A.N.I.M.A.L.

A.N.I.M.A.L. (Acosados Nuestros Indios Murieron Al Luchar) (meaning Harassed, Our Indians Died While Fighting) was a Groove metal band from Argentina.

The band was founded by the singer and guitarist Andrés Giménez in 1992 under the name of "Animal", but due to legal issues the name was changed to the spelling A.N.I.M.A.L. The band's sound is Groove Metal , (then changed to Nu Metal), and most lyrics deal with issues of ethnic minorities and indigenous people of Latin America; witnessed by song titles such as Sólo Por Ser Indios ("Only For Being Indian"), Guerra De Razas ("Race War"), Poder Latino ("Latin Power") and Raza Castigada ("Punished Race").
