The Warning
In October, the band released their MAYDAY EP via LAVA/Republic Records that included standout singles “CHOKE,” “EVOLVE”, “DISCIPLE”, and “MARTIRIO.” Produced by the legendary David Bendeth (Paramore, Bring Me The Horizon, Breaking Benjamin), the project is an electrifying musical rollercoaster that offers an unapologetic look at issues faced by the younger generation today — from ever-present technology, communication problems caused by generation gaps, love, anxiety, and the overwhelming pressure to suppress emotions. In addition, the band’s cover of “Enter Sandman” was featured on The Metallica Blacklist, the 30-year anniversary reissue of Metallica’s legendary self-titled album. It’s a continuation of a musical journey the trio kicked off by building a grassroots fanbase through their powerful online presence — quickly amassing over 120 million YouTube views and 15 million streams. They quickly captured the attention and admiration of a lineup of rock legends and were invited to perform with Alice Cooper, The Killers, Def Leppard, and most recently Metallica at the Welcome To Rockville Festival. As The Warning takes the stage for its first U.S. headline tour, they do so on a wave of media acclaim from Loudwire, Rolling Stone and Rolling Stone Mexico, Billboard Argentina, and many more.

Scratch a film critic, and you're likely to find a jazz buff. That the opposite is also true was suggested as far back as the 1930s by Otis Ferguson, the startlingly prescient critic who covered jazz, when it was a genuinely popular art, along with Hollywood movies, then entering their classical phase, for The New Republic. It's demonstrated again by Gary Giddins, the eminent jazz critic of The Village Voice from 1973 to 2003, and more recently the DVD columnist ...
