Almost fell out of my CHAIR! Bass Teacher REACTS to The Warning - “EVOLVE" | 2023 VMAs

JOIN ME ON PATREON: / lowenduniversity
---------------------------------------------------
➡️ After hearing these sisters for the first time a few months ago with "Dust To Dust", I really wanted to see @TheWarning kick into a higher gear that I KNEW they were capable of. You guys understood the assignment and recommended that I check out "EVOLVE", live from the 2023 VMAs. I did not expect what I saw, and I'm so glad to see them unleash some serious power! In this video I hear "Evolve" for the very first time, which is from their latest album "Error". I discuss their stage presence, some tips on bettering your OWN stage presence, Ale's bass playing, and a breakdown of the song's chord progressions. I also offer some insight on the music theory behind their effective transitions by using chromaticism and diminished arpeggios. I'VE BEEN WARNED!

As her sisters have said, it is sometimes a bit intimidating to play with Ale, because she is demanding, precise and very rarely makes mistakes. By the way, Ale also gets to sing as the lead vocal, but she doesn't like to do it. She only does it when Dany needs to give her voice a rest. That's why at TWA we say that watching Ale sing is like seeing a unicorn, something unique that rarely happens.

[@roywall8169]

Here is the thing. There isn’t another example of a Warning song just like that, because they don’t write the same song over and over. Every album, every song has its own life and feeling. You are just as likely to find a serious bit of storytelling, or a ballad, as you are to follow up with a high tempo rocker. They can Warn you about the perils of tech addiction, or bemoan the breakdown of the family unit with a song about domestic violence. These sisters are every bit as into the lyrics of their songs, as they are the composition. My best advice would be to dig in, and enjoy the truly diverse and powerful catalogue. 🤘🏻🤟🏻

[@Parker--]

I love the Warning, but there are very similar songs to Evolve. The entire Mayday EP has a very similar sound across all of it, which is fine, because it makes up a good chunk of their absolute best work, but they do have similar songs. Like, I'm sure there are people that love Evolve but don't like More or 21CB and vice versa, but there's no way in hell you can love Evolve and not also love Z, Disciple, Animosity, Choke or Martirio (unless you truly hate Spanish lyrics).

@@eduardoescobar1906 It's funny you say More is pop-rock, because to me More is 100% a nu-metal Rob Zombie song, specifically Living Dead Girl. To be fair though, nu-metal is a nebulous genre and Rob Zombie is best described as "Dance music for the family from The Hills Have Eyes." 😋 I love More, it's not my favorite, but I'm glad that was their other VMA song because it shows just how hard that song goes live. The VMA live track really makes the studio track obsolete. Seriously though, if you're not entirely familiar with LDG, listen to them back to back.

Ale wrote the bass line for the other song you reacted to (Dust to Dust) when she was 12. She's an amazing bassist with great stage presence!

Power Ballads, Acoustic Ballads, Prog Rock, Hard Rock, Funk, Punk Rock, and a touch of Metal. These young women are fearless and make no apologies for having a wide aperture for music.

Dany is the primary lead singer (75-80%); Pau is the secondary lead. Ale doesn't enjoy singing lead, although she will do so if needed because e. g. Dany is sick. However, she has an impressive counter-melodic line in one of their not yet released songs, Hell You Call A Dream (or "HYCAD" as we typically call it). You don't know it yet, but you want to see them live even more than you think you do. When you do, you'll see what we all mean by that.

Dany is the lead for majority of songs and has the strongest voice of them, Pau does a few songs as lead and they swap back and forth across some songs, she often splits between a more nasally voice and a raspier voice, and Ale often does backing harmonies and has a softer, more soothing sound to her voice. More from the VMAs is a great example of what I mean.

[@abugewww8013]

Excellent description. I go back and forth over whether Dany or Pau has the strongest voice. Both can really belt when they want to. When Pau sang Money live at that radio station, I really couldn't say Dany belts with more power on it than Pau on the same song. Dany, however, has the wider range and ability to sustain notes. Both are phenomenal singers no matter how you look at it. :) 🙂

[@keithwillenson8314]

As others have said, The Warning is not a one-trick band. All can sing lead, although Ale (Ah-leh) prefers to not be in the spotlight, so she only sings lead when Dany's voice is tired. They draw from a wide variety of inspirations and no two songs sound the same. Pau (POW! like the sounds she makes) sings lead about 20% of the time (10 songs of their 50ish current catalog.) They have a signature sound, which makes people wonder why a three piece band sounds like four or more and the answer is their arrangements where no instrument is just playing along. Normally they play to a click-track, but, at the MTV show, there were technical difficulties and no click-track. They have written all their music so if all the backing technology fails, they can still perform the full song. They can all do the grit in their voice, but can also do beautifully lyrical voices. In their 2021 Enter Sandman OMV, Dany sings with Alessia Cara and matches her pop sound in the beginning. In that same OMV, Pau and Ale sing some haunting beautiful harmonies. Or you could listen to Disciple or Revenant from the Teatro Metropolitan concert. I think they are best when all three sing together. Also, fans of The Warning are called The Warning Army (TWA) and are already here. You have been Warned!

[@WaldoKitty]

this was such a huge and powerful exhibition they gave with the short time they were given... they performed two songs, *More* (done first) and this one, *Evolve* which is certainly a fan favorite... Pau, the drummer, came up with *Evolve* after watching a documentary about evolution and gene manipulation... this isn't the first time she has drawn inspiration from a TV show or movie, either... i understand that MTV is still looking for their roof LOL watch Pau closely... you can see her preparing herself, taking a deep breath, shaking her head, and firing her "Scream of Evolution" toward the heavens releasing all of her frustrations and pain so she can *Evolve* and grow past them 😜... she has described it in similar fashion and brings it for real each and every time they present this hard rocking power ballad in concert or live sessions... Pau has also stated that playing here on this stage was a very surreal moment... the stage was very much like the stage in the game Rock Band... i can easily see that they might have felt as if they had been transported into the game... i'm sure they imagined similar when they were playing the game as children and just beginning to find their path in life... Fun Fact: Pau has three screams/yells that she does... the first, most well known, one in *Evolve* , one in *Z* , and the other in *Hunter* ... TWA ⚡🤘😸🤘⚡ TWA

Error was definitely the breakout album of this band even though their older stuff is just as good! They went through the David Bendeth boot camp on this album. Watched an interview with this band and they said that after they got back home from making this album they had to relearn to play not as individuals but as a band and that is what they did during the Pandemic. They became super tight as a group and they now play off of each each other! Super tight, super fun and endless energy this is what you get from this group of young ladies.

Comfortable on stage? They just celebrated their 10 year anniversary as a band and the youngest Ale' just turned 19!. They toured Europe and headlined many concerts as well as opened for so many huge bands like Foo Fighters, Lzzy Hale, GnR, three Days Grace and their all-time idols Muse- who was so taken with The Warning that they asked the ladies to go tour Europe with them for the UK run! Matt Bellamy was also so taken with Dany (guitarist) that he gifted her a customer Manson guitar. Lzzy Hale was also so taken with the band that she also gifted Dany a customer Gibson Explorer on-stage mid-concert. Then Dany had to play it for the next song cold straight out of the box (so to speak)! That is the power of The Warning!

@@LowEndUniversity it's the opening track. A collab with Alessia Cara who I don't know but was apparently put in as a bit more of a commercially well known name. They made a video for it which obviously is on their KZbin channel.

[@Emanon905]

Alessia Cara wasn't "put in". She was the original artist who was invited by Metallica to contribute a song for the album. Alessia is a Grammy winning pop/R&B singer. She wasn't sure how to approach the project, so she asked her team for suggestions. Someone in her management team who also has dealings with The Warning, suggested they do a collaboration. Metallica gave their approval and The Warning re-imagined Enter Sandman into a new version. The studio version and OMV feature Alessia Cara fairly prominently. The live version that The Warning still perform at all of their shows is adapted yet again, basically making it their version, with Alessia only being heard on backing track vocals. You can find YT videos of both artists doing promos for The Blacklist album or being interviewed about having a part in the album.

[@zivroter5074]

If you know how to pronounce Alejandra, you know how to pronounce her nickname Ale; just say it exactly the same way, but without "jandra". Daniela aka Dany, the guitarist, is the principal lead vocalist but on some songs, Paulina aka Pau takes lead fully, or they both share lead. Ale expressed not wanting so much to take the lead, so, except on rare occasions, she sticks which backing vocals, often the low voice. Also, mind that the riff you liked is in 7/8. To my knowledge, that's the only song where they used that metric. Finally, Evolve is not really "the band, now". It was recorded in 2021. The Warning is currently in the process of writing and recording their 4th album, knowing that each of the 3 other albums sound differently one from the other, showing the evolution of the band as they mature.

the advice about stage presence you start giving at 6:55 is genuinely so huge. I just recently joined a band and we're hoping to start gigging soon, and it will be my first time playing in public like that, and I'm definitely going to try to keep "you gotta be a satirical version of yourself" and "if it feels a little silly, it's just right" in mind when I'm up on stage

[@LowEndUniversity]

I’m so glad that part resonated with you. It’s so true. It’s acting, and it’s entertainment. Big body movements, focus on making sure the headstock moves up and down a lot. Look around, make grotesque faces. It feels silly at first until people tell you that you look amazing and they loved the show. You definitely can overdo it, and it may take a dozen gigs to find the right balance. If you can get a video recording of your performance, that’s a priceless tool. Athletes watch film of themselves all the time for similar reasons. Good luck with the gig!!! You got this.🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@MrHws5mp]

Here's another tip: something that a nervous first-time-performer friend of mine found out by watching somebody much more experienced. If you make a mistake, don't try to hide it, or apologise or get embarrassed: own it, laugh about it WITH the audience and you will totally keep them on your side. If you've got a mic and an opportunity, make a comment about "live music, right?" and roll your eyes or finger-gun your head. Let yourself off the hook: the audience do NOT expect you to be perfect and they WILL forgive a mistake, IF you deal with it with a humourous and self-deprecating attitude.

I think that specific “Disciple” performance is what I’ve seen requested the most so far, and likely what I’ll do next. Thank you! I appreciate the nice words and am bummed I missed the harmonics (because I’m a SUCKER for bass harmonics). Can always be challenging to add commentary and not miss small details occasionally. I will go back and check it out!!! See you around 🙏🏼

[@mt4design2]

@@LowEndUniversity The harmonics are more prominent in the studio mix. There is so much to take in from this live performance it’s completely understandable! There is a great version they did with another KZbinr when they were on vacation in Spain. It was not too long after Evolve was released and they borrowed his instruments and he played second guitar with them in his studio. I don’t believe they had met him previously. Look for The Warning feat. Shauntrack.

[@MarkBtvd]

@@LowEndUniversity Wouldn’t mind if you stopped more often to check out those things you might miss otherwise. That’s what we’re here for so we can go back and listen with more appreciation to the original.

[@KevNpton]

If you want to see more to and fro between Dani and Pau then the song is Disciple, but if you want the gauntlet thrown down even harder, then Queen of the Murder Scene, both were performed at Teatro Metropolitan and recorded really well.

[@Astro-Markus]

Queen of the Murder Scene is clearly a banger! Many surprising transitions and HEAVY!

[@rjs617]

Love Queen of The Murder Scene! It is a total banger, and it blows my mind that they wrote and recorded it when they were still girls. I saw an interview where Dany said it’s strange listening to their previous albums with their “little baby voices”. LOL The songs are still awesome, and they sound even better now with grown-up voices.

[@neilscottfaulkner]

Whoa. That’s the first experience with this band. I am beyond impressed!

[@carlossaraiva8213]

The other song from this show was "More". While its a bit more pop it still retains a lot of metal but it does showcase more the sisters' vocal range of each, especially Ale who has a moment to shine as an almost lead singer.

[@markjames8664]

More also shows the evolution of Ale ‘s bass playing. She was still 15 when she recorded the songs on Error, now at 18 she’s upped it a level. There are two songs, Sick and Hell You Call a Dream, that they’ve played live but the official versions are not out yet, and both show more of Ale’s current level.

[@matt8097]

Your next song should be disciple from the Teatro metropolitan concert. Ale. Pronounced Ah lay has some great bass lines in that too.

[@LowEndUniversity]

I think it will be! Overwhelming majority are saying that here. I love it when everyone helps me out! ☺️🙏🏼

[@reactionsaccount3955]

I don't if you mentioned it and I missed it, but the post chorus riff is in 7/8 time signature. A KZbin channel named Digital Tour Bus just released a video with Alejandra doing a rig rundown, so would be interested to see you reacting to it and commenting on her setup.

[@LowEndUniversity]

I did miss that, as I got occupied trying to get the notes down 😅 - that could be a super fun video! Nice idea!

[@Narsil31]

The scream is just awesome. Pau's ability to play the drums and sing is incredible because is really very rare for drummers to sing at all and she does it flawlessly. The Warning is the best rock band to emerge from this century and their only gonna get better.

[@Anony_MouseY]

Pau’s scream of destruction !!!!! ⚡️

[@WaldoKitty]

Scream of Evolution 😜 she is releasing all of her frustrations and pains so she can evolve beyond them... TWA ⚡🤘😸🤘⚡ TWA

[@galdarion832]

I love them because they are bringing rock to the newer generations. Rock has been suffering for a good while and having some fresh young very talented ladies like this is just what the music world needs

[@RandyTWA]

I suggest Disciple @ Teatro Metropolitan. Ale (ah-lay) starts with just bass and then BOOM!

[@allendesalme197]

They fronted for Halestorm in 2022 for a US tour and for Muse last summer for a European tour. Girls are for real! Lzzy Hale gave Dany a guitar at the end of the tour.

[@Ahluk1]

If you want more of a taste of their metal side with great stage presence I HIGHLY recommend Queen of the Murder Scene from the Teatro concert. It will not disappoint.

[@DonAshcraft]

Oh yeah and you're right, they are amazing live. That's their whole gig. They know where it's important. And that's the play live. The cool thing is the last time I saw them they had such a wide diverse fan base. There were multiple families there with three generations or more rocking out hard to the warning. "You have been warned"

[@pablorages]

Well who wouldn't enjoy The Warning's bass ... Alejandra is friggin GORGEOUS !

[@ZippyThePinhead]

I just discovered them in the last couple months, and was BLOWN AWAY. Mind you I heard their newer stuff before hearing their older material. I'm with you though, the growth that has taken place over the last 10 years is fantastic, and yes I think they are bound for being SUPER famous. The smile on your face when Pau let out that gutteral scream had the same effect on me. The first song I heard by them, and recommend is "More", they also played it on the VMA's too.

[@chriso6719]

Ale is 2 syllables, just take the pronunciation of Alejandra and shorten it. Dany (guitar) sings lead on most songs, Pau sings lead on some. Ale will sing lead if they need her too, but no songs designated for that, and no pro shot video of that either. On "Disciple" you get Dany and Pau on co-lead, check out the live version at Teatro 2022. Spoiler: Disciple starts with a bass intro.😁 This crowd still doesn't know what hit them, most here didn't know who they were, just a few TW fans and they were brought to the front of the crowd. They played the extended play stage , prerecorded on Friday. Only a couple less than a minute clips were aired on the Tuesday awards broadcast. The only artist on this stage to do their songs in 1 take, and the only artist not nominated for an award. They gave up 1 of 2 dates opening for G"N"R for this. 2 songs played here, the other is a newer song called "More", I think it will be on the upcoming 4th album.

[@hakanklingstedt365]

I've been a hguge fan of TW since 2017 when I first saw them perform at the MOA festival in their home town Monterrey, Mexico ! Just want to say that they look very relaxed on stage because they've had MASSIVE experience performing, inspite of their young ages ! When I visited MTY in October 2017, they did three arena shows in five days ! They opened for Def Leppard twice (in CDMX and Guadalajara) then opened the MOA festival in MTY, this at ages 12, 14 and 17 !! They have done more live shows now than most bands have in their mid twenties ! Talking about Ale, the youngest of them, she played in front of tens of thousands (when opening for huge bands like DL and The Killers) when she was 12 years old !! This band has done the job every big band has to do, perform, perform, perform and perform ! That's how you develop stage presence ! There are no cutting corners when it comes to being great, and these ladies has the passion and work ethic to put in the work needed ! They are fantastic, that's why I've seen them live 6 times now, even though I live in Sweden ! They are doing a European Tour in April and I'm going to the UK to see them 6 times in 7 days ! They are destined to be stars ! The world is about to be WARNED !!

[@SO.CAL-D.Edwards]

Alejandra..Ale(ah-lay) Ale isn't that beer? So welcome back.. This band is a breath of fresh air.. So good, very special.. English is their second language.. Spanish #1 I recommend you watch the whole show from Teatro Metropolitan cdmx 2022.. Animosity, Disciple, Disciple will get your attention I think .. enjoy.. oh great reaction.. 🤟🎶☮️

[@NealB123]

They played their first public performance as a band 2 months after 7 year old Ale began taking bass lessons. It was a cover of God Gave Rock and Roll to You they performed at their school in 2012. Ale took to bass like a duck to water.

[@davekimball3610]

Paulina.....'nuff said.

[@ESCGelfling]

Daniella (Dany]), 23, lead and backing vocals, guitar. Paulina (Pau [Pronounced Pow]), 21, Backing and lead vocals, drums. Alejandra(Ale [Pronounced al-LAY]), 19, bass and backing vocals. And they all play classical piano, too.

[@astrogatorjones]

I was watching a backstage of that performance. When they finished the director instead of "cut" "we're out". said... "holy shit." And it went out to everyone. Which was exactly what I said when I saw this video.

[@LowEndUniversity]

HAHAHA! Incredible 🤩

[@kennypoot9662]

Where did you find that backstage? I’ve been looking for that

[@SilvanaOriani]

​@@kennypoot9662vma aftermovie in the warning yt channel

[@Parker--]

You should do "More" from this same "show." It's their latest single. They only did two songs, but both are excellent.

[@ToroLoco_]

That performace was superb.

[@joelpinckney9782]

Live for me seven times. Five in 2023. Irving Plaza was my favorite. Sold out with 1,101 tickets.

[@Parker--]

The most similar songs of theirs to Evolve you can see from their video "The Warning - Full Concert Live at "Teatro Metropólitan" (CDMX)" specifically Disciple, Animosity, or Z. Also from that show Choke (arguably their best song), Martirio and Amour are excellent rock songs. When I'm Alone, one of my top favorites, is their best rock ballad and really shines here live.

[@fabioriato]

I'm slowly getting into these girls, but something is already clear to me: the have that _IT_ factor so many bands wish for. They feel like a breath of fresh air within the rock genre, and they're still so young. Seems like the sky's the limit for them. While they're all talented, I can't help but feel impressed with Paulina on drums, that girl's a freaking beast! And that's coming from a bass player who usually pays less attention to drums compared to everything else.

[@TUBBYMAXX]

Welcome to The Warning !!! If They are Anywhere near You..... GET A TICKET !!!!! Their shows of playing "smaller venues " may be "of the past".... Their Euope tour 2024 ..They had to re-schedule Many dates to larger venues... due to Overwhelming Demand for tickets.... Hope You get to see Them Live !!!!!

[@gregjetnikoff7124]

Check out Dani's face after the last note. You haven't scratched the surface. Check out the concept album "Queen of the Murder Scene" ( NOTE: LIVE!!!) that they wrote in their early/mid teens...

[@grandpascuba]

They just had their 10 year anniversary concert in 2023. Dany is 24, so she was 13 or 14 when they started. That also means the bass player, Ale, was about 9 or 10. Ale started playing bass at 7. I believe their current ages are Dany 24, Pau 22 and Ale 19. By the way, to reply to your question, Ale, I believe, is pronounced like “alley”.

[@oxigenarian9763]

"Evolve" is the one that got me hooked on this very talented band. Paulina's scream takes the number to an entirely higher level...

[@jeffedwards9180]

We're hoping to see a Warning / Band Maid collab this year. They are big fans of each other, and the Maids announced they were doing some collabs with over-sea acts. They've already announced that BM will be special guests for Incubus in Tokyo. This was a killer song! 🤘

[@gregharbin3531]

I just recently found The Warning and have quickly become a fan. These young gals have real personality to go along with their musical talent. Each of them bring something powerful to their performances, but Paulina is a true beast on the drums.

[@maercnc6707]

Daniela and Paulina have their songs already established, Alejandra only does the choruses. In some performances, Alejandra sings Daniela's songs, but it is very rare that she does it very often.

[@TessT101]

What's not to love? The Warning is the real deal. I've seen them 3 times now and they bring it. Shredders. Simple as that.

[@Cuckoorex]

You're gonna love Queen of the Murder Scene. I get some classic Sabbath vibes from that one.

[@Sparky003]

All 3 have recent episodes of Gear Masters with rig rundowns released by Digital Tour Bus. Check them out.

This is my first time properly listening to this band after hearing some buzz about them. I'm blown away.

[@NickB5882]

Welcome to The Warning. They came. They rocked. They conquered.

[@DBTechYT]

Your mention of having the crowd in the palm of their hand and not giving them a choice to not participate is how I felt when I saw Otep. It was a small venue, but the stage presence was immense!!

[@LowEndUniversity]

Nice! Are they still active? That was a super cool group I remember hearing years ago. I don’t feel like I’ve heard their name in awhile. Thanks for stopping by man!

[@DBTechYT]

@@LowEndUniversity Thanks for the reply! I've been watching your stuff for a while now as I'm getting back into playing bass and I love your takes on different musicians. I just saw Otep live back in May of this year I think there was a new album launch not long ago. She sounds as good live as on her studio stuff.

[@LowEndUniversity]

Ah, good to know, I just haven’t been paying attention I suppose. And, I appreciate the nice words, glad you enjoy the content. Cheers!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@Cake_Doge]

I think you should give their latest album a listen. Released last year but recorded in 2020 with Ale with her custom Spector. These live mixes they share don't do justice to her crushing tone and groovy playing.

[@vacationpromo1669]

Welcome To Ms. PUH PAU'S World Were Just Livin In It !!! And Another Reactor Has Been PUH PAU ED !!! PUH PAU !!!

[@danieljodrey]

😂😂😂😂 Yep. You've been Warned! New sub, great reaction. Like others have said, their songwriting is not about rewriting the same song over and over. Always creative and pushing the new riffs and progressions. HOWEVER ...my best suggestion is to check out the entirety of the Teatro Metropolitan CDMX concert starting with either Z ( their opening song ) or Disciple one of their most dynamic. Both have the elements I think you are looking for. I LOVE THIS BAND !! ✌️🎼💖

[@warrenmccann9156]

None of their songs sound the same yet they have a style that is uniquely theirs. If I heard a song of theirs I had never heard before I would know it was them immediately.

[@LowEndUniversity]

Thank you so much Daniel! Appreciate the sub, and glad to have you here. I will probably do “Disciple” next from that same show, based on these comments. Cheers!!

[@danieljodrey]

@@LowEndUniversity great pick, but don't wait too long on Z; it's often overlooked but well worth it for the way it sets up the whole concert.

[@stk0308]

Halestorm took them out on tour. Lzzy was quoted that after really seeing these ladies work it made her think she's going to have to turn it up for the rest of the tour. "They attacked that audience ", or something to that effect. High praise from on hell of a rock n roll animal, like Lzzy!

[@AncientAmbience]

"More" also from the VMA, smashed it. "23" Live at teatro (amazing) "choke" also at the teatro. I just seen "breath" live at pepsi (get some tissues for that one)

[@luisvillarreal5262]

Killer female power trio. They’ve worked hard to get where they’re at, to the point that they are just having fun. You go, young ladies! 🤘🏼🎸🎸🥁🎤👍

[@alexsmaliblue-nowjadejeepr8618]

2024, and these ladies are opening for EVENESENCE with HaleStorm.. I also grew up with HEART.. this tour is going to be amazing

[@bensunkl]

Have been waiting for you to come back around to the ladies... thanks for another interesting and coherent reaction. These sisters have a lot of good stuff in their toolkit. One of their many superpowers is the ability to recognize opportunities when they come knocking, and be ready to seize that opportunity. They knew exactly how important this invitation was and they knew what to do to take full advantage of it. (Too bad that MTV didn't show the full performance instead of only 2 short clips). If this performance had gone over the air during the show it would have eclipsed everything else from that night. These ladies were born to perform together in front of huge crowds.

[@LowEndUniversity]

Thank you for your patience, I was stoked to get back to them. They’ve got an insanely bright future! See you around and I appreciate the kind words! 🙏🏼

[@bensunkl]

@@LowEndUniversity "Disciple" (live, Teatro) is a solid recommendation for another reaction, it is great for showing how easily the sisters can switch roles and it is a pretty 'showy' performance with the crowd participation and all. Mucho energy. One of the hidden gems that doesn't get mentioned much is "UGH" from Teatro. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZ7WfGero5itnM0 The (abbreviated) backstory on UGH is that they had a very difficult time composing the song but their Dad would not let them quit on it. Their work on UGH resulted in either two or 3 other songs for the concept album 'Queen Of The Murder Scene'. And, because you're a bass player, you might get a chuckle out of this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpXKe4mYf8uLrJo where Ale and the drum tech/stage manager loop a section from 'Dull Knives' while the sound guy, Lalo, tries to iron out some sound issues. Daniela and Paulina "help" Ale play bass and it is pretty comical.

[@jasonnord785]

Great, great band! Love them. They shine playing live. Go see them whenever you can.

[@robroblox8844]

Glad someone else noticed the B flat and how that completely changed the sound. This band needs to continue songs like this. Fast, high energy, metal-esq.

[@thancrow]

Dust to Dust is the prologue of Queen of the Murder Scene Which is a concept album made of four parts of three songs each. I believe they wrote it at ages 16, 14, and 11, (TWA will correct me if I am wrong,)

[@matthewmcknight5621]

They just absolutely EXPLODE on stage. This song, and these sisters kill. Such a fan

[@djay6651]

Their live performances are very intense and heavier than their studio recordings. These girls are proving girls can rock and rock hard.

I made an entire playlist of all the warning videos i reacted to, because they got me through rehab and early recovery. Love the song when im alone.

Wonderful reaction . Looking forward to more TW reactions. Blessings!

[@LowEndUniversity]

Thank you! You too!

[@OphidianBreeze]

Dany the lead singer and guitarists has the growl in her voice, Pau the drummer has the rasp in her voice, and Ale (pronounced Ah Lay) has the smooth and silky voice when she uses it. Ale isn't comfortable singing. But we're hoping she will sing lead sometime soon. Also Dany's responsibility is crowd, Pau's responsibility is the show (On live shows you'll notice a laptop to her left) and Ale keeps the band in time. Pau said Ale is like a machine that she's so on time it's scary

[@bepitan]

she moves well on stage ..serves the song and bearing in mind it's a three piece she provides the glue to hold the whole thing together...solid bassist.

[@williamburkholder769]

They really don't write bad songs. They might write in a wider variety of genres than some in their audience want to hear, but that's who they are, and we get to accept that. Even their first EP from 2015, *Escape the Mind,* has some pretty amazing tracks on it. All three of their albums are full of good work. *21sr Century Blood* goes from straight ahead rock to contemplative soft ballads and back. *Queen of the Murder Scene* is an angsty rock novel in four parts with three songs each, plus a prologue, *Dust to Dust.* That album contains one of their softest songs, *Crimson Queen,* and one of the hardest, *Queen of the Murder Scene.* It concludes with an anthemic ballad, *The End - Stars Never Seem to Fade.* *Error* is a slicker, more polished rock album, featuring songs like *Evolve,* yet still including sensitive ballads like *23* and *Revenant.* The ladies explained in one of their documentaries that they give each song the treatment it deserves as a lyrical composition. If that's strings and piano, so be it. If it's hard rock and screaming vocals, so be it. For me, that's 100% of the appeal. They can quietly rip your heart out with *Black Holes,* or melt your face off with *Animosity* or *Disciple,* or make you think about our circumstances with *21st Century Blood.* This is a true "head band." They want to make us think. They've been F-ing brilliant from day one! If we consume their music in the context of their growth, it makes a lot more sense, just as music from 1960s and '70s bands did.

[@johnfleischer2790]

When pau threw her head back and screamed it reminded me of animal from the muppet show. I loved it

[@musiholictara]
