I'm screaming the lyrics in the happiest voice ever not realising the lyrics are about cleaning blood off the sheets and shooting people 😂  Yeah, why would you make songs about obsessive stalking and murder catchy? They must have learned from Ghost 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thizzellewashington Posted May 15, 2022 Author Share Posted May 15, 2022 Queen of the Murder Scene has some great stuff on it but both of the two full-length albums are pretty uneven to me, which is understandable because they were all teenagers when they made it so they were still finding their sound and figuring out what they were. I think this current EP is them really hitting their stride. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that they did those two albums as teenagers is what impresses me the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knew an album about a woman who is so obsessively in love with someone that she resorts to murder could be so enjoyable and fun to sing along with. Wait I think I need that in my life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sampled it and that was the last straw. Sadly there don't seem to be physical copies of any of their releases? Digital it is then. Â Also what? They were on the Metallica Blacklist covers album? With... Alessia Cara singing? Why tho... why not just let The Warning sing for themselves? Oh well, exposure is exposure. I wonder if a bunch of Alessia Cara fans are into The Warning now.

I thought I was looking in the wrong section. I guess I wasn't. Crimson Queen is the first song in the story. The song before it, Dust To Dust, is the prologue.  They did a cover of Enter Sandman back when they were just fetuses. I guess that video has like 30 million views and that's how they first got noticed. The cover for the Black album anniversary I think is an updated version of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thizzellewashington Posted May 16, 2022 Author Share Posted May 16, 2022 FWIW they do sell physical CDs of all their albums. They had them at the merch table when I saw them last month. I wanted to buy them but they were $20 each and I didn't feel like spending that much on three CDs. But they do exist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should sell them online too! Â Of course they probably make more off of each disc only selling them in person, so more power to them. Another reason to go see them too. Actually kinda a smart marketing move for their level of popularity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, perhaps they know better than anyone that nobody buys albums anymore. Just about all their marketing seems to be done via the internet too. I don't think Lava is that big of a record label either. But they signed with them because they weren't going to control what the band wanted to do unlike the major labels who tried to recruit them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like they’re smart too.

It looks like all 6 songs from the EP as well as "Money" are going to be on the album but they're interspersed in the track list throughout so it's not like that was part 1 and the new stuff is part 2. 14 tracks in total.

I get that most people don't buy albums anymore and that's why the band has gone with the all digital approach. But they have nothing in their merch store and I think it would be good for them to at least have their music available in physical form for those who do want to have it that way. I feel like the band is really missing out on an extra revenue stream that can help them out as they start to rise in popularity. But I'm in my 40s and am no longer young and in touch with things. So, perhaps they know more than I do when it comes to this stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I'm not sure why it irks me so much. We still get to hear the music regardless of the format. I guess it's the store being completely empty is what bothers me the most since I have never seen that with any other band unless it was a small local one.

thizzellewashington Posted June 11, 2022 Author Share Posted June 11, 2022 From what I'm hearing, there will eventually be a physical release (CD and vinyl) but it won't come out on the 24th because of manufacturing delays like every band is dealing with post-COVID.

Â Yeah, Dany said this during her live chat yesterday. I figured since everything has been opened back up for a while that manufacturing delays wouldn't be so bad still that we don't even have the option to order physical copies though. I'm not so sure about these people at Lava records right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
