Rabia Sorda (translated: "Deaf Rage") is the side project of Erk Aicrag, lead singer of the Mexican aggrotech band Hocico.
With these releases Garcia began to realize more of his vision for creating a new style separate of Hocico, with greater rock and punk influences and emphasis on melody.
[1] For the next set of releases, the 2012 single "Eye M the Blacksheep"[7] (mastered by Eric Van Wonterghem of Absolute Body Control and Insekt) and the 2013 album Hotel Suicide,[8] Erik began to work with additional musicians and evolve Rabia Sorda from a solo project into a band.
[11] By the time of the release of the double album The World Ends Today in 2018, the band realized Garcia's vision of a departure from the Hocico sound, with the blending of metal, punk, and industrial music styles.
[12] For World Ends the band, now a trio of Garcia, Engel, and "Maxx" on drums, worked with German guitarist and producer Nils Lesser to create a more guitar-driven, aggressive sound than was found in previous releases.
