Firstly it… Read Full Bio ↴Machetazo was born in the year 1994 in La Coruña, Spain.
Firstly it was just a side project into noisegrind, until Dopi left his previous band. He decided to focus on Machetazo, taking it to an absolute level of dedication. He changed the musical orientation, skipping noisecore and turning it into old-school 80s grindcore with influences of nordic death metal. Imagine a mix between Terrorizer, Repulsion, Carcass, Autopsy, Nihilist, Carnage and Funebre and you get the point of what Machetazo is about.
The second demotape Realmente Disfruto Comiendo Cadáveres was the one who opened a lot of gates, catching the attention of Charlie Infection (ex-drummer of Psycho). He released it on 10"MLP and getting proposals for a few splits and the deal with the New York based label Razorback Records.
During the first years Machetazo was mostly Dopi's project with various collaborators and members going in and out. After the release of the first album Carne de Cementerio Rober came at guitars as a definitive member. Rober and Dopi recorded the second album Trono de Huesos and just after the release Carlos came as bassist in the year 2001. Now Machetazo started to be a real band, a classic power trio, trying hard to survive in a country with zero support for underground extreme music and fighting trends and obstacles everyday.
Machetazo had a strong reputation and feedback worldwide specially in the USA, Mexico and Japan. The high points in band's history were the split EPs with cult acts like Corrupted, Abscess or General Surgery and the special guest vocals made by Chris Reifert (Abscess, ex-Autopsy, ex-Death) on their album Sinfonías del Terror Ciego.
Finally they split in 2014.

The lyrics of Machetazo's song "Totem" describe violent and disturbing themes related to possession and insanity. The singer seems to be reveling in their psychopathic tendencies and desire to provoke and intimidate others. The chorus refers to the totem made of human remains - an ominous and disturbing image that suggests the singer has a fascination with death and destruction.
The verses of the song are filled with grisly descriptions of body parts and gore. The singer describes organs hanging from the totem, including eyes and tongues - a gruesome and unsettling image. The final lines of the song suggest a desire for more victims to add to the totem, indicating that the singer is a violent and dangerous individual.
The overall tone of the song is one of darkness and horror. The lyrics paint a grotesque picture of violence and madness that is both disturbing and fascinating. The use of a totem made of human remains as a central image adds to the unsettling atmosphere of the song.
