M-16 is a Latin Hardcore band that blows away all stereotypes of Latinos in Metal music.
In 2001 the band release a video for their track La Sangre Que Corre En Mis Venas shot by veteran director David Capurso. The full-length album Canciones Escritas En El Exilio soon followed, along with many outings to support the release including tours in Puerto Rico, Santo Domingo, and in Houston and Dallas opening for Los Angeles del Infierno. "La Sangre Que corre En Mis Venas"

Scathing, pulsing, louder than hell, M-16's music is at times bombastic and scalding yet poetic in style and nature. Unapologetic lyrics sung entirely in Spanish, scream and whisper tales of mortal disillusion, political terror, and the chaos of modern times. A band that firmly believes in substance over style, M-16 is all the angst and frustration of real people channeled through guitars, drums and bass.

Currently the band is composed of original member Daniel Estrella, drummer Jeff Ortiz, and guitarist Marcos Medina. They are playing local shows and working on the next record.
