Loco is a single by the band Coal Chamber. It is the best known song of the band and is considered one of their best songs[1][2]. It mixes a nu metal style drum and bass line with an industrial sounding guitar and the 'darker' lyrics and singing style that the band were known for.
[edit] Music video
The video starts off with the ice cream truck (which is on the cover of the album Coal Chamber) rounding a turn and slowly coming to a stop with the beginning of the song playing. When Fafara says the opening line of "Pull", a crazed ice cream truck driver gets off the truck and heads into a nearby house which is home to the members of Coal Chamber. One by one, the driver hunts them down and forces them to stare into a View Master, which shows Coal Chamber performing the song. At the end of the video, the driver has tied the band members to chairs in the basement of the house and has attached a View Master to each member's head with duct tape. The driver then leaves the house and drives away.
The truck driver is played by Ozzy Osbourne. He appeared in this video after the band had played his Ozzfest tour in 1996, and later dueted with the band on shock the monkey, a cover of the Peter Gabriel song[3].
