Their lyrics, which are entirely in Spanish, focus on anti-Christianity, critique of the U.S. immigration policies, exaltation of figures like the XIX century Mexican revolutionary "Pancho Villa" and the infamous 80's Colombian drug lord "Pablo Escobar" (El patrón - The Boss). Other recursive subjects in their songs are a libertarian political revolution, parodies involving Catholic saints prostitution, Satanism and "Santería", narcotics smuggling, also including performances about killing some U.S. white people (the "gringos").
It would be a mistake to appreciate Brujeria with serious concern, since their embrace of the absurdity of violence in the Mexico/U.S. border socierties follows a tradition of Mexican/chicano political humor with roots in earlier centuries. Since their very start they have confronted ambivalent patterns going from explicit racial hatred and closed Satanism to more mature and realistic points of view. One of their lyrics from the album Raza Odiada "Hatred Race" have changed in time: the first version of Pito Wilson talks about killing white people indiscriminately, while the second version extends the intro and does mention the fact that politics like Pete Wilson stand in racial hatred against Latin people so Latin people must strike back stronger "wet brothers of the U.S. who will fuck you more? It isn't Satan. It is the hatred race of the world [...] Pito (Central American slang for "dick", though the dictionary definition is "whistle") Wilson hate our race[...]". There are too some political contents promoting the Mexican indigenous communist revolution (Zapatistas) and so on.
Brujeria is admittedly a side-project of the founding member and Asesino ("Assassin") stalwart Dino Cazares, featuring artists such as Bill Gould (ex-Faith No More), Nicholas Barker (ex- Cradle of Filth), Raymond Herrera (ex-Fear Factory), Jeff Walker (ex-Carcass), and Shane Embury (Napalm Death). Their lineup has changed over time and would be different at any point.
Dino Cazares and Nick Barker left Brujeria on January 26, 2004. The only remaining members of Brujeria are the two Latino singers, "Juan Brujo" and "Fantasma", as well as Shane Embury. Brujeria has recently resurfaced with two new members and has been touring Latin America. Asesino's band is still going strong, and Asesino himself describes the band as the new Brujeria, because of the claims that Juan Brujo was the reason Brujeria demised. However, the old archaic and rude style of the band is missing into the new Asesino's work which happens to be more commercially focused.
Despite their unconventional career thus far, Brujeria has built a large fan base within the Metal underground.
The "new" Brujeria is tentatively scheduled to release their fourth full-length studio album sometime in 2008, though further details are unknown.

Brujeria Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
¡Que no cojas a nadie por la noche!
El mundo está lleno de hijos de puta
Todos son negros, drogadictos, asesinos
¡Que asco!
Muerte cayó de el cielo
Chingo todo tiene nada
Busca Tuya y de tu madre.
Uso lo que me encuentro
Te estrello con la pala
Dejo tu verga perforada
Traigo alambre y unas pinzas
ASESINO....ASESINO
Mato fresas a cien pesos
Esos jotos dos por uno
Por un negro no te cobro
Me vale madre mato todos
No me pelo a el bote
Con un shank mato güeros
No le temo a la muerte
Solo putos muertos quedan.
ASESINO....ASESINO
Desgraciado
Destripado
Soy maldito
Balasiado
Despedazado
Desencarnado
Soy maldito
Mueres violado.
The lyrics to Brujeria's song "Asesino" are sung in Spanish, and they speak of violence and murder. The opening lyrics translate to "I've told you a thousand times! Do not pick anybody up at night! The world is full of sons of bitches, all of them are black, drug addicts, killers. Disgusting!" This gives the listener a sense of the singer's frustration and rage towards people. The song then goes on to describe how death fell from the sky and how the singer uses any weapon at his disposal, be it a shovel or wire and pliers, to kill people. The chorus repeatedly asserts that the singer is a murderer, by saying "Asesino."
The lyrics are dark and disturbing, but they reflect the political and social climate of the time when the song was released in 1993. Brujeria was a Mexican-American death metal band, and their type of music often dealt with heavy themes like violence and death. The song borrows from the narco-culture of Mexico, where violence and drug trafficking are prevalent. It speaks of killing people for money or for the color of their skin and shows a lack of empathy for human life. Overall, the song is a commentary on the brutality of life, particularly for marginalized people.

Brujeria apadrinó a la banda asesino, sacando esta canción en el album mextremist de brujería porque el album corridos de muerte (de la banda asesino en su totalidad) estaba por salir y este track era una especie de propaganda. En ese tiempo brujeria también apadrinó al grupo de rap 7 notas 7 colores para que tuvieran una difusión en EEUU todos estos discos bajo el sello coolarrow que en ese tiempo brujería manejaba. Digamos que el brujo estaba queriendo dar apertura a varias bandas raras no solo de metal y salieron cosas como kultur shock y el compendio spanglish 101. Al final Dino Cazares se apartó del brujo y la sociedad terminó.
