Horcas is an Argentine heavy metal band with a storied history in the Latin American metal scene. Formed in 1988, the group emerged from the bustling underground music culture of Buenos Aires, and quickly distinguished themselves with their aggressive sound and potent lyrics. The band has undergone numerous lineup changes throughout its tenure, most notably the tragic death of founder and guitarist Osvaldo Civile in 1997. Despite such setbacks, Horcas has shown remarkable resilience, continuing to produce music and perform live, becoming a venerable institution in the world of Spanish-speaking heavy metal.

Their discography is a testament to their longevity and evolution as a band. With titles like "Mundo Caos," "Gritando Verdades," "Por Tu Honor," and "La Maldicion Continua," Horcas has consistently delivered powerful, hard-hitting albums that confront societal and political themes. The release "Eternos" pays homage to their enduring presence in the industry, while live recordings such as "Vivo en TECNOPOLIS" and performances from Teatro Flores in 2022 capture the raw energy and connection with fans that have become a hallmark of their storied career. By breathing new life into classic tracks with live offerings and paying tribute to influential peers with covers like "Preso en Mi Ciudad" by Los Redondos, Horcas maintains their significance in the ever-changing metal landscape.
