The Warning: A Journey Through Their Discography

Hello, Japanese Female Rock readers! If you love powerful riffs, raw energy, and pure rock talent, then get ready—we’re diving deep into the discography of The Warning! This Mexican trio of sisters has been taking the world by storm, delivering electrifying performances and lyrics that resonate across generations. Today, we’ll explore the albums that transformed Daniela, Paulina, and Alejandra Villarreal into modern rock icons.
The Beginning: Escape the Mind (2015)

It all started in Monterrey, Mexico, in 2013, when three young sisters picked up their instruments and decided to make history. Daniela on guitar and vocals, Paulina on drums, and Alejandra on bass formed The Warning. Just two years later, in 2015, they released their debut EP, Escape the Mind. This independent release, featuring six original tracks like Take Me Down and Free Falling, showcased a raw but incredibly promising sound. At the time, they were between 10 and 15 years old, yet their musical maturity was undeniable. The EP not only opened doors but also gained international attention, leading them to launch a GoFundMe campaign to study at the Berklee College of Music—a humble yet powerful beginning.
Finding Their Sound: XXI Century Blood (2017)

In 2017, The Warning made their first full-length debut with XXI Century Blood. Featuring 13 tracks, this album reflects the glories, struggles, and contradictions of the modern era. Songs like the title track XXI Century Blood and Survive demonstrate the band refining their style—a fusion of hard rock and metal influences packed with energy and meaningful lyrics. Independently recorded, this album solidified their name in the Mexican rock scene, even earning them opportunities to open for bands like Def Leppard.
A Dark Concept: Queen of the Murder Scene (2018)

Just one year later, in 2018, The Warning raised the stakes with a concept album, Queen of the Murder Scene. This record tells the tragic tale of a queen obsessed with power and love, leading to her downfall. Tracks like Choke and Dust to Dust showcase their musical evolution, with more complex arrangements, theatrical vocals from Daniela, and an impeccable chemistry between Alejandra’s pulsing bass and Paulina’s intense drumming. This album not only highlighted their ability to tell deep, emotional stories, but it also brought them to even bigger stages, opening for legendary bands like The Killers and Muse.
A New Chapter: Error (2022)

By 2022, The Warning entered a new era with Error, their third album, and their first under Lava Records. With 14 tracks, including the electrifying Money and their first Spanish-language track, the visceral Martirio, this album explored technology, identity, and the struggles of the digital age. Produced by David Bendeth, Error elevated their sound, blending heavy rock with a more mainstream appeal. This breakthrough album earned them a spot at the MTV Video Music Awards and secured them tours with rock legends like Guns N’ Roses. It’s the sound of a band that has found its voice—but still pushes boundaries.
Reaching Their Peak: Keep Me Fed (2024)

Finally, in 2024, The Warning returned with their fourth album, Keep Me Fed, released on June 28. With 12 tracks, including S!CK, Six Feet Deep, and Automatic Sun, this album showcases the trio at their absolute creative peak. It strikes the perfect balance of power, melody, and emotion, with lyrics that speak of struggle, resilience, and self-discovery. Their world tour following the release took them to new audiences worldwide, including historic performances in Europe and their highly anticipated debut in Brazil in 2025. But Keep Me Fed is more than just an album—it’s a statement: The Warning is here to stay.

The Warning in Brazil: The Big Interview with Rolling Stone Brazil!

One of the five names announced to open for The Offspring’s tour in Brazil took some fans by surprise. Among several bands somehow linked to punk, there’s The Warning, a hard rock trio formed by Mexican sisters Daniela (vocals and guitar), Paulina (drums), and Alejandra Villarreal Vélez (bass). In an interview with Rolling Stone Brasil , they admitted they were initially surprised when they found out they’d be playing alongside Sublime, Rise Against, The Damned, and Amyl & The Sniffers, in addition to the tour’s headliners. But who cares? Their excitement about performing in South America’s largest country for the first time quickly overshadowed any concerns. Paulina, the most articulate speaker of the group—and often cited as the main songwriter—reflected: “When we were added to the tour lineup, I looked at the other bands and thought, ‘Oh, we’re kind of the odd ones out here.’ But the opportunity came after we played a show with The Offspring in the Un...

"I am proud that in Japan we have so many female-fronted bands": Midori Tatematsu, Lovebites Interview – February 24, 2025 For the first time in their career, the Japanese band Lovebites is coming to Latin America, performing at the first edition of the Titans of Metal festival on March 1 at Parque Bicentenario in Mexico City. We had the chance to talk with guitarist Midori Tatematsu about her first impressions of coming to Mexico and the growing, highly admired Japanese metal scene. How do you feel about coming to Mexico for the first time and sharing the stage with major bands like W.A.S.P. and Six Feet Under at the first Titans of Metal Fest? This will be our first live performance in Latin America, so we are especially excited about it. As a band, it’s a great honor for us to share the stage with these metal legends, and personally, I really want to see them perform because I’ve never had the chance to attend one of their concerts. The worl...
