Fuerza Regida, an influential group in the regional Mexican music scene, has publicly announced the launch of their highly anticipated new album, 111XPANTIA. This release is scheduled for May 2, 2025, and will definitely break new ground for Mexican music while staying true to the band’s signature sound.

A title with cultural roots

Spelled "ixpantia," the name of the album comes from Náhuatl, an indigenous language—a choice that reflects Fuerza Regida’s deep connection to Mexican culture. While the group is known for blending corridos tumbados with modern musical trends such as reggaeton and trap, 111XPANTIA appears to express a more philosophical and artistic side of them.
