Not illustrated. Excerpt: Brujeria is an extreme metal band formed in Tijuana, Mexico in 1989. Their name comes from the Spanish word for "witchcraft". Their songs, which are sung entirely in Spanish, are focused on Satanism, anti-Christianity, sex, immigration, narcotics smuggling, politics and also include lyrics about killing white people. Brujeria are admittedly a side-project of guitarist Dino Cazares (founding member of Fear Factory), and has featured artists such as Billy Gould, Nicholas Barker, Raymond Herrera, Jeff Walker and Shane Embury. They perform under pseudonyms and portray themselves as a Latino band consisting of drug lords, concealing their identities due to being wanted by the FBI. Their lineup has changed over time and could be different at any point in time. Brujeria formed at a party in 1989, by which time there was much discrimination against Latin American metalheads. Moreover, the majority of extremist groups in the area sang in English, which is why the founders decided to create a grindcore and death metal band that represents the Hispanic community. Its members, the guitarist Dino Cazares, Jello Biafra, drummer Pat Hoed, bass guitarist Billy Gould and vocalist Juan Brujo, used pseudonyms as most were members of other known bands. The band was criticized from its inception because of its lyrics about drugs, sex and Satanism. This is because the main concept of the band was inspired by the story that shook Mexico on 11 April 1989 at the Rancho Santa Elena, in Matamoros, where there were satanic rituals. The same year they released their first single, "¡Demoniaco!" and two years later another entitled "Machetazos". In "Machetazos" came the first change in the group with the departure of Jello Biafra, the integration of Pinch.
