I’ve been to a lot of shows at The Ritz, but few have hit as hard or as cleanly as The Warning did. From the second the lights dimmed and the “Blob Tape Intro” rolled, it was clear we were in for a ride. The crowd was buzzing, and the moment “Six Feet Deep” kicked in, the room absolutely exploded.
What followed was a relentless, high-octane set that reminded me exactly why I love live music. The Warning don’t just perform. They command.

The early run of “S!ck,” “Satisfied,” and “Choke” was pure fire. Dany’s vocals were gritty and emotional, her guitar tone sharp and cutting. Pau is a monster on drums. Her energy could’ve powered the entire venue. Ale held it all down with her punchy, hypnotic basslines. Their chemistry is unreal, and it bleeds into every second of their set.
One of my favorite transitions of the night came between “Intro 404” and “Disciple.” They nailed the timing, and the energy in the room hit a whole new level. When they played “Martirio,” it was haunting and beautiful. You could feel the crowd holding their breath until the last note dropped. Hearing them go bilingual live added so much depth and connection to the moment.
By the time they hit “Narcisista” and closed with “Automatic Sun,” the place was completely unglued. I was hoarse from singing, drenched in sweat, and completely satisfied. Every person around me had the same look: “Holy sh*t, that was incredible.”
🎸 No Gimmicks, Just Pure Rock
The Warning don’t rely on pyrotechnics, flashy visuals, or choreographed stunts. They bring what a true rock show should: heart, heaviness, and authenticity. You can tell these three sisters believe in every word they sing and every riff they play. It’s personal, it’s powerful, and it’s unforgettable.
I left The Ritz that night reminded of why I fell in love with music in the first place. If you ever get the chance to see The Warning live, do it. This is the kind of band that proves rock isn’t just alive. It’s thriving.
