The smartest thing MTV has done in decades is feature The Warning.

[@Robertsmith-dy3sh]

I love just how open and honest they are, and when Ale dropped Sultans of Swing, just wow! They are mature and wise far beyond their years!

[@spidernose]

Ale has an old soul. I love it.

[@williamburkholder769]

This is a good sign for MTV. They could not find a better band to feature than The Warning. Ale is a true Introvert. Dany is the most extroverted, loving the spotlight. Pau is the creative - assertive and structured, analytical and restless, a motormouth, but not necessarily socially. She might PRESENT as an extrovert, but she's a deep thinker. They complement each other tremendously well. They play to and with each others' strengths. As a band they are lucky and fortunate, mostly as the result of hard work with their great support team of parents, manager, and all their other support people. They truly understand the concept of TEAM.

[@maxmacpherson1957]

We need an acoustic album and a live album!

[@franciscodiaz183]

It was a good interview to introduce the band to a new audience.

[@williamburkholder769]

Those of us who know all the nuances of their public past may forget that MTV will launch them in front of an entirely new audience. *Keep Me Fed* may be the first exposure to this band for most people who become new fans. Imagine their surprise at the back catalog!

[@Robtwenty-six]

I loved it when Ale said she wished she’d written Sultans of Swing. One of my all time favorites. Especially the alchemy performance. I think she’s an older soul than her sisters.

[@gaefferson1]

It’s a good honor ..if MTV would get off their ass and play music videos again it would be a smash ..

[@williamburkholder769]

The fact is, it has never been more affordable nor more easy to produce creative videos with very high quality. The Warning know this. MTV should work with music companies to get bands to do creative videos as promotions. A lot of us who watched in the 1980s would watch again, if the content were as good as *Que Mas Quieres* or *Six Feet Deep.*

[@oregonlt3]

Such a great interview. Lots of insight & personality. & yes, checking out all the songs they referenced would be a great series or even just 1 video for each person with clips of their choices. & also yes, Pau is a big classical fan. I’d never bet against her in“name that tune, classical edition”. She’s also mentioned Clair de lune as a favorite in other interviews (which makes sense from a pianist)

[@TinsleyLifeSkills]

An excellent little fall back to refer people to when they say no one "lets" Ale' talk. This is a great data bit and introduces them nicely to more of the world. Ale's T-Shirt gives a broad suggestion that is mentioned in other interviews and doc's. Take Care David

[@williamburkholder769]

Yep. I've always wanted to see Pau interview Ale, using questions written by Dany, Rudy, and their parents. But someone would have to help Pau be quiet while Ale talks! It would be good for all of them, and interesting to hear the answers and ensuing discussion!

[@cudnovati_]

I´m loving those musical references as well, always something new to learn about them.

[@KansaSCaymanS]

Ale seems to have become the designated historian for the origin of the band in recent interviews. 😎

[@jayhegener3028]

Yes, I wonder if that’s a tactic or compromise to keep her a bit more engaged than in the past. "You answer the first couple questions and then participate to your comfort level." Just a thought I had.

[@solarvanlife8177]

My life would be complete hearing Dany sing Lilac Wine in one of her midnight sessions....:)

[@spidernose]

Dany and Pau obviously know how good they are. I wish Ale knew what an amazing and beautiful badass she really is. Maybe if enough people tell her, she'll get the idea lol.

[@jluisg622]

The Warning el mejor rock del 2024 ,su presentación en MTV Push fue épica

[@javierornelas3558]

This MTV format really brings out their individual personality. Recently Ale has been more at ease with the interviews.

[@williamburkholder769]

Introverts sit back and learn from listening. When they speak, they have something important to say. Ale will surprise with her insights. She's had 19 years to watch her sisters and parents and that gives her insights her elders don't necessarily have.

[@markdicesare7936]

Next to my wife these ladies are my Automatic Sun😊

[@DadQuixote7]

I think this record is their Night at the Opera or Siamese Dream. This record will put them on the map. I remember hearing Siamese Dream when I was 11 years old, I fell in love with Smashing Pumpkins then someone told me about Gish, and I was blown away by it. I can't imagine just now discovering The Warning and then realizing they have 3 other previous full-length albums full of amazing songs. This band has an embarrassment of riches. Great time to be a fan of Rock music and The Warning!

[@kenmathis9380]

The new album took some getting used to for me. Repeated listenings have won me over, especially the 'unreleased' songs like Apologize and Sharks - damn, those are awesome songs! I do hope that the next album has less co-writing, tho. I'd love to see more sophisticated songwriting like 23, Z, and Disciple, but incorporating the new sounds and styles from KMF. Oh, and maybe some slightly longer songs. Thanks for sharing this. Love your channel and the insights you bring!

[@user-qg3jj4uc5k]

Ale Will soon figure out that she is the one who makes the band, and when she makes her first big song, 😁 I love her

[@reactionsaccount3955]

A KZbin channel called Ones To Watch just released an interview with them, that has some great original questions.

[@lonelywind3511]

This is a really good recommendation. Definitely had different questions than most. They explained a lot more about their individual roles in the band as far as writing and decision making. Also, Ale spoke more.

[@mexicanopolis9390]

Happy to see Ale participating more in the recent interviews published. She's quite smart and has always something interesting/insightful to say.

[@jayhegener3028]

She strikes me as the most grounded and, in some ways, sharpest of the 3. Dany and Pau frequently seem to check their facts or recollections by confirming with Ale. Remarkable young lady, despite having grown up in the shadow of those 2 fiery older sisters.

[@mexicanopolis9390]

@@jayhegener3028 the smartest and most lethal predators lies quietly in the shadows. Not for nothing panthers are Ale's favorite animals.

[@TomTomson81]

I find it really interesting and funny that Pau's main theme or reference is always death or leads to death. That's the case with writing, explaining the meaning of the song in interviews, and it's her biggest fear. Which then logically leads to all this. I think in general this is especially the case with creatively gifted people, simply because they invest more time in philosophizing and thinking in general than people who are less creative. It is also these kinds of people who often think about suicide. They are much more susceptible to it. This can be seen in the many artists who do not take good care of themselves and died. The girls have no problems with that. They have themselves and their safe environment.

[@paramisony618]

Great! Thanks! Esto ha sido muy bueno. Sería genial reaccionar a las referencias musicales de DPA, la mayoría muy conocidas, incluido El Cascanueces (yo también lloro con Tchaikovsky), y también podrían hacer ese tema de Jeff Buckley, o mejor aún el álbum, ya que lo conocen y podrían hacer un gran aporte a los oyentes. Bueno, gracias por seguir con The Warning.

[@SDsailor7]

There os a new podcast interview of the Warning called chefs kiss i believe its here on KZbin.

[@RussInCanada]

I was cd thrifting and there was a couple of young ladies beside me. I pulled a copy of Grace out, and held it out to them. They snickered like I was sharing a joke with them. I went "No. Seriously. You need to hear this.", and handed it to them, and they seemed genuinely converted. Hopefully they bought it and changed their lives.

[@kevinthetruckdriver353]

*DID YOU KNOW.........* Two things I found out when I read the credit booklet of my Pau cover (also have Dany, Ale & Full cover) cd of *"Keep Me Fed"* album. 😢 - Ale wasn't credited of singing backup on any track. Two guest backup vocalist sang backup on Automatic Sun. 😢 - Pau never sang lead on any track. Backup - yes. Lead - no. 😢 - None of the ladies played keyboards on this album. Maybe that's why I don't really care for this album. It was the producers, Anton DeLost, album. Since he produced it. Engineered, co-wrote & credited playing guitars & other instruments on every track.

[@pbrooks4040]

agree. i had buckley’s album on repeat. sad story, indeed. his dad was no slouch either.

[@aldomacias361]

Eres by Cafe Tacva is a great song.

[@CarlD70]

So glad MTV has realized who the ladies are...probably after their performance there that blew up their VMA show...my guess. I am hoping you are taking notes Glenn, I know you have already done one that Pau mentioned and it was great...the Ladies are giving us and you a whole bunch of references for their music listening...love this. These Ladies are so engaging and brilliant to listen to...we all learn a lot.....Adore these 3 Sisters to death. Much appreciation to you Glenn for continuing to bring us more Warning BTS and interviews...they are always interesting. Great point BTW, we all hope they are not rushed into the next album, mind you this is a great album for sure, but given time they will write some fabulous music for us...ie:, QOTMS, XXI century Blood, Error, they are more than capable to produce more exquisite music for us given some time....can't wait!! Love this, and much appreciation to you.

[@johnager6226]

❤✌🤘⚡🔥

[@RussInCanada]

Interested how in the latest interviews they introduce themselves as Dany, Pau and Alejandra.

[@delorangeade]

It's interesting to hear them talking about the co-writing, which says that they've got a bit of a commercial push behind them, and that's what tends to come with the territory. You can hear it in the new material which is very direct and hooky. It's something that's worked out very well for a lot of bands, but it always leaves a bit of a taste of artistic compromise, and some bands have lived to deeply regret it. I've known a couple of people who basically felt like they were getting pushed out of the process of making their own music. It can break up bands. Even The Monkees wanted to write their own songs before very long. It's interesting how wide their taste in music, most having nothing in common with the music they make as a band, and most of which I would never listen to. I expect they will eventually get round to solo projects or something more introspective.

[@Chuckles..]

The question of alternate careers, Ale is always like huh?. She's done this her whole life and is successful with her own money at 19, I can see why that question is strange for her.

[@rogerreed905]

Theres another interview done before japan on the channel . . "Ones to watch " . . Quite good . Not standard Qs . . . It sounds like Ale has had a bit more influence on the album sound than we thought . .

[@warrenschulze350]

Agree about the Error album! It has NO holes, whereas the "assembly line" KMF, does, at least to me! Thanks,as always, for bringing us this!

[@WaldoKitty]

i know *exactly* what Pau means about having no sense of time... i don't either and my hyperfocus doesn't help with it... especially when i am digging into a project that i have a huge interest in... hours (and days!) go by in mere minutes... many times i've looked at the clock and looked again a "few minutes" later only to realize 12, 18, 36 or more hours have gone by...

[@rogerreed905]

I thought their music references would surprise you

[@booradley8895]

Pau would DEFINITELY not make a good teacher.

[@franciscodiaz183]

Yes, you are right, and Paulina herself knows it and has said it before. She just doesn't have the patience that a teacher should have.

[@charlielightfoot7006]

@@booradley8895 Not sure what you're questioning. We listen to interviews. Pau is the primary spokesperson.

[@steve318k]

1:17 I don't get a good vibe on how they introduce themselves... With Danny as guitar and lead singer, and Pow & Ale as drummer and bass player... It's certainly seems like this album has been more focused on Danny being a singular lead singer and they're not being any or many co singing songs or nearly as many harmonies. I don't know if this is their direction, or a direction by the record company... Either way I'm not a fan of it

[@CERoyo]

I liked Keep Me fed very much. It's another no-skip album from The Warning. If I have to nitpick, I'll say that I could have done without the overuse of voice effects, compression, or whatever it is they did that made Dany's voice sound different in some songs. But there's always the live versions to do away with that, and this band eventually puts out live versions of most of their songs. The other nitpick is song length. Most are too short. You have a killer outro riff and you only play one bar? Come on! Play the Automatic Sun outro 2 or 3 or 4 extra bars, Enter Sandman style. Or at the very least, play extended outros when you play live. Regarding one of the songs Ale mentions on this video, The Warning did a rock version of Nelly Furtado's Maneater in the cave. On KZbin there is a short snippet of it, but I don't know if the whole song is included in a longer video, or if it's available on Instagram or Facebook.

[@glennandadriansrocktalk]

We'll look around - thanks!

[@fredhinckley8630]

@@glennandadriansrocktalk I believe they only did the short version...probably a Tic Tok thing. They did a few of those when they were stuck at home during the pandemic.

[@Chuckles..]

As an old fan I don't have a problem with the new songs, it's just these new songs would be much better if the production were on point, and it's simply not, i.e. _Sharks_ is brilliant but why the whining power tool sound in the beginning of the song???, It's annoying and unrelated to anything in the song. Everything producer David Bendeth did with Error was so tasteful, I _really really_ hope they bring him back for the next one.

[@glennandadriansrocktalk]

I hear you - that's a common concern. I like Bendeth's production; that whole process was also superior in a lot of ways - particularly the endless amount of time they had to work, and the fact the band created every sound used on the record, which wasn't the case here. Delost provided most of each track on the album and seems to have worked independently, with the band giving feedback on his contributions. I think a major problem was the lack of time allotted to recording the album, possibly to avoid downtime when the band could be making money, and this also meant Delost probably had more leeway than he might have otherwise had to make creative decisions just to see what the band would say about them - and of course there's a deadline involved. Given all this, I think the album came out incredibly well. It is catchy, granted I'm not a fan of everything Delost did but I still think it plays well. I'm always going to prefer their live performances - that's where the magic can always be found.

[@bapbernardo]

After listening some times to all the songs in the new album, I can say that QotMS remains my favorite one from them, followed by XXICB and Error, and I think it will be so until their contract with their recording company and their workaholic routine keeps on. Their hectic schedule doesn't allow them to sit down and write the complex lyrics with tailor-made melodies we've been used to listen and enjoy very much. I think they are in this 'hell' we 'call a dream' and I just wish they were back to Earth, to live life more, have new experiences and bring us fresh songs out of that. In this new album, I hear lots of influences from the likes of Three Days Grace, Halestorm, Muse and Royal Blood, who they'd been touring with. Don't get me wrong: KMF is a very good album (not a bad or 'skip' song there for me), and I think it's better than the latest albums released by the bands I've just mentioned. But something about overproduction - the heavy synth-like effects on the vocals, guitar and bass - the rushed creative processes, other people writing the lyrics with them, although good for DPA as musicians - as they were given the opportunity to work with some of the best creative minds on the métier -, took away something out of that rawness, I can even say 'purity', we were used to get from them through their music. Perhaps I had some high expectations which couldn't be met as I wished and looked forward to, or maybe these songs will be great after seeing them performed live or after more listening and time. Now I just hope the music industry and the business don't corrupt the essence of our beloved Mexican power trio and may they continue on their journey to stardom! Given my considerations, I wish the best things for DPA and their staff! May they keep on rockin' hard!

[@78Mustang]

​@@bapbernardo Well said!

[@Chuckles..]

@@glennandadriansrocktalk I think your spot on with your assessment of Delost. And yes their live performance is where it's at. They have some huge shows in Mexico in early 2025 and it's safe to say those will be well recorded!.

[@charlielightfoot7006]

I think many people are too quick to blame Anton DeLost for everything they don't like. Unless the sisters come right out and tell us, no one knows how much is DeLost and how much is the sisters. I'm sure he gave them ideas, but I have no doubt they had the final approval of the entire process. Ideas were thrown against the wall, but DPA decided what stuck. The Warning is not some Frankenstein monster created by a mad scientist. Too many fans want to tinker with their music instead of just letting it be what it is.
