HOCICO return with new single & video 'The Screen'

21st of March 2025, 15:16

Hocico, the iconic Mexican electro-industrial duo known for their raw, aggressive sound and thought-provoking lyrics, return with a blistering new single, The Screen. As the duo delivers a scathing critique of modern society's darker side, focusing on the cruelty and cowardice that thrive behind the anonymity of digital screens.

The lyrics of The Screen are a direct attack on the toxic behaviour of online trolls and keyboard warriors who hide behind their devices to spread hate and venom. Aicrag's words paint a vivid picture of a "coward's kingdom," where faceless individuals wield their keyboards like weapons, attacking others while remaining shielded from accountability. Lines like "You spit your filth, while you're unseen" and "Your boldness dies when we're eye to eye" expose the hypocrisy of those who project false strength online but crumble in the face of real-world confrontation.
The song's chorus, "You lie, you dream, you live behind the screen," drives home the central theme: the disconnect between the digital personas people create and the reality of their insecurities. Aicrag's raw, impassioned delivery amplifies the frustration and anger at a society that allows such behaviour to flourish.
Musically, The Screen is classic Hocico—pulsing industrial beats, distorted synths, and a relentless energy that mirrors the intensity of the lyrics. It's a track that not only resonates with the band's longtime fans but also speaks to anyone who has witnessed or experienced the cruelty of online interactions.
In The Screen, Hocico holds up a mirror to the digital age, challenging listeners to confront the ugliness that often lurks behind the glow of our devices. It's a powerful anthem for a society grappling with the consequences of its own virtual facades.

This album isn’t about bashing religion and faith. That would be a pretty cheap trick.
