true. I'm hypnotized by them or some shit... 🤟🎶☮️
Great reaction! This is the prologue of their second studio album 'Queen of the Murder Scene', which is a concept album. If you liked that song you'll definitely like the album. About Paulina being able to do other things while drumming, she starts and stops the click tracks if there are any, with her midi pedal, if they have a video wall she starts the vids as well and Daniela's pedalboard is slaved to the pedal as well so she can start and stop effects if needed. There's a video where she starts playing and after a few seconds seeing it won't work, removes her boots and socks without missing a beat... talk about multi tasking!
Your going to love everything from this 22 song concert done in Mexico City at 7,400 ft in elevation. Even the intermission track, for a wardrobe change is special. Because you said what a bunch of us have said, that the last song you heard, is your favorite TW song, you gained a new sub from me. You now officially get it, and I believe your here to stay. The entire Teatro (Tea-@-Trow) Metropolitan entire concert video in full, has each song tagged if you want to go in order as well as see what goes on between songs. It has an intro & an Outro, worth seeing. ⚡
Mike, I've been racking my brain to think of a The Warning song that you will hate, so that we can get it out of the way... but I am drawing a complete blank. It kinda sucks that they cannot write a bad song! Great reaction, by the way!!
I really liked your reaction Mike. As a musician, you can appreciate the little things that this band does, one can tell the work TW has put in. I'm along for the ride, subbed, cheers.
Great reaction. For their best "hard" stuff. Got to react to Dull Knives, Queen of the Murder Scene, and Ugh. Since those are all from the concept album though and you just watched the first song of it, Dust To Dust, might as well go down the line and do Crimson Queen next.
If you want to be more impressed, watch the first time they perform the song Narcisista live at Foro Didi. Pau is leading singing again, at one point she puts a stick down, and starts gesticulating with it whilst drumming and singing. Also near the end you might notice she picks up a new stick. And remember, it’s the first time live, and I think she’s 17 or 18.
I'm not a follower from the point of their viral 2014 Enter Sandman cover video, but came in during the 2020 lockdown. I was watching Classic Rock Reactions on RU-vid and The Warning's 2017 TedX performance showed up in my recommendations feed. Curiosity got hold and I have been a fan ever since. As an older rocker, having seen many bands back in my teens and early twenties (best rock and roll years of my life), the music from these young ladies just spoke to me. Then I took a deep dive into their YT channel and really admired their work ethic and personalities. That's when the proud dad/uncle, or whatever syndrome washed over me and am now so grateful that I have gotten to see them rise up so much in the short time that I've known about them.
This is one of my favorite songs as well. Dust to Dust was the second song I heard by The Warning, and the one that made me a fan. It was also the song that made me a fan boy of a band for the first time in my life.
I am one of the fans that you were discussing. I have been following The Warning since 2014 when their cover of "Enter Sandman" hit RU-vid. I finally got to see them live in Dallas, TX in May of 2022 and they just plainly just rocked the house down. I was standing about 15 feet in front of Dani as she played and talked to the crowd. Of course Ale was crazy on the bass, never stopped moving the entire program, Dani was belting out the songs and the guitar. and of course Pau was beating the holy shit out of the drums, just like they owed her money and she was there to collect. ITheir music is the first music in a very long time that I actually bought. The next time they play close to me I will be there.
The Teatro Metropolitan concert is one of the best I’ve heard. Wish I could have gone. It’s a mix of songs from all 3 albums. You also need to check out Queen of the Murder Scene album and concert. One of the best concept albums ever
Great reaction Mike! 🤘 This song is definitely in my top 5 TW songs together with Evolve. 🔥⚡️🤘 The other songs in my top 5 do change regularly depending on the song I listened last.. 😉 Greetings from The Netherlands
Such a great full band song every member stands out at points but Pau really impresses with her vocals while drumming so badass. It's so stunning especially her last fill to end the song after Dany's beautiful vocal. This song caught me off guard when I heard it the first time blew me away now it's more impressive as they get older and better. Nice reaction Mike I always enjoy your take and never noticed Pau using one hand so thanks for pointing that out another wow moment. 🤟🔥🔥⚡⚡⚡
In the version of this song from Lunario 2018 she plays that fill once normally and then one-handed as she adjusts her microphone and it sounds absolutely seamless
The next song you got to do is (UNMENDABLE) Live at (TEDX from the University of Nevada) the Girl crush it and (PAU) Steals the show with her powerful drumming! There's a rumor that says (PAU'S) drum set still stuck on the stage, she banged on the set so hard she literally nails it to the stage floor, the Roadies were not able to remove it, so it became a part of the stage FOREVER F O R E V O R f o r e v e r!!
Dust to dust is the prelude on the album queen of the murder scene. The words to this song actually coinside with the words on the last song on the album (the end). The girls say they really didn't plan it that way but it's just so brilliant how the this whole album comes together to tell such a chilling story. If you like the song dust to dust them you will love the whole queen of the murder scene album.
This is the first song on the Queen of the Murder Scene album. It is a concept album they wrote when they were 17,15,&12. Some really fun stuff on that album. Best listened to in order. Enjoy.
This is the first original song I heard from The Warning, and it made me an instant fan. I wouldn't say it's my favourite anymore, there are too many great songs to choose from, but it'll always be the song that hooked me.
Pau wasn’t voted up and coming drummer by modern drummer for no reason ..She’s a master at her craft at only 21 years old .The talent in this band is from another planet .They remind me of Rush in some ways …just so good .
Been listening to everything from them for the last few weeks and I do keep coming back to a few songs. This is definitely one of them. There is something completely transporting about it. You instantly trust the song to carry you, and it does, and it takes you to the places you want to go and shows you something there. Just about a perfectly arranged, composed, and executed song. But more importantly, it feels really good. I think the ending is underrated with the 6 note scale vocals. For me this catapults it into something much broader.
This song is the prologue to their concept album, and really a Master piece, You need to make a full reaction to this album, i would recomend you to do it to their Lunario concert in orden to know who is singing each song and also, you'll be able to watch their performance skills... of course it is only a recomendación but it is worth it.
In the future D2D will be one of TW's classics... that's how great it is, one of the masterpieces of the tremendous trio!! Thanks and greetings from México!! 🇲🇽 🤘😁✌️
This is my “you haven’t heard the Warning? Here watch this” video so I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. I actually can’t think of one you would be truly disappointed with. Some might not hit as hard as others but … The Warning don’t make junk. Or I should say they don’t release junk. Even when they have a song they hate (Ugh) they work it into a gem (And end up with 2 more great songs out of it)
The wolf in sheeps clothing. She hits hard and maintains vocal balance. Not many have that natural skill. Going out on a limb to say her style is that of small number of singer drummers from the 60's-70's.
Yes, every band has a bad song. With that being said, 3 full length albums, and EP and 2 stand alone singles in, The Warning doesn't have a single one.....Not one. Paulina unofficially has the nickname, The Pocket Sized Nuclear Reactor due to the fact she is only 5' tall but is SO dynamic on the drums. The Warning has grown up on Social Media, so they are like the worlds sisters and daughters to the Warning Army. Meeting them in person, they are the most down to earth, humble, nicest and sweetest people you would ever meet.
Hi, Mike! YES! I said that, too.....This is so far also my favorite song of them!!! My second one is "Automatic sun" and the third one "Evolve". But it`s so difficult too choose! The Warning and Maneskin are the best that could happen nowadays.
Super small world - I’m living in Japan, found The Warning through my dad who saw them play a festival in Czech Republic, then found your videos in my youtube recommendations, and just noticed you’re wearing a shirt from my hometown brewery!
that primal beat that Ale and Pau are pummeling us with is quite something... i can't wait to feel it live... i've not yet been able to make one of their concerts but i definitely plan to make at least one the next chance i get... Fun Fact: the concerts at the Metropolitian Theater (Teatro Metropolitian) or Lunario are in Mexico City (CDMX) which is 2240m (7350ft) above sea level... that's higher than Denver, CO! Monterrey, DPA/TW's home town, is only 540m (1770ft) above sea level... generally they're not in CDMX long enough to be fully acclimatized to the altitude before performing... Fun Fact: Pau's home/practice drum setup has 14" and 16" floor toms... in concert she uses 16" and 18" floor toms... Fun Fact: Pau sings while doing aerobic exercises and running to build her stamina and breath control so she can sing while beating her drums into submission... TWA ⚡🤘😸🤘⚡ TWA
*Basic Warning Info:* Ale plays a clean bass sound with her fingers. She only started playing with a bass pedal board with effects when she received her 5 string Spector. And that was in 2021. Dust to Dust was released in 2018. At the time. Ale was playing with a 4 string bass. She doesn't use a synth with her bass. It's just the way she plays it. The lights & stage has nothing to do how the band plays. They don't tour with lights or a stage. Whatever the venue provides is what the use. Since they play at stadiums (Muse), festivals or even bowling alleys (headliner) during the same tour. Mike. You said you thought Pau was showing off with her hand behind her back. *THAT'S FALSE SIMPLY WHERE SHE IS PLAYING.* Who would see Pau showing off?? Her riser is to high for the audience to see her hand behind her back. Plus it's dark up there. *REAL REASON:* Pau was adjusting her inna ears pack behind her back. This was the first song after a short intermission where the left the stage after *Disciple.* The song *Breathe* played over the loudspeakers. A bonus track on *Error* LP that Pau said she will not play live. Then *Dust to Dust.* The Warning has wtitten 47 original songs (a EP, 3 albums & 2 singles). In my opinion. *NOT ONE FILLER IN THAT BUNCH.* Mike. Like everybody else that's starting out listening to The Warning. That last song becomes your favorite. Until you hear the next song. *Been there with every new album.* Mike. *YOU'VE BEEN WARNED.*
Every song from Teatro Metropolitan is better than the studio version. Some bands try to recreate their studio sound when they're playing live, The Warning tries to create a studio sound that matches their live sound. You should do them all, even the ones you've done with the studio versions, like Martirio, Choke, Disciple and Error. For heavier sound, Queen of the Murder Scene is great, but, then again, every song from this concert is great because of their playing, their harmonies and their energy, not to mention that the sound and lighting techs were outstanding.
My friend. You ain't seen nothin yet. Just wait until you check out The Lunario show where they debut the greatest concept album of all time 'Queen of the Murder Scene' Yes I said it!!! They weren't as fine tuned and their voices weren't as mature as this. The production was nowhere near this. But the energy and watching Dany transform in front of you into an obsessive killer right in front of your eyes, needs to be experienced. I highly recommend you make some time in your calendar to do a LIVE stream (as it's a rite of passage for reactors). I can guarantee that The Army will show up to support you. Just make sure you give people a head's up, as it can be an intimate 10 person live stream to an event filled with almost 100 (or more) die hard Army fans.
Yes I'm ALWAYS willing to watch any of their concert with reactors and Lunario is a milestone in their career for many reasons. Milestones: Liceo, Dakota, Lunario, Metropolitan, each representing the first time they played most or all the songs in each album they have published.
Mike, I too recently discovered The Warning, it amazes me that these sisters are so polished, energetic and quite talented in every facet of music. Definitely checkout the song Survive it show cases each member amazing abilities! Peace
I agree with @mt4design2. This being the prologue song to in my opinion one of the best concept albums of my lifetime you should definitely check those songs out in order from Queen of The Murder Scene. I would also pull up the story board for each song prior to listening so it helps to follow along on the dark and murderous story that somehow three teenagers at the time so expertly wrote. The Warning writes really smart songs. It's often said when people listen to The Warning, the last song they listened to becomes their favorite song by them.
As many times as I've watched these live videos, this is the first time that I've watched them in order, and it just clicked that on Dust to Dust they wear white on a brightly lit stage. The rest of the concert is darker and they are wearing black, fitting the theme. Can't believe it took me this long to notice.
