The band was officially formed in Mexico City, Mexico in 1993 by Erk Aicrag (lyrics & vocals) and Racso Agroyam (programming), but both cousins had been making electronic music since they were fifteen years old. The names are anagrams of the real names Erik Garcia and Oscar Mayorga.

Their music can be described as dark and aggressive electronica or more specifically as aggrotech. The lyrics are commonly in English, however, they are sometimes in Spanish.

Their logo is a six legged spider with an H on its back.

The Spanish word Hocico (pronounced "Oseeko") means snout and is a derogatory term that indicates ugliness (i.e., ugly as a dog's snout).

Racso Agroyam has a side project called Dulce Liquido.
Erk Aicrag's solo project is called Rabia Sorda.

Come and Eat It!
Hocico Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come and eat it

I'm not accepting your resolutions, accusations, tribulations
I'm just me and I will fire in all directions
Just to see the corpses bleed
If you want to, to destroy me
You've gotta taste before you try
Eat, drink, tomorrow we die

Come now, come and eat it
Come and waste it
Come and waste it, it's your life
Come now, come and eat it
Come and waste it
Come and waste it, it's your life
Come and eat it

I won't leave room for doubts, you get this
You know I already sold my soul, my soul
I sold my soul to the devil
To the bastards who cut the rope
If you want to destroy me
You've gotta taste before you try
Eat, drink, tomorrow we die

Come now, come and eat it
Come and waste it
Come and waste it, it's your life
Come now, come and eat it
Come and waste it
Come and waste it, it's your life
Come now, come and eat it
Come and waste it
Come and waste it, it's your life
Come and eat it

Eat, eat, eat it now

Come now, come and eat it

Come and waste it
Come and waste it, it's your life

Overall Meaning

Hocico's song "Come and Eat It!" is a powerful and provocative anthem that seems to speak to a sense of rebellion and defiance. The lyrics reflect a stance of rejecting what others might think of the singer and embracing a certain nihilistic attitude towards life. The opening lines state a refusal to accept the judgments or criticisms of others, emphasizing the singer's individuality and their willingness to fight against anyone who challenges it. The reference to firing in all directions and seeing corpses bleed suggests a violent and aggressive approach to confrontation.

The refrain "come now, come and eat it" is repeated multiple times throughout the song, which can be interpreted in a few different ways. It may refer to the idea of consuming or devouring something, whether it be food, experiences, or life itself. It could also be a taunt directed at those who would seek to destroy the singer, as if to say "if you want to take me down, you'll have to take a bite first." The line "tomorrow we die" seems to further this sense of urgency and recklessness, implying that there is no sense in holding back or being cautious.

Overall, "Come and Eat It!" is a bold statement of defiance and nihilism that urges the listener to embrace their individuality and to consume life without reservation.
