Brujerizmo is the third studio album by Brujeria. This record featured a more groove-oriented style, with a clear and refined sound as opposed to the deathgrind style of the previous albums. The album also marked the last release composed of new material by the band released by Roadrunner Records. It is also the last release with founding members Asesino and Güero Sin Fe.

Reception

CMJ (2/12/01, p. 37) - "Machete death metal...more venomous and hotter than a Habanero pepper....Juan Brujo's growling political rants strike out against hate, racism and xenophobia."

Brujerizmo

Melody Maker (11/28/00, p. 52) - 3.5 stars out of 5 - "Wonderfully demented thrash....this is south-of-the-border murderous noise, absolutely bereft of anything approaching accessibility....here's a record your parents will worry about you owning."

Brujerizmo

NME (12/9/00, p. 45) - 8 out of 10 - "They take a hyper-violent idea to its logical, bowel-churning and comically thrilling end."
