Mark Kilpatrick and Gustavo Laureano met in Orlando, Florida where they studied sound engineering. After graduating they moved to Miami Beach and started working. They also began rehearsing in a local warehouse along with drummer John Lengel and guitarist Carlos Figueroa. They soon began writing and composing their songs and started playing at local clubs in Miami and Puerto Rico. It is during this time that artists like Ricky Martin and Ednita Nazario discovered them. In 1995, Martin recorded the song "Bombón de Azúcar" and in 1996, Nazario recorded "Ultima Vez", also written by Laureano.
Their debut album, Aniquila, was released in 1997 producing four Top 40 hit singles: "Se Acabó", "Recompensa", "Nunca Jamás" and "Bombón de Azúcar". After this and the success of this first album, the band released the follow-up titled La Secta Allstar in April 2001. In 2004, the band released a fourth album titled Túnel. The album won a Premio Lo Nuestro award in the category of Best Rock Album. Shortly after guitarist Carlos Figueroa left the band, and Mikey Genao replaced him. The band then released their fifth album, Consejo, with Universal Latino. Consejo is the most successful album from La Secta. The album was certified Gold and Platinum under the RIAA in only two months after its release. The mega hit La Locura Automática, reached #1 in more than 13 countries (5 months #1 in Colombia).
Asesino
La Secta Allstar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
muchas millas para llegar,
y si el rio esta crecido y la corriente te puede llevar,
y no salen las palabras de tu boca,
como quisiera escuchar
Y entre lo dos
palabras de amor
si algo se rompio en tu corazon
no quiero ser yo el asesino
no quiero ser yo el asesino
Paloma no puedes volar
quiero tus alas reparar
se han confudido los sue~os con las cosas que me pasan de verdad
y el secreto de tus besos me matan y no puedo decifrar
no, no
Y entre lo dos
palabras de amor
confundes la sangre con el vino
si algo se rompio en tu corazon
no quiero ser yo el asesino
no quiero ser yo el asesino
no quiero ser
no quiero ser
Y entre lo dos
palabras de amor
confundes la sangre con el vino
si algo se rompio en tu corazon
no quiero ser yo el asesino
no quiero ser yo el asesino
no quiero ser
no quiero ser
The lyrics to La Secta Allstar's song "Asesino" describe a complicated and emotionally fraught relationship. The first verse acknowledges the difficulties and challenges the singer faces in their life, including struggling to articulate their thoughts and feelings. The second verse introduces a character named Paloma who has metaphorically lost her ability to fly, and the singer expresses a desire to fix this. The chorus repeatedly affirms the singer's fear of being the "asesino" or the killer of the relationship, emphasizing the importance of communication and understanding between the two people.
The lyrics are somewhat abstract, but convey a sense of tension and confusion within the relationship. The repeated refrain of "no quiero ser yo el asesino" adds to this feeling, as the singer repeatedly expresses their desire to avoid harming the other person in the relationship. It's possible that the confusion and breakdown in communication between the two people is causing them to question whether they can continue their relationship or not, or alternatively, that the singer is grappling with their own internal struggles that are impacting the relationship.
