Hidekel

**Hidekel** is a Mexican Christian metal band that’s been rocking the scene since the early 2000s, blending metalcore intensity with melodic hooks and faith-driven lyrics. Hailing from Monterrey, the band’s name nods to biblical roots (referencing a "measure of gold" in the Old Testament), and their music often tackles themes of spiritual struggle, hope, and social justice. Tracks like "Sangre Inocente" and "XII Puertas" showcase their signature mix of crushing riffs, guttural vocals, and soaring clean choruses, while their 2017 album *XII Puertas* solidified their reputation as stalwarts of Latin American Christian metal.

Known for high-energy live shows and a loyal following across Latin America, Hidekel stays true to their DIY ethos, releasing music independently and connecting deeply with fans through raw, honest storytelling. Recent releases like "Ojos Altivos" and "Mentira" keep their sound fresh without straying from their core mission: merging faith and fury in every breakdown. Whether you’re here for the mosh pits or the message, Hidekel’s music packs a punch that resonates long after the last note fades.
