Monterrey, Mexico's favourite rock trio, The Warning, is firing up the scene with the announcement of their upcoming album, 'Keep Me Fed', dropping June 28th, 2024, via Lava/Republic Records. With the new album, the sisters of Daniela "Dany" (guitar, lead vocals, piano), Paulina "Pau" (drums, vocals, piano), and Alejandra "Ale" Villarreal (bass, piano, backing vocals) are ready to take fans on a sonic rollercoaster.
In talking about the story behind the decision to name the album 'Keep Me Fed', “throughout the whole process, the work was consuming us,” says Pau. “By impacting everything we did, the album kept us fed both creatively and personally. We’re inviting other people to participate and consume it too.”
Bulldozing the way for the record’s arrival, they just unveiled two singles, namely 'Hell You Call A Dream' and the Spanish-language 'Qué Más Quieres'. Each song is also accompanied by its own lyric video, which you can check out below. The singles offer enticing glimpses into their evolution, with haunting melodies and blistering guitar hooks, 'Hell You Call a Dream' explores the highs and lows of a musician's life, while the fiery 'Qué Más Quieres' injects Latin attitude into a universal rock anthem.
Illuminating the band’s evolution, the tracks hint at the breadth of their stunning signature style. On 'Hell You Call A Dream', co-written and produced by Anton Delost (Highly Suspect, Mayday Parade_ and Dan Lancaster (MUSE, Bring Me The Horizon_, an arresting keyboard melody wraps around the punchy bassline. A distorted guitar groove anchors a hard-hitting hook, “Give me something to believe, in this hell you call a dream.” Dany notes, “‘Hell You Call A Dream’ tries to express a feeling most musicians find hard to express. When you’re touring, you experience the positives, the negatives, and the whole spectrum of emotion all at once. It’s about how something you love so much can be something that also weighs you down, but you continue to do it out of love. It’s fulfilling, but it’s tiring.”
The three-piece further flaunt their fiery versatility on 'Qué Más Quieres'. It tempers a robust riff with an electronic flurry, giving way to a chantable chorus with the power to resonate worldwide. “The title translates to ‘What else do you want?’,” Pau reveals. “It’s about taunting and manipulating. We were thinking of the TikTok phrase, ‘Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss’, and turned it into a song.” Dany goes on, “It means a lot to sing in our language and represent our country. Over the years, doors have finally opened for Mexican women in rock, and we’re actively participating in opening these doors where we can.” Stay tuned for more soon.
The band's meteoric rise includes a 2023 MTV VMAs performance, the chart-climbing fan favorite 'S!CK' and sold-out tours across the globe. They'll soon hit Mexico's Pa'l Norte and Vive Latino festivals, followed by a full-scale, month-long European tour.
The Warning's journey is a family affair turned rock n' roll powerhouse. Their tight-knit bond, raw talent, and infectious energy have turned them into alt-rock superstars. 'Error' proved their mettle in 2022, and judging by their recent trajectory, and stadium tours with the likes of MUSE and Guns N' Roses, 'Keep Me Fed' is poised to cement them as the future of rock.
