“No Warning has shed its tough guy shell and sounds a lot like a cross between fellow countrymen Sum 41 and Linkin Park than the ultraviolent and angry band everyone used to love… While the good old NYHC stomp is less apparent than previous offerings, tracks like “Modern Eyes” could still incite a riot” – Mike Sos (In Music We Trust)

“The fast-rising Toronto band No Warning, puts a whole new slant on hardcore with a sound that mixes melody with mayhem… The result is Suffer, Survive, a collection of No Warning originals that make a rock solid connection between full-on hardcore and fully melodic songwriting.” – MTV

“…The blog also reveals that the band have found an immediate replacement in Jordan Posner, former guitarist for influential Toronto hardcore band No Warning. “The only person we had even really talked about or spoke to about stepping up to fill the Big Man’s shoes was our friend Jordan from the now defunct Toronto HC band No Warning,” Vogel says. “For anyone that knows me or has read interviews with me you’ll know that I love No Warning and really all of Terror do. Jordan has proved to be an amazing songwriter and dude so we are excited about this change.” – Josiah Hughes (Exclaim News)

“Refining its rowdy but precise take on New York-style hardcore punk… No Warning’s sound is far from melodic – singer Ben Cook is a vitriolic, atonal screamer in the grand tradition – but it’s more complex and nuanced than that of many of the group’s contemporaries.” – Rick Anderson (Allmusic)

No Warning was a hardcore punk band from Toronto, Canada. The band was founded in 1998 under the name As We Once Were by singer Ben Cook and guitarists Matt Delong and Alan “Yeti” Riches. They released two demos, both in 1998, as “As We Once Were”. The band subsequently renamed itself No Warning. Their first release under that name was a three-song demo tape. They released their legendary 7″ on New York label, Martyr Records in 2001. Later that year, Boston based Bridge 9 Records re-released the 7″ on CD with different artwork and the demo tape as bonus tracks.
The band continued to play shows across the east coast of the USA and Canada with hardcore punk bands such as Hatebreed, Madball, Sick Of It All, Terror and Bane. They also appeared respectively at annual hardcore festivals such as Hellfest (punk festival) (NY) and Posi Numbers Fest (PA). In the fall of 2002, No Warning released what some fans consider to be the band’s best work and a monumental album of that era of hardcore, Ill Blood. Throughout more touring, the band came in contact with Sum 41 manager/producer Greig Nori.
While working with Nori, the band developed a more radio friendly edge to their sound and signed to Machine Shop Records, a label founded by Linkin Park, and distributed through Warner Bros. Records. Suffer, Survive was released in late 2004. The band continued to tour with more high-profile bands such as Linkin Park, Sum 41, Papa Roach, The Used, Fear Factory, as well as older punk band SNFU, and up and coming bands such as Funeral for a Friend and Saosin.
The Band was a part Linkin Park’s 2004 Projekt Revolution Tour on which bands from Korn to Snoop Dogg, Ghostface Killah and Less Than Jake played. The band also played at the Summer Sonic Festival in Tokyo and Osaka, Japan. After a lot of time spent on tour and different directions the band wanted to take, No Warning broke up in late 2005. Members went on to form bands such as Surplus Sons, Marvelous Darlings, and Millennial Reign, among other projects. Ben Cook now plays in Fucked Up. Jordan Posner plays in Terror.
