What do you get if you cross mariachi with the raw vibes of heavy metal? Why, Metalachi, of course! A quintet of classically trained Mariachi musicians, the genius of Metalachi was born when the group was required to add some metal to the setlist. Magic was clearly made that night, and here we are! Combining the flamboyancy of bands like Queen and Guns N'Roses with some good heavy mental humor and outlandish costumes, Metalachi is here to put on a show!

This Japanese metal band formed in 1997 and as of 2014, have recorded nine full-length records with a lineup consistent since starting out. The band are known for embracing tendencies of American metal and nu metal (having participated in Korn's Family Values Tour), as well as other sonic and musical elements that extend into other musical subgenres.
