''Matando Güeros'' and controversy (1993–1994)

Controversy was created by the cover of their first album ''

Subsequently, the image of the head would become an emblem of the band, transforming themselves into their mascot known as ''Coco Loco'' ("mad/crazy bogeyman" or "mad/crazy head" in Mexican slang), and is seen frequently on album covers and merchandise. The severed head is of a drug dealer in a photo taken from a Mexican publication. This album saw the addition of Shane Embury on guitar and bass guitar.


''Raza Odiada'', ''Marijuana'' and ''Spanglish 101'' (1995–1999)

In 1995, they released their second full-length '' Raza Odiada'', with the usual themes but with significant changes in their music and for many critics and fans their best work to date. ''Raza Odiada'' featured the single "La Ley De Plomo", whose music video proved successful on music channels such as

Commercial success with ''Brujerizmo'' and ''Mextremist Hits!'' (2000–2001)

In 2000, 5 years after the last LP, Brujerizmo was released, which incorporated Nicholas Barker as a second drummer, Jesse Pintado on the guitar and Gaby Dominguez, as "Pititis", who represents a female demon as the female vocalist. The next release was a compilation, called '' Mextremist! Greatest Hits'', released in 2001, which included classic tracks, alternate versions, remixes, a multimedia track with video, and some new themes, such as the collaboration with Mucho Muchacho on "Narco-Peda" and "Asesino" which featured Tony Campos of

Hiatus and projects (2002–2006)

2002 came with many plans for the band, first they went to record new material for their eagerly awaited fourth album. However, this seems to have been put on hold due to altercations between Cazares and Herrera related to the temporary breakup of Fear Factory. Herrera departed Brujeria in 2002, shortly before Fear Factory reformed without Cazares. The band then announced the launch of various side-projects for each of the band members, starting with

In 2006, there was news from the band with the release of ''The Singles'' which is a revival of the EP and singles of the band and the beginning of a new global concert tour known as "No Seas Pendejo Tour" that began in Buenos Aires, Argentina on January 28 and also included the presentation in Vive Latino 2006 in Mexico featuring two new members:
