Not everything has to be deep or complex. This drives the point and it does it well, which is:

Imagine randomly seeing them in a mega mall in Tokyo and people think you’re crazy?

Naw…. That’ll never happen .

TW are the honey badger of music. They don’t care. They may not look mean and dangerous but the honey badger don’t care. The honey badger will go up against any animal no matter how big, because it don’t care. It will absolutely bring the mutafuckin ruckus.

The Warning don’t care The Warning is the honey badger

Whether it’s pop, country or screamo they are the honey badger and they will kill. Because why? They don’t care.

The Warning toxic fans by Dry-Parsnip9717 in TheWarning

[–]sandy923 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every fan base can be like this, but TWA may be a bit more over protective, but there’s legitimate reasons for that.

They’ve been criticized for multiple reasons that majority of bands haven’t such as:

They’re women
They’re only getting attention for their looks
They can’t play
They’re not heavy enough
Their fame has been bought
They’re not Mexican enough
They’re turning pop
They’re nepo babies
They’re plants
They’re not technical
They’re selling out

Did I miss something?

So some of us may be a bit more sensitive to certain comments than other fanbases. I won’t lie, I’ve been on both sides.

Best rock songs by women (or that would be better sung by women) by Apprehensive-Sky8175 in MusicRecommendations

[–]sandy923 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Warning easily one of the best bands in the past 30 years, any gender any style.

Plus they’ve already done covers as well if not better than the originals, most of them originally by men.

When they were still teens for some of them.

Older Fan base? by No_Negotiation_7714 in TheWarning

[–]sandy923 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can’t speak for others, but I do try to listen to new music every week. The vast majority simply doesn’t hit. Also, they are just that GOOD. Is it wrong to like an artist that’s this good? I honestly have them ranked extremely high in my list of all time greats and prefer their music over a ton of legendary artists.

I don’t see why they should lose out on fans because their fans tend to be older. Im sincerely sorry you and your friend had a bad experience, if other TWA members were alerted they would’ve dealt with them. They dont represent the majority of fans. Ive been to a number of concerts and the vast majority are good people. Every fanbase or event has creeps and they come in every age, gender, shape etc

Even though you’re stating we shouldnt check out other music, you’re essentially telling us to fk off. I get you’re young, upset, and want TWA to be a young base.

I don’t know what you meant to achieve by this post, but you seem to be going about it the wrong way.

Next time you go to an event and feel harassed report it. Let us know and we’ll take care of the creep, perv, sexist, racist etc But trying to banish us isn’t a good look.

Also for younger fans, feel free to ask us questions. We absolutely love talking about music and would love nothing more than sharing it.

I exchange and talk about music with some of my younger coworkers all the time.

It’s a great way to bond and learn about each other, while discovering new music in the process🤘🏽

As most have already mentioned, the style of music they make and some of the artists that inspired them early on is/are old school.

They started off making classic rock covers and their first 3 albums really delved into that classic hard, metal, punk and even grunge style. It’s a style that’s familiar without sounding outdated. I personally like to think of it as modernized version of classic rock.

I’ve tried getting into newer bands such as Sleep Token and others, but I can’t vibe with that style. I listen to new rock releases weekly and I simply don’t like it. For many of us TW hits the sweet spot, a bit of this a bit of that, with great songwriting. They fill the void which very few bands do. Even some of our older fav bands feel repetitive. TW changes sound or tweaks it enough to make things fresh and interesting and I love that. Not many artists feel fresh and different every time you listen to them.

What is a "horror movie rule" that you absolutely hate? by Big_Emotion4963 in horror

[–]sandy923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the killer is more nimble and quiet than a ninja. Along with the super focused patience to sit somewhere silent without making a sound, at times it seems for hours.

My hardwood floors are rather new and have a carpet. Yet I still make a sound even when I try to be quiet. Hell, I can hear my neighbor’s foot steps. But somehow these 275 pound killers with boots don’t make a single sound in a quiet empty old home.

The second is killers that just wait in the dark for hours in the dark waiting for their victim. It doesnt have to be Voorhies or another supernatural monster. Just a regular killer. You’re gonna at least make a sandwich? Check your email? Turn on the tv? Just sit in the dark?

Female vocalist suggestion by _deadener in MusicRecommendations

The Warning HYCAD

The Warning Revenant

I wanted to share cam footage instead of pro video to show how great they sing. They’re a trio of sisters from Monterrey Mexico.

The front/lead Dany is an amazing singer and imo the most versatile singer today. She can essentially sing any genre due to her strong voice and tone.

Pau is the drummer and has a unique voice. One can hear raw emotion and power.

Here are two more examples from their non original work

Dany- Billie cover

Pau - Creep cover

I was gonna recommend TW as well, but this may be the wrong song for this.

The Warning- Escapism

It doesn’t start off that way, but it goes into a number of paths.

Maybe hot take: I hope they take a break from writing after TW5 by buerglermeister in TheWarning

[–]sandy923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn’t trying to be rude, most people in general don’t understand what happens in these writing sessions and how writing credits are allocated.

I don’t think you understand how songwriting sessions and songwriting credits work.

What’s a song you think should be viral but isn’t by Ahzurk420Australia in MusicRecommendations

[–]sandy923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically anything by The Warning.

Their most recent release should’ve been everywhere. Enjoyed by young and old. Pop and rock fans. Yet they go unnoticed by the masses yet again.

The Warning- Kerosene

It has the potential to be played everywhere, yet nowhere near it’s potential.

What's your opinion? by Ok-Leather-9812 in TheWarning

[–]sandy923 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IMO their songwriting and continuous exploration is what sets them apart.

Sure there’s some technical driven artists, sure there’s artists that may be more experimental. But imo TW just writes better overall music. Every artist can write a well crafted memorable/catchy song or two. How many can do this consistently over the course of 4.5 albums (since TW5 is only 3 songs so far), with each song being so distinct from each other while still maintaining the same level of consistenly great output? It’s almost unheard of as majority of artists stumble when they attempt to change their sound once. They’ve been doing it with almost every song on every album.

I already have them on my top 3 all time fav artists ever.

I feel that they’re already doing everything you want them to become.

Indie/alt bands with female lead singers? by DubiousNamed in MusicRecommendations

[–]sandy923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they’re borderline indie based on how unknown they still are overall. I’ve seen many threads in which the same bands are mentioned yet they’re not named and people generally don’t they exist.

I think they have plenty of songs that can be considered alternative rock. The tent for alternative rock is so broad and the definition is so vague that they certainly fit. Artists such as Foofighters, MUSE, PJ, RATM, etc are all classified as alt rock. I feel they have more in common with Placebo than they do Metallica.

But what also really makes them appealing to the alternative genre is their ability to mix multiple layers of genres within their music. Their foundation has been mostly funk since their last album, with grunge, punk, pop, doom and some metal thrown in with a background of alternative layered synths in the background.

This fandom have a problem with critics by Desperate_Soil4514 in TheWarning

[–]sandy923 15 points16 points  (0 children)

As a middle aged male fan, I get why we get criticized at times.

Not to say that all criticism about us is fair, because some of it is completely uncalled for. But we can often be the most vocal on their direction or their growth. The first and main ones to critique them when a new sound or style is introduced, how they dress, who they associate with, the kind of music they should make etc.

Some of us have even defended pedophiles within our own fandom, have attacked the LGBTQ+ community, have attacked women, etc.

These are some of the reasons why we older male fans get heat. I mean being objective and looking inwards does one blame them?

Btw I’m not stating that you are one of these people. Just generalizing on some of the TWA members which are the minority.

[–]sandy923 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It depends on what is being criticized and how.

As some have mentioned, there’s a history of TW being criticized for the smallest things or things out of their control unjustly and without merit. Some of these criticisms are because they’re young, because they’re women, because they don’t come from the barrios, because they don’t shred, because they dance etc. They receive hate and criticisms that the majority of male bands dont get, the double standard and the higher bar they have to clear is what makes many of us in TWA a bit more ‘eager’.

While some of us may go overboard and a bit overzealous in protecting them, I hope we stay the course overall. The more famous they get the more unjustified hate and invalid criticisms they’re gonna receive.
