Single Review
Mexican based band HOCICO was formed in 1992 by the cousins Erk and Rasco. The aggression on ‘Cursed Land’ and ‘Sangre Hirviente’ was channelled for maximum impact and combined with catchy melodies and harsh beats. This concept managed to appeal to an ever-growing fan base, although the band’s basic concept remained the same. Sex, lies, death, abuse and religion have always dominated the group’s lyrics. Meanwhile, it’s just the same of the same again. Many people think that Out Of Line kills the creativity of HOCICO which now sounds like other little bands around. A shame for a very good band (a lot of people would say the best of the scene for the period 1995-2005). Now it’s a band for the masses… It sounds like KRIMINAL MINDS... where is the aggression which was so typical for HOCICO? There’s just hope it is back on the upcoming album…
