Mexican rock band The Warning has officially earned their place among the music industry’s rising stars. The powerhouse trio—consisting of sisters Daniela, Paulina, and Alejandra Villarreal—has just received their first-ever plaque from Billboard, marking an incredible milestone in their fast-rising career.
The plaque recognizes the band’s impressive performance on multiple Billboard charts. Most notably, The Warning claimed the #1 spot on Billboard’s Emerging Artists chart, a category that highlights the most promising and fast-rising talents in the music world. This top ranking not only underscores their growing global presence but also cements their reputation as a force to be reckoned with in modern rock.
Their album also made a substantial impact across multiple charts. The band secured #4 on the Top Hard Rock Albums chart, showcasing their resonance within the genre and among hard rock fans. Furthermore, they achieved #6 on the Top Album Sales chart—an impressive feat for an independent band competing in a landscape often dominated by major-label releases. This recognition reflects both strong fan support and the quality of their musical output.
Formed in Monterrey, Mexico, The Warning began turning heads with viral YouTube covers and quickly transitioned into original songwriting that blends raw emotion, complex instrumentation, and commanding vocals. Over the years, they’ve grown from internet sensations to international performers, sharing stages with bands like Muse, Foo Fighters, and Halestorm. Their distinctive sound—rooted in hard rock but infused with progressive and alternative elements—has earned them a fiercely loyal global fanbase.
Their recent album, which has drawn widespread critical and commercial acclaim, serves as a testament to their growth and dedication. With lyrics that explore themes of identity, struggle, and empowerment, combined with thunderous drums, gritty riffs, and powerful vocals, the album resonates on a deep level with fans.
Receiving their first Billboard plaque is more than just an industry accolade—it’s a validation of years of hard work, artistic evolution, and a close-knit bond between three sisters who’ve forged a unique path in rock music. This achievement marks a turning point in their career and signals that The Warning is not just an emerging act, but one poised for long-term impact on the global rock scene.
Congratulations to The Warning for this well-deserved recognition. If these chart-topping accomplishments are any indication, they’re only just beginning.
