Mexican electro-industrial pioneers Hocico return with “The Screen,” a scathing new single that takes direct aim at the toxicity of the digital world. Known for their aggressive beats and uncompromising lyrics, Hocico delivers a powerful critique of online cruelty, exposing the cowardice and deception that thrive behind the anonymity of a screen.
🔹 A Brutal Callout of Digital Deception 🔹
“You spit your filth, while you’re unseen” – With “The Screen,” Hocico paints a vivid portrait of the internet’s darker corners, where trolls and keyboard warriors attack from the shadows without facing real consequences. The lyrics cut deep, unmasking the false boldness of those who hide behind their devices, only to crumble when faced with real-world confrontation.
The chorus, “You lie, you dream, you live behind the screen,” encapsulates the disconnect between digital personas and real-life insecurities, a theme vocally charged by Erk Aicrag’s impassioned delivery.
🎹 Classic Hocico Energy with a Modern Edge 🔥
Musically, “The Screen” is pure, unrelenting Hocico – pounding industrial beats, distorted synths, and an intensity that mirrors the song’s scathing message. The track blends the duo’s signature dark electronic style with a modern, urgent sound, ensuring it hits hard for longtime fans and new listeners alike.
🔻 Facing the Reality of the Digital Age 🔻
Hocico doesn’t just create music—they hold a mirror to society, forcing listeners to confront the cruelty lurking behind digital facades. “The Screen” serves as a wake-up call, demanding awareness of how the online world enables false identities and unaccountable aggression.
