Brujería is a Spanish word that means “witchcraft”. The band was formed in 1989 by Juan Brujo, Fantasma, Billy Gould, and Asesino (who formed Fear Factory around the same time). They were “on hiatus” numerous times due to members leaving or being constantly involved in other bands.
The members of Brujeria portray Mexican drug lords who use nicknames to keep their identities secret. Many people still don’t know the identities of the band (as they’ve never been officially confirmed), but it is assumed by most that the true identities of the members listed here are correct.
Fantasma hasn’t toured with the band since 2014, and Shane Embury since 2022.
RIP Juan Brujo.
