What's up you maniacs?
Just 2 months to go until the release of "Enigma". We
realize it's been a long wait and we appreciate your
patience more than you'll ever know. The 8th is here
once again. Hopefully you've been digging the songs so
far. The track this month is "Hot Summer's Tragedy".
I can't really pick a favorite from "Enigma" but I can
definitely say that this track is one of them. You
guys know that we love to challenge ourselves when it
comes to writing songs that don't sound the same and
have their own identity. This song in particular was
so much fun to record. However, don't think you've
heard it all just yet because "Enigma" still has some
really cool surprises left. Go check it out and I hope
"Hot Summer's Tragedy" finds it's way into your hearts
as it did into mine. You can find the lyrics on
ILLNINO.COM.
This week we will be finalizing the video for "The
Alibi of Tyrants". You'll get to check that out very
soon. It was filmed in Germany during our last
European tour and it is being edited in L.A. right
now. Also, two nights ago we began filming the video
for "Me Gusta La Soledad". If you are a fan of Latin
music, that song is going to rock your world. In
December we will be shooting the video for "Pieces of
the Sun". That's another really dope track. Like I
said, don't think you've heard it all just yet. We'll
see you all very soon. The "Enigma" world tour is
being booked right now so look out for more news on
that within the next couple of weeks. Enjoy the music
and keep it real fuckers!!!!!!!
Keep your eyes out for the new video from Ill Nino. The video, shot this past November in Los Angeles is for the track “Me Gusta La Soledad”, should begin popping up on Latin video outlets in the next month or so.
The video for Ill Nino’s “The Alibi Of Tyrants” is out now. Check it out onYouTube or on Ill Nino’s MySpace page. The video has shot at last year’s With Full Force Festival in Germany as the band played the main stage in front of 35,000 screaming fans.
Ill Nino is just about to wrap up a European tour. The tour, which took them all throughout Western Europe and the UK, along with a few shows in Eastern Europe, was a huge success and satiated the international Ill Nino fans’ lust for the band’s own brand of Latin-tinged metal. After returning to the States for a few weeks of well-earned rest, the band will once again hit the road for a tour throughout Latin America.
We're going to celebrate the New Year and update everyone on

You may have seen some tour dates posted on the PRP and Blabbermouth that say we are playing with Bobaflex in January and February, these are not the correct final dates for the Ill Niño headlining tour. The correct dates will be announced next week, and yes we are going to be touring the U.S. mid January to the end of February with some great bands, who we will also announce next week. Have a great and healthy holiday season!
