Their name comes from a Spanish language word meaning "witchcraft". Their Satanic, narcotic, and masked attitude have been their passport to success, although they have recently performed live at locations across the United States and Latin America. Their songs, which are sung entirely in Spanish, are focused on Satanism, anti-Christianity, sex, immigration, narcotics smuggling, and politics and also include lyrics about killing Whites.

Brujeria is admittedly a side-project of founding member and Asesino stalwart Dino Cazares, 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, however, and could be different at any point in time.

Dino Cazares and Nick Barker quit Brujeria on January 26, 2004. The only remaining members of Brujeria left are Juan Brujo, Fantasma and Shane Embury. Brujeria has recently resurfaced with two new members and will begin touring soon. Asesino's band is still going strong, and Asesino himself describes the band as the new Brujeria, because he claims that Juan Brujo was the reason Brujeria demised.

Despite their unconventional career thus far, Brujeria has built a large fan base within the metal underground.

Brujeria is tentatively scheduled to release a new studio album in late 2006/early 2007, but details about it are unknown.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Qué pasó con nuestro revolución
Creen que esto se acabó
Sangre sureña no se gastó
Quién va mandar los del norte!
Pancho Villa no murió
Aquí tengo su espíritu
Aunque no creas en Brujos
Con el machete

Zapatismo no murió

Aquí tengo su espíritu
Aunque no creas en Brujos
División Del Norte
Pa que Viva México!
División Del Norte!
Van a ver nuestra revolución
Están oyendo que esto no se acabó
Sangre sureña nos llamó
Listo! División Del Norte!

Pancho Villa no murió
Aquí tengo su espíritu
Aunque no creas en Brujos
Con el machete
Zapatismo no murió
Aquí tengo su espíritu
Aunque no creas en Brujos
División Del Norte
Pa que Viva México!
División Del Norte!

Pa que Viva México!
División Del Norte!
Viva nuestra revolución
Otra vez Villa va mandar
Desde el cielo tus oidos dicen
"Juntense todos, griten pa guerra!"
Pancho Villa no murió
Aquí tengo su espíritu
Aunque no creas en Brujos
Con el machete

Zapatismo no murió
Aquí tengo su espíritu
Aunque no creas en Brujos
División Del Norte
Pa que Viva México!
Pa que Viva México!
Pa que Viva México!
División Del Norte

Pa que Viva México!

Overall Meaning

The song Division Del Norte by Brujeria is a call to arms to the people of Mexico to continue their fight for liberation and revolution. The lyrics express the sentiment that the spirit of revolutionary leaders such as Pancho Villa and the philosophy of Zapatismo still live on and continue to inspire the people. The song highlights the fact that the struggles of the southern part of Mexico are not over and encourages the formation of a new division in the north to carry on the fight.

The repeated phrase "Aunque no creas en Brujos" (even if you don't believe in witches) could be interpreted as a statement on the skepticism and cynicism towards revolutionary movements that may exist amongst some people, but the song encourages unity and determination in the face of adversity. The use of Pancho Villa as a symbol of the revolutionary spirit harkens back to the early 1900s and the Mexican Revolution, providing a historical context for the lyrics.

Overall, the song is a powerful call to action, urging the people of Mexico to continue their fight for freedom and justice, and reminding them that the struggles of the past are still relevant today.
