Pocho Aztlan is the fourth studio album by American extreme metal band Brujeria, released on September 16, 2016 through Nuclear Blast. This is the first full-length studio album by Brujeria since Brujerizmo, marking the longest gap between the band's studio albums. It is also the first release featuring El Cynico, El Sangrón and Cuernito.

Pocho Aztlan marks the return of their older grindcore sound from early releases, like Matando Güeros, while maintaining the groove-oriented sound the band explored in Brujerizmo.
